Our commitment
Homies is built for people navigating an unfamiliar country — accessibility is core to that mission. We aim to conform to the Israeli accessibility standard (IS 5568, based on WCAG 2.0 Level AA) across the application.
What we've done
- Semantic structure, labeled controls and keyboard-reachable actions.
- High-contrast text on all surfaces and a scalable, responsive layout.
- English is the currently selectable interface language. Hebrew right-to-left support exists in the codebase but is marked coming soon while translation quality is reviewed.
- Where the meetups map is used, a list view of the same events is always available as an accessible alternative.
- Independent automated audits (Lighthouse accessibility score 98/100 as of July 2026).
Known limitations
Homies is an evolving pilot. Some newer screens (chat, the map, and recently added flows) have not yet had a full manual audit with assistive technology, and the embedded Google map is a third-party component whose accessibility we don't fully control — which is why a list alternative is always offered.
