Accessibility
PillBird should be usable without relying on tiny text, color alone, or complicated interactions. Accessibility is treated as part of the calm experience, not an afterthought.
Design commitments
The app and this website aim for readable type, clear contrast, predictable controls, and touch targets that are comfortable to hit. Calm and accessible go hand in hand — both come from reducing friction and noise.
- Readable text sizes with comfortable line spacing
- Color contrast that holds up in light and dark modes
- Meaning never carried by color alone — labels and icons back it up
- Touch targets large enough to use one-handed
- Predictable navigation and clearly labelled controls
Working with your device
PillBird is built to respect the accessibility settings you already use. It honors your system light or dark theme, and is designed to work with platform features like larger text and screen readers.
Reminders use clear language and standard notification behavior so they work with assistive technology rather than fighting it.
Hands-off support model
Because PillBird is self-serve, accessibility work focuses on making common tasks obvious in the interface itself rather than routing you into a support flow. The best accessible experience is one where you never need to ask for help.
Ongoing work
Accessibility is never fully finished. We treat it as something to keep improving as the app grows, and we welcome reports of anything that's hard to read, hard to reach, or hard to operate.
