Oracle Accessibility Conformance Report

VPAT® Version 2.0 - October 2017

Name of Product:

Oracle Content and Experience Cloud: Mobile 17.3

Product Description:

The Oracle Content and Experience Cloud Mobile apps provide a mobile view for Android and iOS based devices into the Oracle Content and Experience Cloud.. Document content is organized within the service in a folder hierarchy, and the mobile apps provide a UI to browse through this hierarchy and download documents. It also provides keyword search capabilities and a view of a user’s favorite content.

The Android app is developed as a native Android application using the Java programming language and the Android UI toolkit. As such it is expected to provide the accessibility features detailed in the Android developers documentation: support for navigating the UI through the directional pad (d-pad) and/or a physical keyboard, support for screen reading through TalkBack and Explore by Touch.

The iOS app is developed as a native iOS application using the Objective C programming language and the iOS SDK. At present it does not fully support the accessibility features provided by iOS.

Mobile users with accessibility needs should therefore consider using the Oracle Content and Experience Cloud Android app

Date:

25-Sep-2017

Archive Note:

This VPAT applies to only version 17.3. It does not apply to any versions of Oracle Content and Experience Cloud: Mobile after this. This VPAT has been superseded by Oracle Content and Experience Cloud: Mobile 18.2.

accessible_ww@oracle.com

Notes:

This VPAT does not cover the following product areas:

  • Oracle Content for iOS app (mobile users should consider the Oracle Content for Android app)
  • PDF, Mobi and ePub documentation formats.

There are no steps that a user or administrator must take in order to configure accessibility mode for this app.  Users may need to enable the accessibility features of their Android device. Please refer to your manufacturer's help regarding accessibility settings.

Evaluation Methods Used:

Oracle's policy is to design, develop and test both products and documentation to be accessible. The recommended styles of testing for accessibility include: (i) algorithmic automated tests, (ii) human judgement tests such as tool-assisted tests, visual inspection and manual operation, and (iii) testing with assistive technology by people with and without disabilities. Additional information about Oracle's accessibility program is available on http://www.oracle.com/corporate/accessibility/index.html
