Great idea but it isn’t disability friendly

After reading the specialist reviews on venues I still couldn’t tell you if a building was or wasn’t accessible to me as a disabled person so it needs work before it’s helpful.

A bit like going to a chip shop and they don’t have any chips.

Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. We're sorry that the information provided on our App didn't tell you what you needed to know about accessibility. We aim to provide the detailed information you need to decide if a venue is accessible to you, and collect over 1000 pieces of information per venue. If you'd like to provide further feedback so we can investigate, you can reach us by email on hello@AccessAble.co.uk

Good idea but…

No participation, data or interest to keep this app alive. Almost no data in their database. Nice try though.

Really useful

Great app however the pictures are quite small so it would be nice to be able to zoom into them to really see them closer and see what the area is like

Response from developer

Thank you for the great review - we're so glad that you've found the app helpful. We are looking into the possibility of larger images and will aim to include these in future app updates.

Not working again

The search engine is not working again and it’s not searching anything in any city working only when you leave blank field
The search engine showing on the results in your current location but when you type different city name it shows nothing

Hi - thanks for the update. So that we can try and fix the issue, could you please let us know which cities you have searched for? You can contact us by email on hello@AccessAble.co.uk -- thank you!

Would love this to work for me, but it doesn’t

Using iPhone. Have tried to search using the app, but when inputting the details (type & location required) nothing shows up on the input screen - though I can see from the cursor movement that something is being registered as input. Clicked to search anyway, screen said ‘searching’, but nothing actually loaded. Tried from the web browser, was able to input details visibly, but clicking ‘Search’ produced an error coded ‘500’. Hoping the developer can look at this and work out where the problem lies. I SO want the site to work for me - but it just doesn’t.

Hi ShropshireJo, thanks so much for feeding back. Would you be happy to send us some screenshots so we can investigate? You can reach me by email on hello@AccessAble.co.uk.

Just what we needed!

First of all I would like to say a huge thank you for all the work that has gone into creating the Accessable app, it has been particularly useful when we have been out and about in helping to locate Changing places bathrooms for my son and meant that we are able to longer enjoy days out as a family without constantly worrying about changing facilities.
I came across your site after a particularly difficult holiday last year when lack of access had a major impact on our holiday. Whilst I was there I thought of setting up something exactly like you have to make life easier as I am convinced it shouldn't always have to be such a challenge. Anyway, luckily for me and many others Accessable has already done all the work in the UK so I will be sharing your resource with others in the various groups I am involved in.
The app covers a wide range of access needs but if your particular need isn’t covered the developers seem keen to ensure it is covered in the future.

A great tool for disabled people to plan journeys

I believe this app is a great tool for all disabled people. It gives clear and simple information on what accessibility features are or are not available in a particular place.

After trying out the app, I would suggest having maps of the venue and a GPS system included. Although the app does have the names of streets and particular entrances and areas of a venue (e.g Porchester Square), it isn’t always clear where that is within the location. This is particularly difficult for those with sight loss, like myself, who cannot read a regular size map or view signs within the venue.

Great app!

This is a really great and useful app, makes such a difference knowing exactly what facilities are available before I go out and about! No more anxiety and a sense of independence and freedom! 100% would recommend!

Brilliant Resource for Disabled People

AccessAble is exactly what disabled people have been looking for.

Far too often access information is limited, non existent and wrong. This save so much time, effort and stress.

It provides more option and easier access for disabled people.

I love the fact that the app caters to as many needs as possible to support as many people, with many kinds of disability.

It is clear that a lot of thought, research, time and discussion with disabled people has gone into this app which is exactly how it should be.

I am excited to see what happens in the future of AccessAble.

I highly recommend this app if you are disabled, support someone who is etc.
