Requirements

·       Gestures must be intuitive and consistent. Use the gestures the users are used to i.e. scrolling in a linear fashion is acceptable.

·       Do not insert functions that can only be managed via gestures (such as a swiping motion on a carousel). Always add a button/link so that users who have limited dexterity can tap a button to navigate.

·       Functionality is available to users who are unable to perform gestures (such as pinch-to-zoom or a swipe), by providing controls that can be operated with a single tap/click.

Users must be able to pause carousel movement because it can be too fast or distracting, making text hard to read.
