Abstract

Most of the time, people without disabilities develop solutions for people with disabilities, and to understand the real needs of these users to create something valuable, the users have a fundamental role as active participants on the process of accessible application development. Some resources as researches, guidelines and usability tests that puts the user in the role to validate the flows, interactions, functionalities, navigation and even the testes are used to help the users to play his role. The accessibility guide created by SIDI establishes how to develop an accessible application, however, what really ensures that the software is accessible is the usability test performed by disabled users. This work will present the use case of Samsung’s application Relúmino that was created to improve the vision of partially impaired people. The result will demonstrate the importance of user participation in application development.
