Best Practice 3.3 – Provide consistent identification (Baseline level)


For all items that have the same functionality, ensure they use the same label.

 

Before Rectification
A sample mobile application page containing two buttons for the same function but having different label descriptions.
In this example, two buttons each having a different label will cause confusion to users, especially for those using screen readers, who may have doubt whether these two buttons have the similar behaviour.
After Rectification
A sample mobile application page containing two buttons for the same function with same label descriptions.
The "Join Now" buttons are made consistent and it is clear that both would have the same behaviour.
