GO AI Chat — Accessibility
Our commitment
GO AI Chat is built by a small independent studio, and we want it to be usable by everyone — including people who rely on VoiceOver, Voice Control, Reduced Motion, or other assistive technologies. We build against Apple's accessibility guidelines and WCAG 2.1 contrast targets, run an automated contrast audit on our color palette, and re-review accessibility with each release. This page describes what the app supports today and, just as importantly, what it doesn't yet.
What works today
- VoiceOver. Onboarding, sign-in, Home, chat, chat history, Settings, and the subscription flow are labeled for VoiceOver. Subscription plan buttons announce their real duration and price and report which plan is selected. Purely decorative animations are hidden so they don't interrupt reading. Response actions — Copy, Good response, Bad response, Read aloud — are announced as named buttons.
- Voice Control. The same named controls make the core flows completable by voice: finishing onboarding, signing in, starting a chat, attaching an image, dictating and sending a message, managing settings, and completing or dismissing a purchase.
- Reduced Motion. With Reduce Motion turned on, decorative animation stops throughout the app: buttons don't pulse, typewriter titles appear instantly, orbiting model icons park in place, carousels stop auto-advancing, and generation placeholders hold still. Indicators that convey real information — progress spinners and the live voice waveform — are kept.
- Dark interface. The entire app uses a dark color scheme, designed and audited against WCAG 2.1 contrast targets (primary text is roughly 20:1 against the background).
- Not color alone. Selection and state are paired with a second cue beyond color — checkmarks, radio marks, visible titles, or shape changes — so they don't depend on color perception.
- Built-in assists. Any AI response can be spoken aloud with the Read aloud action, the chat input supports dictation, and Voice Mode offers a fully hands-free, two-way spoken conversation.
Using accessibility features with GO AI Chat
There are no separate accessibility switches inside the app — it follows your system settings automatically. Turn features on under Settings → Accessibility on iPhone and iPad, or System Settings → Accessibility on Mac, and GO AI Chat picks up VoiceOver, Voice Control, and Reduce Motion the next time the relevant screen appears. The app always runs in its dark theme, so it stays legible regardless of your Light/Dark appearance choice.
Known limitations we're working on
We'd rather tell you about the gaps than have you discover them. As of the review date above:
- Studio editing tools. The color-adjustment controls in Studio and the image mask editor currently rely on touch gestures (a pan-based value ruler and freeform drawing) and are not yet fully operable with VoiceOver or Voice Control. Adjustable, voice-friendly replacements are in development.
- Larger Text. Dynamic Type is supported in chat message text but does not yet scale every screen of the app.
- Label translations. Some VoiceOver labels may be announced in English in non-English locales until their translations ship.
- Captions. Generated videos and Voice Mode conversations do not currently provide captions.
