A card that is hard to read loses contacts quietly. People view cards outdoors in bright sun, on small screens, in a hurry, and some have low vision or read in a second language. These practical steps make a digital business card easier to read and use. They are good design habits using MyInfo's real settings, not a formal accessibility certification.
Start with strong contrast
Dark text on a light background, or the reverse, is easiest to read. The theme studio warns you and will not save a theme whose text and background colours are too similar. If you use a built-in template, choose one with strong contrast; see choose a template.
Pick a readable font and size
When you create a theme you choose a heading font, a body font and the text size. Keep body text comfortably large, and use fancy fonts only for short headings. See create a custom theme for your brand.
Write clear button labels
A button called "Click here" tells a screen reader user nothing. Use labels that say what happens, such as "Book an appointment" or "Download the menu". Add them under Other links; see add social and custom links.
Keep text short
Keep your About text to a few lines and move longer detail into a text section of up to 600 characters. Short sentences help visitors who read in their second language. A card in both Arabic and English is covered in Arabic and English on one card.
Make a clear photo
Use a well-lit face photo, not a busy background. Visitors recognise you more easily, and photos are optimised automatically when uploaded. See the best photo and banner.
Test on a real phone
Open your card on a phone outdoors or at low brightness. Tap each link with one hand. If anything is hard to see or tap, fix it from the editor. Changes go live as soon as you save.
