Braillito Maps
Read full descriptionHide full description
Braillito Maps is a community map of places that are actually accessible. Apple Maps and Google Maps can tell you where a café is. They can't tell you whether it has a ramp at the door, tactile paving on the way in, or a menu in braille. That information doesn't arrive by satellite — it comes from the people who need it. HOW IT WORKS Add a place with its name, address and a photo, then answer six questions about what it actually has: • Ramp • Wide doorway • Adapted restroom • Tactile paving • Braille signage • Audible signals Every place gets a score out of six, shown as a number and a colour band — never colour on its own. A screen reader reads it out as "Café Rivas, accessibility 4 out of 6". BUILT TO BE USED WITH VOICEOVER The list is not a fallback for the map: it is the accessible view. A map is close to unusable with a screen reader, because pins have no order and nothing to focus. Here every place is a row, in order, with a label that says what it is. WHY IT'S WORTH ADDING A PLACE Nobody should have to travel across the city to find out there are three steps at the entrance. Every place you add spares somebody else that trip. FREE, AND IT STAYS FREE No subscriptions, no in-app purchases, no ads. Braillito Maps shares its account with Braillito, the app for learning braille.
