Accessibility statement
Ripsa is note-taking support for every student, and especially for those who want to focus on listening and learning while Ripsa captures the notes. That is why we built it with accessibility at its core, so that it works whatever your circumstances. A tool meant to make studying easier must of course also be easy to use. This page describes how far we have come, what still falls short, and how to get in touch if something does not work.
- Ripsa is partially compliant with EN 301 549 and WCAG 2.1 level AA.
- The app works with screen readers (VoiceOver, TalkBack), keyboard and text enlargement.
- A dyslexia-friendly typeface can be selected in settings.
- The shortcomings we know about are listed openly below. We do not hide them.
- Something not working for you? Email hello@ripsa.io. We normally reply within three working days.
Why this page exists
Ripsa is provided as note-taking support through universities. Our users may be students with disabilities, and the service is procured by public bodies covered by the Swedish Act (2018:1937) on the Accessibility of Digital Public Services. We therefore follow EN 301 549, which incorporates WCAG 2.1 level AA, across all our apps, regardless of how the European Accessibility Act's service categories are interpreted in our case.
What this statement covers
| Surface | Platform |

| Ripsa for Android | Phone and tablet |
| Ripsa for desktop | Windows, macOS, Linux |
| The admin portal | Web (for university staff) |
| The website | ripsa.io |
How accessible is the service?
Partially compliant with EN 301 549 and WCAG 2.1 level AA, because of the shortcomings described below.
Non-accessible content
Shortcomings we know about
- Ripsa does not automatically describe what is written on uploaded lecture images. Images you photograph or upload are exposed to screen readers with their filename and page number, but the app does not yet interpret what is written on the whiteboard, and does not read it out. (WCAG 1.1.1)
- Mathematical formulas may sound technical. Where the lecturer spoke the formula aloud, those words are read out. Where they did not, the underlying LaTeX source is read instead, which is accurate but not always easy to follow. (WCAG 1.1.1)
Disproportionate burden
We claim no exemptions.
Content outside the scope of the legislation
What you create in the app (recorded audio, uploaded images and your own notes) is your own content, and we cannot vouch for how accessible it is in itself. What we are responsible for is how Ripsa handles and presents the material, for example that images are exposed to screen readers (see the shortcoming above). The transcript is the text alternative to the recorded lecture.
What we have built in
- Screen reader support: VoiceOver and TalkBack. Every control is named, list rows are read as a single unit, and status changes are announced, for example when a recording fails.
- Dyslexia-friendly typeface: OpenDyslexic can be selected in settings.
- Text enlargement: the interface follows the system text size, and the desktop app can be zoomed.
- Keyboard: the web and desktop interfaces can be operated entirely without a mouse, with a visible focus indicator.
- Contrast: the entire colour palette meets AA level in both light and dark mode.
- Reduced motion: animations are disabled if you have chosen that in your system settings.
- Selectable text: transcripts and summaries can be selected and copied.
- Transcript language: the transcript is marked up with the language the recording was made in, so screen readers use the right speech synthesis even when the interface is set to another language. Applies to iOS, Android and the desktop app.
- Screen orientation: the mobile apps work in both portrait and landscape.
How we tested
We have reviewed Ripsa ourselves against EN 301 549: the apps and the admin portal in August 2026, the website on 16 and 17 August. We tested with screen readers, with the keyboard alone, with enlarged text and on small screens, and checked that every colour is clear enough to read.

About this statement
This statement was prepared on 4 August 2026 by Enjoy Solutions AB (company reg. no. 559213-5007), based on an internal review of the surfaces listed above. We update it whenever accessibility changes.
Last reviewed on 17 August 2026. We then fixed five faults on the website, and made it possible to change the width of the notes panel with the keyboard.
