Accessibility
Blink is meant to work for the whole room — including the people in it who use a screen reader, who navigate by keyboard, who need larger text, or who can't tolerate motion. This page says where we are, honestly, and how to reach a person if something blocks you.
We aim to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA — the standard the U.S. Department of Justice points to under the Americans with Disabilities Act — across our website and web app at joinblink.me.
We are not claiming we fully meet it. No independent auditor has reviewed Blink, and no screen-reader user has tested it under controlled conditions. Saying otherwise would be easy and untrue. What follows is what we have actually checked, and what we know is still missing.
Everything at joinblink.me: the site, the host dashboard, the guest join flow, the camera, and the album where the night arrives.
There is no Blink mobile app yet.The camera runs in your phone’s browser — there is nothing to download. If we release a native app, this page will be updated before it ships, and it will be built to the platform accessibility standards (VoiceOver, TalkBack, Dynamic Type, reduced motion).
Tap targets on guest screens are at least 44 × 44 pixels. Text and controls were measured against the backgrounds they actually sit on rather than assumed — several hints and labels that were too faint to read have been corrected.
If your device asks for reduced motion, the landing page honours it: nothing pins, nothing scrubs, and the page reads straight down as ordinary sections. Interactive elements show a visible focus ring for keyboard navigation, headings and landmarks are marked up semantically, and forms surface errors in text rather than disabling a button with no explanation.
Blink needs no app, no account and no password — which removes a category of barrier before anything else has to work.
Taking the photo is visual.Blink’s core action is framing a picture, and there is no meaningful screen-reader equivalent for composing a shot. We won’t pretend to solve that with a label.
But receiving the night does not depend on it.Every guest gets the whole roll by link — and by email if they gave one — without taking a single photo. You can view it, download it, and ask for any photo of you to be removed. If someone at the party can’t use a camera, they still get everything the camera produced.
We also know some secondary labels are set in small uppercase type that is harder to read than it should be; that is under review. Our background video carries no captions because it has no audio — a text description is provided in its place.
This is the part of the page that actually matters. If any part of Blink is unusable for you, email support@joinblink.me with “accessibility” in the subject. Tell us the page, what you were trying to do, and what got in the way — including the assistive technology you use, if you’re comfortable sharing it.
We reply within 5 business days, and we will tell you plainly whether we can fix it, when, or if we can’t. If the fastest route is a person doing it for you — pulling your photos, removing one, closing an account — we’ll just do that.
To have a photo of you taken down you don’t need this page or an account: report a photo works for anyone, including people who were never at the event.
