Mobile-Readable Font Sizes

Action

42% of visible text renders at >= 12 CSS px (15 below threshold)

FIX

42% of visible text renders at >= 12 CSS px (15 below threshold)

15 text node(s) render below 12 CSS pixels on mobile

Mobile browsers default the root font-size to 16 px; text below ~ 12 px (75% of root) is hard to read without zooming. WCAG 1.4.4 (Resize Text) requires the page to support 200% zoom without loss of functionality -- which most layouts handle, but small base text still costs readability and conversion. Audit which selectors set sizes below 12 px (often footers, fine print, table cells) and bump them to 14-16 px or use rem units that scale with user preferences. Examples: <span> 11.2px ("Email or username"); <span> 11.0px ("About"); <span> 11.0px ("Get App"); <span> 11.0px ("Grok"); <span> 11.0px ("Help").

404 Error Page

FIX

Soft 404 detected

Soft 404: server returns HTTP 200 for non-existent pages

The server returns HTTP 200 for a path that does not exist. Search engines will index these pages, diluting your real content. Configure your server to return a proper 404 status code for missing pages.

Got: Status: 200 for /beavercheck-404-test-6jprtn

404 Page Quality ✗ Soft 404 (HTTP 200)

Status Code: HTTP 200

The server returned HTTP 200 for a non-existent path. Search engines will index this page as real content. Configure your server to return HTTP 404 for missing pages.

Print Stylesheet

Action

No print styles

FIX

No print styles

No print-specific styles detected

When users print this page, they get the screen layout including navigation and non-essential elements. Add @media print rules to hide navigation and optimize layout for paper.

Skip navigation link is missing (WCAG 2.4.1)

Add a skip link as the first focusable element so keyboard users can bypass repeated navigation.

Page Structure — as a screen reader sees it

Add a skip link as the first focusable element so keyboard users can bypass repeated navigation.

Why this matters

Without a skip-nav link, keyboard users tab through every nav item before reaching content — every page, every visit.

Learn more ▾

WCAG 2.4.1 (Bypass Blocks) requires a mechanism to skip past repeated content. The standard implementation is a 'Skip to main content' link that's the first focusable element, visually hidden until focused. Three lines of HTML + four of CSS.

Why this matters

Links with target="_blank" without rel="noopener" leak the originating page's window context — security and UX issue.

Learn more ▾

Without rel="noopener", the new tab can navigate the original tab via window.opener (tab-nabbing attack). Modern browsers default to noopener for target=_blank but only since recent versions. Always set rel="noopener noreferrer" explicitly.

Browser-chrome `theme-color` meta tag present

The page sets `<meta name="theme-color" content="...">`, which Android Chrome uses to tint the status bar and iOS Safari uses for the toolbar background. Brand polish that costs nothing and Just Works.

Viewport `viewport-fit=cover` -- supports notched / dynamic-island devices

The viewport meta declares `viewport-fit=cover`, which lets the page draw into the safe-area edges (notch, dynamic island, home indicator) on iPhone X+ devices. Pair with `env(safe-area-inset-*)` CSS to keep critical UI inside the inset rectangle while letting backgrounds extend edge-to-edge.

Lighthouse Accessibility Audits

Score 93/100 — 1 failing, 18 passed

PASS

Accessibility

These checks highlight opportunities to improve the accessibility of your web app. Automatic detection can only detect a subset of issues and does not guarantee the accessibility of your web app, so manual testing is also encouraged.

Best practices

Disabling zooming is problematic for users with low vision who rely on screen magnification to properly see the contents of a web page. Learn more about the viewport meta tag.
