They have taken a step backwards in terms of being accessible in this release. There now several areas with in the app that have unlabell buttons. Plus, there are segments that does not appear to work or they are difficult to use.

Actually the linked in app is very much accessible. I used it to reply to apply to jobs, plus reply to messages. Here is the I did and submitted to the linkedin team pointing out the problems as well as the working parts.
When you receive a reply to your message all you need to do is reply to it via email. I have mine set up so I get messages in my email in box and I reply, it goes to the other person's linked in email and so on. It's way more convenient that way.

How is the current version of this app?
#15 Not accessible
Submitted by Dave82 on
The accessibility rating on this app is extremely generous. It is far from fully accessible. There are unlabelled buttons, inconsistencies and poor usability throughout the app. Very disappointing.
#16 How is the access for this app?
Submitted by Jesus R on
Hi, I downloaded the linked in app, and seemed to be fine, on the sign in screen anyway, but I don't know if the rest is accessible because it wanted me to fill in words from an image on the screen. Is this new? Is the app accessible at this point after this screen?
Any help and comments would be welcome.
#17 Accessible
Submitted by Andy B. on
The only problem I have with the app is that the button to follow or unfollow a person is not labeled. VO will say something like "not selected button." Otherwise, no problems at all.
#18 has it improved?
Submitted by Teresa blaes on
I am hoping the app is truly accessable, as its crap on the computer. I can't do much with it unless I go for the regular site, and not the moble. have they fixed the problems with the app? thanks, Teresa
#19 WHere have the skills, recommendations etc gone?
Submitted by Aidan JK on
In the last few weeks I've not been able to find the skills, endorsements and recommendations part of profiles. 3-finger swiping routinely announces 2 pages and flicking to the second seems to send scrolling all over the place. I keep trying but not sure what I'm missing, if anything.
