  • Choosing your jurisdiction

    Choose the country where you work in More › Preferences › Rights framework. Accommodated supports the United Kingdom, United States, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and Ireland.

  • Deciding whether to disclose

    Disclosure means telling an employer enough about a health condition, disability, or work-related limitation for them to understand what support may be needed. Accommodated does no

  • Demo mode

    Demo Mode lets you explore Accommodated with sample conditions, limitations, requests, and plans before entering real information.

  • Finding accommodations

    The Accommodation Finder suggests practical changes you can consider, organised by category and informed by the conditions you choose. Suggestions are starting points, not a findin

  • Limitation Translator

    The Limitation Translator turns an everyday description of a work barrier into a clearer, work-focused draft. For example, difficulty concentrating late in the day can become a req

  • Rights reference

    Rights Reference is a plain-language starting point for the workplace laws, schemes, and official guidance connected to your selected country.

  • Access to Work helper

  • Disclosure Risk Assessment

    The Disclosure Risk Assessment is a structured reflection on whether, when, and how much to tell an employer. It is a thinking tool, not a score or recommendation.

  • Writing a request letter

    The request-letter wizard builds an editable workplace accommodation request in small steps. Nothing is sent automatically.

  • Conversation timeline

    The conversation timeline is a dated record of a workplace request: who you contacted, what happened, what was agreed, and what remains unresolved.

  • Evidence tools

    Accommodated+ includes tools that organise your own records and highlight patterns. They help you prepare; they do not produce legal findings or medical evidence.

  • Return-to-work planner

    The Return-to-Work Planner helps you draft a phased return after absence. It is a proposal to discuss, not medical clearance or an instruction to increase hours.

  • Backup & restore

    A backup is a readable .accommodatedbackup archive containing app records and available attachments. Backups are separate from CloudKit sync and are not encrypted by Accommodated.

  • iCloud sync

    iCloud Sync is optional and off by default. Without it, Accommodated uses the local store on this device. Backups and exports remain separate choices.

  • Exporting & deleting data

    More › Data contains CSV export and Delete All Data. These controls affect different copies of your information, so review the scope before acting.

  • Notifications & reminders

    Accommodated uses local iOS notifications for optional request follow-ups and saved formal-deadline prompts. Cocoacorn does not operate a push-notification server.

  • App Lock

    App Lock adds a device-authentication screen when you return to Accommodated after leaving it. Enable it in More › Preferences › Privacy.

  • Using Tended, Metered, and Tolerated

    Accommodated can use small, compatible summaries published by Tended, Metered, or Tolerated. Each app still works independently, and Cocoacorn does not receive the exchanged record

  • Where is my data?

    Accommodated is local-first and has no Cocoacorn account, analytics service, advertising SDK, or developer-operated server for your workplace records.

  • What’s included in Accommodated+?

    Accommodated's core discovery, rights, initial-request, Access to Work, and safety controls remain useful without a purchase. Accommodated+ unlocks additional preparation and docum

  • Sources & references
