Accessibility statement

Last updated: October 13, 2026

This statement applies to the vareadyapp.com website and to VA Ready on iOS and Vet Ready on Android, the same software product released under different names per platform.

Our commitment

Many veterans who use VA Ready live with disabilities that affect vision, hearing, motor control or cognition. We work to make the app and website usable with the assistive technology they rely on.

We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, the standard referenced by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act.

Measures we take

• Semantic, structured HTML so screen readers can navigate headings, lists, and landmarks
• Descriptive text alternatives for meaningful images and icons
• Color combinations chosen for sufficient contrast against our dark theme
• Layouts that reflow and remain usable on phones, tablets, and at increased text sizes, including full-screen, larger-touch-target views on iPad and Android tablets
• In the app, support for the platform's built-in accessibility features (Dynamic Type / font scaling, VoiceOver and TalkBack labels, and system Dark Mode)
• Keyboard-operable navigation on the website

Conformance status

We consider the website and app to be substantially conformant with WCAG 2.1 AA. "Substantially conformant" means most of the content meets the standard, though some parts may not yet fully conform. We review and improve accessibility as the product changes.

Known limitations

Some limitations remain. We are working on third-party embedded content, complex data tables, and checking each new page and feature against the same standard before release. If you find a barrier that is not listed here, tell us and we will add it to the fix list.

Note on content

VA Ready is an independent tool and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. Ratings, benefit estimates, and filing guidance are educational, based on publicly available VA regulations (38 CFR) and documented best practices, and are not legal or medical advice. See our Terms of Service for the full disclaimer.
