01
Accessible list alternative
Every compass destination also appears as a named, focusable row.
Ember & Word
A visual compass with a clear list beside it.
The distinctive interaction remains optional—not a barrier—and participation stays voluntary.
Adult-first access
Choice, clarity, and more than one way to navigate.
The visual Ember Compass is paired with a complete named module list. Buttons have visible labels and practical touch targets. Content keeps one idea per section, plain headings, consistent page grammar, and explicit Previous and Next controls.
02
Meaningful descriptions
Core images have concise descriptions; decoration stays out of the accessibility tree.
03
Large-text resilience
Content scrolls vertically and avoids fixed-height body-copy rows.
04
Motion choice
The site respects reduced motion; app changes are brief and do not block use.
05
Pass without penalty
Gathering and family prompts allow a pause, pass, or different view.
06
No person profile
The app creates no child, family, faith, attendance, or behavioral profile.
Family boundary
Family prompts remain adult-led.
Ember & Word is written primarily for adults. An adult may choose a family-conversation prompt, but remains responsible for age-appropriate language, supervision, consent, developmental needs, and real-world safeguarding.
No youth management.
The app has no youth account, messaging, precise location, attendance, incident log, case note, public profile, follower system, or one-to-one adult-youth contact.
