Accessibility statement for Prenly
Created 8 Jan 2026
Accessibility statement for Prenly Introduction At Textalk, we work to ensure that our platform is as accessible as possible for all users. This accessibility statement describes which parts of the platform do not meet accessibility requirements, as well as how we work to identify and correct accessibility issues.The statement covers the platform itself, for example:The web application https://thisis.prenly.com/The iOS application Prenly (https://apps.apple.com/us/app/prenly/id6736682103)The Android application Prenly (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.prenly.thisis)Platform and customer adaptationsThe platform strives to follow applicable European accessibility standards, but some parts do not yet fully meet the requirements. Customers can for example customise the platform according to their brand colours, which may affect accessibility. Another example is alt text: the platform enables alt text, but customers are responsible for providing it.We offer guidelines and support to help customers maintain or improve accessibility in their customised versions of the platform.Digital accessibility statusPlatformCompliance levelComments / Key issuesWebsite (base version)Partially compliantA few issues regarding headings, screen reader navigation, and text presented as images.iOS app (base version)Partially compliantA few issues, including with external keyboards.Android app (base version)Partially compliantA few issues, including with system text size settings.Customer versions (customised)⚠️ VariesAccessibility depends on colour choices, alt text, etc. We provide guidance.Technical details and testingThe technical foundation of the platform has been tested against:WCAG 2.1 levels A and AAEN 301 549 (relevant for the European Accessibility Act, EAA)Test methodsAutomated tests using axe DevTools, Lighthouse, and Wave Evaluation Tool on the web applicationManual keyboard navigation testing – all platformsManual contrast testing – all platformsManual testing with screen readers – focus on the web application, partial testing with VoiceOver and Voice Control on iOSLimitations Accessibility issues may occur in:Customer colour choices and layout modificationsCustomer-provided content (e.g., images without alt text, non-descriptive link texts, videos without captions, advertising material, text that is not easy to read)Features, integrated systems, or third-party components outside our direct control (e.g., consent dialogs, login systems, embedded web views)Mobile applications that are not running the latest version.Planned improvements We continuously work to improve the accessibility of the platform’s core functionality. Ongoing or planned measures include:Improvements for screen readers in the web applicationSupport for system settings for dark/light mode (Android and iOS)Support for system settings for larger text sizes (Android)The next major review is planned for 1 November 2026 or in connection with major updates.Content that is not fully accessibleApplies to Web, iOS, and AndroidViews with images of entire newspaper pages Some views contain images of full newspaper pages. According to guidelines, text should be presented as real text, not images. These images are used only as a visual representation. All text that customers define as editorial content is available in a simplified reading mode when the publication is opened.Heading levels in replica mode Replica mode lacks a main H1 heading, which affects structure and semantics for screen readers. However, this is not deemed to impact understanding of the content in reading mode.Error message during login When an incorrect password is entered, the message “Incorrect login details” is shown. It is not fully descriptive according to accessibility requirements, but more detailed information is not provided for security reasons.Archive page and pagination More publications load automatically as the user scrolls, by design. Pagination would not improve usability due to archive sizes (sometimes 100+ years). Publications are displayed in chronological order, and filtering and date/title search are available.Podcasts Some customers include podcasts; these are presented without transcripts, meaning the content is only accessible via audio. Article audio may also be used, however this content usually matches the written text.Links on the start page Some components use links (for example to multiple issues, archives, or podcasts) which rely solely on colour to indicate link functionality.Applies to iOS and AndroidArchive page – search field The search field is a native component that lacks a visible “Search” button and therefore has no visible text label indicating a voice command. However, the search functionality works with common generic Voice control prompts such as “enter that”, and there is a Search button in the keyboard navigation.Applies to iOSExternal keyboards Some assistive functionality is switched off due to a large number of previously reported crashes on iPads connected to external keyboards. Switching off these functions has improved stability and lowered the amount of crashes significantly.Applies to AndroidArticle reading mode There is no button to enter article reading mode when viewing a PDF/replica. Keyboard-only navigation cannot access reading mode.Applies to WebScreen readers with Mozilla Firefox Article boxes cannot be opened to access the reading mode when using Firefox in combination with a screen reader. This works with other browsers.Screen readers in zoomed-in mode At browser zoom levels above 115%, the screen reader menu option becomes hidden.“Skip to content” There are currently no “Skip to content” links.Missing screen reader notification in search filtering When search results are filtered in narrow browser views, the filter panel covers the results. Applying filters updates the search results in the background, but no notification is provided to screen reader users. When the filter panel is closed and the updated results are shown, the change is still not announced.Report issues and contact detailsIf you discover additional accessibility issues or want to provide feedback, please contact us:Email: hello@prenly.comPhone: +46 31-388 47 40 If you are not satisfied with our response, you may contact the Swedish Post and Telecom Authority (PTS).

Search in Archived Articles
Created 24 Oct 2025
When you want to search for articles in the archive on a newspaper's Prenly page, there are two ways to go about it: - Search using single words, e.g., heatwave- Search using an exact phrase, e.g., "a warm day" The search results can be sorted by relevance, newest, or oldest. Your search terms will be highlighted in bold to help you see the context more easily. Phrase Search – How to Do It If you type several words like a warm day without quotes, the system will show results that include any of the words – for example, just a, warm, or day. That can generate a lot of hits, but not necessarily what you're looking for. To make your search more specific and only find articles that include the full phrase, place quotation marks around it: "a warm day" That way, you’ll only see results where that exact phrase appears – in that order, with no words in between. If you search for both a phrase and a single keyword, e.g. enter both "a warm day" Gothenburg, you will get hits for either "a warm day" or "Göteborg". What is relevance? You can choose to have the search results sorted by relevance. This means that a search result will be more relevant the more recent the date the article was published on. It will also be more relevant if the keyword is in the title and the more times the keyword is in the article.
