Accessibility

Last updated: March 28, 2026

At Monely, we believe that managing personal finances should be accessible to everyone. We are committed to building an inclusive app that can be used by people with different abilities and needs.

This page describes the accessibility features currently available in Monely and the standards we follow to ensure an inclusive experience.

1. VoiceOver (Screen Reader)

Monely is compatible with Apple VoiceOver, allowing users with visual impairments to navigate the entire app interface without needing to see the screen.

What this means for you

All screens, buttons, controls and interactive elements have descriptive labels that are read aloud by VoiceOver.
You can navigate through the app using gestures or keyboard commands, hearing what each element is and activating it.
All common tasks, actions and functions can be completed using only VoiceOver, without visual assistance.

Who benefits

Users who are blind or have low vision
Users who prefer auditory navigation
Users with temporary visual limitations (e.g. eye surgery recovery)

2. Dark Mode

Monely offers a complete dark interface that can be activated in the app settings or automatically follow your device's system preference.

What this means for you

All screens, dialogs, menus and components are fully adapted to the dark theme.
Text contrast is maintained to ensure readability on dark backgrounds.
Charts, icons and visual elements are optimized for both light and dark modes.

Who benefits

Users with light sensitivity (photophobia)
Users with migraines or chronic headaches triggered by bright screens
Users who prefer to use the app in low-light environments
Anyone who wants to reduce eye strain during extended use

3. Color Differentiation Beyond Color Alone

Monely does not rely solely on color to convey information. All states, values and interactive elements use additional methods such as text labels, icons and patterns to ensure clarity.

What this means for you

Income and expenses are distinguished not only by color (green/red) but also by icons and text labels.
Selection states, errors and alerts use icons and descriptive text in addition to color changes.
Charts include labels and legends that don't depend on color perception alone.

Who benefits

Users with color blindness (affecting approximately 8% of men and 0.5% of women worldwide)
Users with reduced color perception
Users viewing the screen in conditions where colors are hard to distinguish (e.g. direct sunlight)

4. Sufficient Contrast

All text, icons and interactive elements in Monely maintain sufficient contrast ratios against their backgrounds, following accessibility best practices.

What this means for you

Text is legible in both light and dark modes without straining your eyes.
Buttons, links and interactive elements are clearly distinguishable from surrounding content.
Important information is never lost due to low contrast.

Who benefits

Users with low vision
Users with age-related vision changes
Users in challenging lighting conditions (bright sunlight, dim rooms)
Anyone who values clear, readable interfaces

5. Additional Accessibility Features

Beyond the features highlighted above, Monely also includes:

Scalable text: the app respects your device's font size settings, allowing you to increase or decrease text size according to your needs.
Touch targets: buttons and interactive elements have adequate size for comfortable tapping, reducing the chance of accidental touches.
WhatsApp AI integration: users who find it difficult to navigate complex interfaces can record transactions simply by sending a text message, voice note, or photo of a receipt via WhatsApp.
Simple navigation: the app follows a clear, consistent navigation pattern, making it predictable and easy to learn.
