Small-Screen Reader Optimisation
Use this skill when reviewing the experience of screen reader users on phones. Focus on reducing navigation effort, improving context, and preventing repetitive or disorienting interaction.
Evaluate Navigation Burden
- Count how many swipes or actions are needed to reach common tasks
- Check whether controls have concise, meaningful labels in limited space
- Review repeated elements, nested groups, and long unstructured screens
- Identify hidden context caused by collapsed sections, tabs, or visual-only grouping
Improve Efficiency
- Chunk content into shorter sections with clear headings and landmarks
- Make actions easy to distinguish when announced sequentially
- Reduce redundant announcements and excessive wrapper elements
- Ensure navigation, search, and filtering are reachable without excessive traversal
Output
- Describe where small-screen screen reader use becomes inefficient or confusing
- Recommend structural or labeling changes that reduce effort
- Focus on improvements for frequent and high-value user journeys
