Resumo
Mobile devices are the tools of the trade to access services and contents on the Internet, already surpassing their desktop counterparts. These gadgets are always available and provide access to social networks, messaging, games, productivity tools, among many others. Accessing the Web with mobile devices, either through a browser or a native application, has become more than a perk; it is a need. Such relevance has increased the need for provide accessible mobile webpages and (Web and native) applications; failing to do so would exclude people with different abilities from a world of opportunities. In this chapter, we focus our attention on the specific challenges of mobile devices for accessibility, and how those have been addressed in the development and evaluation of mobile interfaces and contents. We finish with a discussion on future directions in the field, that outlines the need to learn from the fast emergence of a mobile world, and be prepared for the impact of other upcoming technologies.
