ABSTRACT

Even though there is a consideration of the importance of mobile accessibility, an investigation of accessibility functions of mobile devices and their accessibility level has been not conducted yet. In this study, two smartphone operation systems, iOS and Android, were selected and their accessibility functions and accessability level were investigated based on a survey with mobile device developers. As results, excepts for the functions related with keyboard, operation, and battery, the accessibility functions of iOS and Android and their accessibility level were pretty low. Several ways to improve accessibility functions and accessibility level of smartphone were discussed.
