Summary
This Success Criterion ensures users can navigate and operate web functions using only gestures, like a single tap or swipe. Complex gestures or requiring a device to be used in a specific way can make digital content inaccessible for some users, especially those with motor disabilities.
Lyrics
VERSE 1:
Listen up, SC 2.5.1 is what we’re preachin’ today
Some users can’t pinch or swipe in a specific way
Path-based gestures got some people stuck
When tech demands complex moves, many users get out of luck
Head-pointers, eye-gaze systems need another route
Single-point operation is what this rule’s about
CHORUS:
One touch wonder, that’s the way to go
Make it work with a single tap, yo
Don’t lock out those who can’t do complex moves
Give alternatives so everyone can use
One touch wonder, accessibility’s rule
Single pointer options make your interface cool
VERSE 2:
Map needs zooming? Don’t just rely on pinch
Add those plus and minus buttons, don’t leave users in a pinch
Sliders should work with simple clicks too
Not just path-specific gestures that some can’t do
Multi-point and tricky swipes might be trendy and sleek
But they block out many users who need interfaces unique
Test on touchscreens, mouse, and different tools
Make sure your design follows accessibility rules
CHORUS:
One touch wonder, that’s the way to go
Make it work with a single tap, yo
Don’t lock out those who can’t do complex moves
Give alternatives so everyone can use
One touch wonder, accessibility’s rule
Single pointer options make your interface cool
