This report from ArcTouch and Fable assesses the accessibility of 50 leading Android and iOS apps across five industries: Food & Delivery, Payments, Fitness, Shopping, and Streaming.

Our analysis of app accessibility reveals a concerning reality: The vast majority of apps are failing users with disabilities.

72% of those who rely on any of the four assistive technologies we tested may have a poor or failing app experience in at least one step of a typical user journey.
