Mobile Keyboard & Autofill
Action
2/2 eligible field(s) missing autocomplete or inputmode
FIX
2/2 eligible field(s) missing autocomplete or inputmode
Warning::
1 field(s) missing recommended autocomplete attribute
WCAG 1.3.5 (Level AA): inputs whose purpose maps to a Common Input Purpose value should declare it via `autocomplete=`. Required for password managers, browser autofill, and assistive tech that customizes inputs (e.g., simplified keyboards). Mobile autofill in particular cuts form-completion time by 30-50% when these are present. Affected purposes: email.
Got: <input type="email" name="email">
Warning::
1 field(s) would benefit from inputmode attribute
Mobile browsers pick the on-screen keyboard layout from `inputmode=` when present (numeric pad, tel dialpad, email keyboard). Without it, users see the default text keyboard and must mode-switch -- 2-3 extra taps per phone-number or numeric-ID field. Type-based defaults exist (`type=tel` shows the tel keyboard on most browsers) but `inputmode` is the explicit, cross-browser way to control this. Affected types: email.
Got: <input type="email" name="email">

Warning::
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
BANNER (missing!) NAV MAIN CONTENTINFO footer

Multiple navigations need aria-label to distinguish them for screen readers.

Why this matters

Some <nav> elements lack aria-label — screen-reader users hear 'navigation' multiple times with no way to distinguish them.

Learn more

When a page has multiple <nav> regions (primary, footer, breadcrumb), each needs aria-label or aria-labelledby. AT users navigate by landmark; identical 'navigation' announcements force them to enter each one to discover purpose.

Source: WAI-ARIA Authoring Practices

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.

Placeholder text disappears on focus and is not a reliable label.

<input type="text" name="full_name">; <input type="email" name="email">; <textarea name="message">

Why this matters

Placeholder-only labels disappear when the user starts typing — they must remember what the field was for.

Learn more

Placeholders are NOT labels. They vanish on input, fail color contrast checks (most are gray), and don't satisfy WCAG SC 3.3.2. Always use a real <label> alongside (or aria-labelledby).

Mobile-Readable Font Sizes
98% of visible text renders at >= 12 CSS px (1 below threshold)
REVIEW
98% of visible text renders at >= 12 CSS px (1 below threshold)
Info::
1 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: <div> 9.3px ("smy3 LLC , All Rights Reserved").

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.

Contrast

Low-contrast text is difficult or impossible for many users to read. Learn how to provide sufficient color contrast.

Why this matters

Performance issues directly impact user engagement and conversion rates.
