Zomato on iOS: Accessibility Issues In fact, they have only made the home page accessible. The "Go to Cart" button floats on the screen, making it difficult for screen reader users to locate it quickly. After confirming an order, users face challenges verifying their contact and address details. Additionally, there is no way to skip the ads on the order page. It seems that to avoid the Supreme Court’s fine, they made only minimal efforts by making just the home page accessible.
