Discussion of SC 1.4.10 Reflow, 1.4.12 Text Spacing on native mobile apps

[lgnacio]

SC 1.4.10 reflow and SC 1.4.12 Text Spacing would be very difficult to measure on native mobile apps like iOS and Android that are not web-based. Does this SC apply to native mobile apps? (#507 discussed, I would like to know the latest.)

SC 1.4.12 only applies to markup languages and only to the supported aspects - so it would not apply to native apps that don't use markup languages.

There is another Github open issue related to how SC 1.4.10 applies to mobile.

I think w3c/wcag2ict#4 covers a lot of this ground, and the upshot is that the "Web Content" accessibility guidelines are not aimed at native mobile apps, but there is work starting on updating WCAG2ICT which could cover that aspect.

@lgnacio is there something specific not covered by the other issues? If not, I'll close this.
