Our commitment
Weekscope should work for everyone who uses it: people who use a screen reader or only a keyboard, people with dyslexia or ADHD, people who are Deaf or hard of hearing, people with low vision, limited hand use, chronic illness, or anything else that shapes how they work and study. We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA.
This statement covers the Weekscope app and this website, at mrmaxdesigns.com/weekscope.
How Weekscope measures up
Weekscope is partly conformant with WCAG 2.2 AA: most of it meets the standard, and the parts that don’t yet are listed below, with what you can do instead. It hasn’t been checked by an independent auditor yet; we plan to have it audited.
What helps
Most of these are in Settings → Accessibility, saved to your account so they follow you to every device.
- Keyboard: almost everything works with the keyboard alone (the exception is below), focus is clearly shown, and the things you do every day have shortcuts, listed in Help → Keyboard shortcuts. Escape closes dialogs and quiets the orb.
- Screen readers: buttons, fields and sections are labelled, and changes (a timer starting, a toast, what the orb says) are announced.
- The orb, and reading aloud: tap the orb for a spoken word about the page you’re on, or your day’s briefing. A speaker button reads reports, tasks and messages aloud. Choose its voice (American, British, West African or Indian English) and its speed.
- Captions: everything the orb says is also shown as text, word by word. Turn its voice off for captions only.
- Speak an entry: say what you did instead of typing it.
- Text size (up to a quarter larger), high contrast in light and dark, and easier reading (more space between letters, words and lines).
- Less movement: Weekscope follows your device’s reduced-motion setting, and a calm orb has no sparks, bobbing or pulsing.
- Flexible hours: when you start or stop is never marked late, and never counts against your points. Only you know it’s on.
- Not by colour alone: statuses, missed days and warnings always have words and icons as well as colour.
- Light and dark themes, including Day & night, which switches at the times you choose.
What doesn’t work well yet
We know about these, and we’re working on them:
- Putting tasks in order by dragging needs a mouse or touch. Most other moves (to the Icebox, to another day, done) are in each task’s menu, which works with a keyboard. Sorting by priority or points is a keyboard-friendly alternative.
- Charts (Daily activity, the Day flow timeline, the year calendar) are drawn for the eye. The numbers they show are written beside them, but the charts themselves aren’t fully described to screen readers.
- PDF exports aren’t tagged PDFs, so screen readers may read them poorly. Use Copy as text, or read the report aloud, instead.
- Speak an entry works in Chrome, Edge and Safari, not Firefox. The orb’s recorded voice is in English only, and reading aloud uses the voices on your device, which vary.
- Reading screenshots (filling an entry in from one) can misread text: always check what it fills in.
- The live previews on this website’s pages show the app running, to look at rather than use. Each has a written description.
How we check
Weekscope’s automated tests find buttons, fields and pages by their accessible names and roles, as a screen reader would, so a missing label fails them. We also check new work with the keyboard alone, in light and dark, with reduced motion, and with larger text. This is our own testing, not an independent audit.
Tell us
If something in Weekscope is hard to use, or you need something in another format, email max@mrmaxdesigns.com (or send feedback from the app: Feedback, in the sidebar). Tell us what you were trying to do, what got in the way, and the device, browser and any assistive technology you use.
We aim to reply within five working days, and to fix what we can, or find you another way to do the same thing.
If you’re not happy with our reply
You can contact the organisation that handles accessibility and equality complaints where you live. In the UK, that’s the Equality Advisory and Support Service (EASS).

Prepared on 23 October 2026, from our own testing. We review it whenever Weekscope changes in a way that affects accessibility.
