Hello!
I'm considering getting Duolingo to learn some Spanish. Taking a look at the app directory entry I see it hasn't been updated in a while. So I'm wondering, is Duolingo accessible? What should I know about it?
Thank you and have a great day!

Duolingo is mostly accessible. I do a lesson every day and it works for me. There are a few occasions. Where adverts are you enter you cannot get out of unless you go to sighted mode. It does take longer to do each lesson them for sighted folk, but that is the same for anything with a screen reader. You need to have VoiceOver set up so you’ve got easy reach of word at a time and character at a time so you can check sentence structure and spellings
