Form Accessibility

FIX
4 of 4 controls have issues
Critical::
2 control(s) without accessible label
Form controls need a <label>, aria-label, or aria-labelledby for screen readers.

<textarea name="g-recaptcha-response" id="g-recaptcha-response-0wgbjffppyek">; <textarea name="h-captcha-response" id="h-captcha-response-0wgbjffppyek">

Why this matters

Form controls without labels — assistive tech announces 'edit text' with no context; users can't complete forms.

Source: WCAG 2.1 SC 3.3.2

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

<input type="search" name="q">; <input type="email" id="subscribe-email">

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 Keyboard & Autofill
Action
3/3 eligible field(s) missing autocomplete or inputmode
FIX
3/3 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" id="subscribe-email">
Warning::
2 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: search, email.

Page Structure — as a screen reader sees it
BANNER header NAV MAIN ASIDE CONTENTINFO footer

A page should have only one <main> landmark.

Why this matters

Multiple <main> elements violate the spec — there must be exactly one per page.

Learn more ▾

HTML5 spec: 'authors must not include more than one main element' visible to AT at the same time. Multiple <main>s confuse AT and break the 'jump to main content' shortcut. Refactor to a single <main> with nested <section>/<article>.

Source: HTML5 spec

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.

A page should have only one H1. Multiple H1s dilute the document outline.

Why this matters

Multiple H1s blur the page's primary topic — screen-reader users and Google both prefer one H1.

Learn more ▾

HTML5's outline algorithm technically allows multiple H1s within sectioning content, but no browser implements it. In practice: one H1 per page. Use H2-H6 for subsections.

Skipping heading levels breaks the document outline. Screen readers may interpret missing levels as structural errors.

Why this matters

Skipping heading levels breaks the document outline — screen-reader users lose track of section nesting.

Learn more ▾

Screen reader users navigate by jumping between headings (H1 → H2 → H3). Skipping (H1 → H3) breaks the sense of hierarchy. Use sequential levels even if you don't like the default styling — restyle with CSS instead. WCAG 1.3.1 (Info and Relationships) treats this as an A failure.

Heading Text Quality
1 heading-text-quality issue(s) detected
PASS
1 heading-text-quality issue(s) detected
Info::
12 heading(s) are all-uppercase (excluding short acronyms)
Headings rendered in all-uppercase are a styling choice that should be done via CSS (`text-transform: uppercase`), not by typing the text in caps. Capitalized text is read letter-by-letter by some screen readers (e.g., "H-E-L-L-O W-O-R-L-D" instead of "hello world"). It's also a soft signal of CMS-migration artifacts where the original lowercase intent was lost.

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.

Names and labels

When a button doesn't have an accessible name, screen readers announce it as "button", making it unusable for users who rely on screen readers. Learn how to make buttons more accessible.

Why this matters

Performance issues directly impact user engagement and conversion rates.

Failing Elements
div.container > div.flex > div.lg:hidden > button.p-2 div.container > div.flex > div.lg:hidden > button.p-2
div.flex > div.flex > nav.flex > button.relative div.flex > div.flex > nav.flex > button.relative

Link text (and alternate text for images, when used as links) that is discernible, unique, and focusable improves the navigation experience for screen reader users. Learn how to make links accessible.

Why this matters

Performance issues directly impact user engagement and conversion rates.

Failing Elements
div.container > div.flex > div.flex > a.flex div.container > div.flex > div.flex > a.flex
div.container > div.flex > div.flex > a.flex div.container > div.flex > div.flex > a.flex

These are opportunities to improve the semantics of the controls in your application. This may enhance the experience for users of assistive technology, like a screen reader.

Navigation

Properly ordered headings that do not skip levels convey the semantic structure of the page, making it easier to navigate and understand when using assistive technologies. Learn more about heading order.
