Accessibility – web and mobile applications for everyone
Accessible design is the key to inclusion and quality. We consider the WCGA 2.2 standards and develop in accordance with the European Accessibility Act 2025.

Accessibility is an essential aspect of app development, ensuring that every individual, regardless of their abilities or limitations, can enjoy an excellent user experience.

Accessibility Reinforcement Act 2025
From June 28, 2025, the European Accessibility Reinforcement Act will come into force, which is intended to promote the equal and non-discriminatory participation of people with disabilities, disabilities and older people.
The law will then stipulate that apps and websites that offer services such as e-commerce, travel services or visual media from companies with a turnover of more than 2 million euros and more than 10 employees must be accessible at WCAG level AA.
At Hybrid Heroes, we have always considered accessibility as part of our UX/UI design process. We follow the WCAG guidelines and aim for AA level for every application, which will be mandatory from 2025.
With our experience in designing and developing accessible products, we can help you ensure that your service meets accessibility standards.
