Accessibility at Pickly

We want everyone to be able to compare products on Pickly, whatever device, browser or assistive technology they use. This page explains the tools built into the site and how to tell us about a problem.

The accessibility panel

Every page has a round accessibility button in the bottom-right corner. Your choices are saved on this device and apply to every page until you reset them.

Quick profiles
One tap sets several options for low vision, dyslexia, motion sensitivity, focus or keyboard use.
Text size
Enlarge all text up to 175% without zooming the whole page.
Line height and spacing
Add space between lines, letters and words to make text easier to follow.
Readable font
Switch to Atkinson Hyperlegible, a font designed to make letters easier to tell apart.
Contrast
Choose dark mode, high contrast (black on white) or inverted colours.
Colour saturation
Soften colours or show the site in greyscale.
Highlight links and headings
Underline and outline every link, and outline headings to show the page structure.
Focus outline
Show a thick yellow outline around whatever the keyboard is on.
Reading guide and mask
A line or a clear band follows your pointer to help keep your place.
Stop animations
Turn off movement and transitions. We also follow your device's reduce-motion setting.
Big cursor and hide images
A larger mouse pointer, or hide pictures to reduce distraction.
Read aloud
Hear the page, or just the text you select, using your device's built-in voice.
On this page
A list of the page's headings so you can jump straight to a section.

Using a keyboard

  • Press Tab on any page to reveal the "Skip to main content" and "Accessibility options" links.
  • Menus, dialogs and panels can be closed with Esc, and focus returns to where you were.
  • Your browser's zoom (Ctrl / ⌘ and +) works on every page.

The Pickly app

You can add Pickly to your phone, tablet or computer like an app. It opens in its own window, starts faster, and pages you've opened before keep working without a connection.

  • Android, Chrome or Edge: use the install button below, or "Install app" in the browser menu.
  • iPhone and iPad: in Safari, tap Share, then "Add to Home Screen".

Offline, prices and stock aren't updated — always check the retailer before you buy.

Known limitations

  • Some product photos come from retailers and have short descriptions based on the product name.
  • Retailer websites we link to, such as Amazon.co.uk, have their own accessibility and are outside our control.
  • Read aloud depends on the voices installed on your device and may not be available in every browser.

Our standard and feedback

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA. Pickly has not yet had a formal independent accessibility audit, so we can't claim full conformance.

If something is hard to use, email hello@pickly.uk with the page address and what happened. See also our contact and corrections page.
