Can all functions of the application or service be performed using only the keyboard?
Explanation
Example Responses
Example Response 1
Yes, our application is fully keyboard accessible All interactive elements can be navigated to using the Tab key, activated using Enter or Space, and operated using appropriate keyboard shortcuts We've implemented visible focus indicators that meet WCAG 2.1 AA standards to show users which element currently has keyboard focus Our development team conducts regular keyboard-only testing as part of our quality assurance process, and we maintain a comprehensive set of keyboard shortcuts documentation for users We've also implemented ARIA landmarks and skip navigation links to improve keyboard navigation efficiency.
Example Response 2
Yes, our service supports complete keyboard accessibility All functionality can be accessed and operated using standard keyboard controls (Tab, Enter, Space, arrow keys) and custom keyboard shortcuts where appropriate We've implemented enhanced focus management to ensure users always know where they are in the interface, with high-contrast focus indicators Our application has been tested using screen readers in keyboard-only mode, and we've addressed all identified issues For complex interactions like drag-and-drop, we provide equivalent keyboard alternatives using cut/copy/paste operations or arrow key positioning.
Example Response 3
No, our current application version does not support full keyboard accessibility for all functions While basic navigation and form submission can be performed with a keyboard, our interactive data visualization components and certain custom widgets require mouse interaction We recognize this as a gap in our accessibility compliance and have prioritized keyboard accessibility in our development roadmap We expect to release an update within the next quarter that will implement keyboard controls for all interactive elements, including our visualization tools In the meantime, we offer alternative accessible views of the data for users who cannot use a mouse.
