Systematic Review on Mobile Application Interface Design for the Visually Impaired Community

Resumen

The purpose of this research is to understand the importance of the design and development of inclusive mobile applications for people with visual disabilities, addressing significant issues of accessibility and usability to promote digital inclusion and improve the user experience in Peru. A systematic review was conducted using a methodology based on the PICO and PRISMA method to ensure accuracy and transparency. In addition, scientific articles in English or Spanish from 2018 to 2024 were searched in Scopus, eliminating duplicates and selecting a final sample. The results indicate that the design of mobile interfaces for users with visual disabilities significantly improves digital accessibility. This approach solves problems such as missing labels and inadequate contrast, allowing independent navigation and promoting inclusivity. The integration of screen readers and contrast adjustments not only optimizes the user experience, but also strengthens their autonomy and productivity, highlighting the importance of these advances in creating more inclusive and accessible digital environments. It is concluded that the design of accessible mobile interfaces for users with visual disabilities improves digital usability by addressing problems such as lack of labels and inadequate contrast, promoting inclusion and digital independence in an equitable manner.
