If you're using Doodle, keep checking in to make sure it's working for everyone. I've been using it for a few years now, but with gaps of several months when I couldn't use it at all because buttons or checkboxes wouldn't respond to my JAWS screen reader.
I emailed back and forth with their team a few times, and I hope this helped them see accessibility as a priority.
