But you can — or should be able to — independently toggle all of those features. For example, the app should work in high-contrast mode with disabled color coding, it should work with touch gestures disabled, etc.

A good common framework helps here. Then, it's up to each user to set their settings properly.

Riddle me this - why would you want to disable something that increases usability of an application? (Yes, this is a loaded question - I never said these features are bad, just that usability and accessibility are sometimes at odds with each other.)

  • Sometimes users may prefer to reduce the degree of accessibility of an application in favor of aesthetics.
