No account required.

ADD & IMPROVE LISTINGS Submit a place you love, or flag info that's out of date, to help keep the directory accurate for the next person. ACCESSIBLE FROM THE START Most apps bolt accessibility on at the end. This one was designed around it: - Dark mode - Adjustable font sizes - High contrast mode - Bold text option - Color blind mode - Available in English and Spanish OUR STORY Disabled Directory was created by Disabled Adventures LLC, a disabled-founded company in Ozark, Missouri. After a back injury changed how our founder moves through the world, he saw how hard it is to simply find out whether a place will work for you — so he built the app he wished existed. Every feature comes from real, lived experience. DISABLED DIRECTORY PRO (OPTIONAL) The whole app is free. If you'd like extra tools and want to support an independent, disabled-owned project, Pro adds a personal Health Manager to track your medications and appointments, offline access to your saved places, and more. Your support keeps this app growing for the entire community. No ads. No account needed to get started. Just real help, built by someone who needs it too. contact@disableddirectory.org YouTube: @DisabledAdventures13 Accessibility information is community- and business-provided and can change — always call ahead to confirm. This app is for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for medical, legal, or professional advice. Disabled Directory is free to use. Disabled Directory Pro is an optional auto-renewable subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID settings.
