## Support for assistive technology

GOV.UK Frontend will allow you to build services that comply with the [guidance
in the Service Manual](service-manual-assistive-technologies).

Currently, GOV.UK Frontend officially supports the following assistive technology:

| Software                 | Version        | Type               | Browser                  |
|--------------------------|----------------|--------------------|--------------------------|
| JAWS                     | 15 or later    | screen reader      | Internet Explorer 11    |
| ZoomText                 | 10.11 or later | screen magnifier   | Internet Explorer 11    |
| Dragon NaturallySpeaking | 11 or later    | speech recognition | Internet Explorer 11    |
| NVDA                     | 2016 or later  | screen reader      | Firefox (latest)       |
| VoiceOver                | 7.0 or later   | screen reader      | Safari on iOS10 and OS X |

In addition, we test that all content is accessible with keyboard only.

We also aim to support high contrast mode for those users who need to adjust browser colours to increase readability. We have in the past tested this by setting custom colours in Firefox Preferences, and with the [High Contrast](high-contrast-plugin) plugin.
