Accessibility and privacy
A VoiceOver-friendly dog puzzle, with local data.
Paw Atlas is designed so a puzzle board is understandable without speed, sound, or color recognition. The shipped app includes VoiceOver-friendly controls, Larger Text, Reduced Motion, sufficient contrast, and state cues that do not rely on color alone. Privacy follows the same local-first approach: no account, advertising, analytics, tracking, third-party crash reporting, or app-owned backend. Selected dog photos are processed on-device, metadata is removed on import, and progress stays on the device.

Portrait tiles and story moments expose selection and movement actions with descriptive labels and hints.
Larger Text and Reduced Motion
The app follows system text sizing and reduced-motion preferences for a less visually demanding experience.
Clear state cues
Puzzle states use labels, structure, and interaction feedback instead of making color the only signal.
Local and ad-free
