September was a really fruitful month for us by way of enhancing Stripo and its ecosystem within the type of varied supporting instruments. As well as, this month, we began working in the direction of an necessary facet of electronic mail advertising — accessibility.
So, let’s go into a little bit extra element about all of the achievements.
Interactive module generator has three extra video games now
Once we launched our interactive module generator in July, we mentioned that we had massive plans to replace it and it’s best to count on new video games. As we promised, in September, we launched three new video games that may be generated by the handy interface of our generator.
- Scratch sport. On this sport, you’ll be able to create a secret message or give the recipient a promo code, which they have to reveal by the scratching shade coating like in lottery tickets.
- Image quiz sport. Give your subscribers a riddle, and the reply might be within the assembled puzzle.
- Wheel of fortune. Give away promo codes and prizes or create video games utilizing the wheel of fortune. Let recipients take a look at their luck by spinning the wheel and seeing what it reveals.
For instance, that is what the completed image quiz sport seems to be like.
You’ll be able to generate all these video games in an intuitive interface, and also you don’t want coding information to create and implement them in your electronic mail. We won’t wait to see what emails you’ll be able to construct utilizing these ready-made sport mechanics.
Two-factor authentication is now dwell in Stripo
First, let us take a look at what this two-factor authentication is and why it’s wanted. Two-factor authentication (or 2FA) is a further safety measure used to confirm the id of people making an attempt to entry an internet account. After getting into their username and password, customers are requested for additional data earlier than being granted entry.
Now, in Stripo you’ve the choice to activate 2FA or Multi-Issue Authentication (MFA) to reinforce the safety of your account. This helps defend your account from varied safety dangers, together with phishing, brute-force assaults, credential abuse, and related threats based mostly on consumer passwords and accounts.
Now you can select to authenticate by devoted two-factor authentication apps resembling Google Authenticator, Authy, or Duo. As well as, double authentication will be carried out by a one-time code, which we are going to ship to you by electronic mail.
First steps in enhancing electronic mail accessibility inside Stripo
This yr, the Electronic mail Markup Consortium launched an Accessibility Report, which revealed some horrible information: 99.97% of HTML emails examined comprise accessibility points categorized as “Critical” or “Crucial.” Consequently, we have now the truth that solely 0.03% of emails are totally accessible.
What does this imply? Virtually all emails that find yourself in inboxes are poorly or utterly unreadable for display screen readers. Folks with visible impairments merely can’t discover out what’s in these emails since display screen readers can’t learn the e-mail out loud for them.
For the time being, Stripo is approaching 1 million energetic customers, and it is a big variety of emails created by our editor. We wish to enhance these horrible statistics on our personal in order that any display screen reader can learn all emails created in Stripo with out issues.
Proper now, our programmers are transforming and enhancing the emails code rolled out of the editor in order that there aren’t any errors on the code degree that might intervene with display screen readers.
As well as, the product group is engaged on “Accessibility precheck” performance. The primary concept is that Stripo will test emails for compliance with accessibility requirements (electronic mail code, shade distinction, and so forth.). We’ll point out which electronic mail parts scale back accessibility and suggest how finest to repair them utilizing our electronic mail preview function.
The code replace might be launched within the coming weeks, whereas the “Accessibility precheck” might be launched later.
