Description

Users upload presentations in PowerPoint or PDF format. They can then create audio narration and synchronise it to the slides - text descriptions can be added and privacy levels chosen.

Accessibility Testing Results

Text edit boxes are accessible in the main areas linked to uploading slides but some aspects of the main pages fail. The player appears to be only usable with a keyboard in certain browsers such as Internet Explorer. Tab order does not make it easy to reach the player early on in the page. Zoom allows for easy reading and contrast levels are good.

# Test Score Summary
