a11yTools - Web Accessibility6.7 - App Store

a11yTools is a collection of HTML Web Accessibility Testing Tools in one location on your iPhone and iPad for quick and easy Accessibility testing. Run your favorite Accessibility testing tool and easily take a screenshot on your phone showing the a11y error to developers and designers.

a11yTools is a one-at-a-time testing tool where you pick the HTML Accessibility element or feature you’re testing once-per-page rather than running all tests together. Test and results can be stacked on top each other e.g. to show both Headings and Image Alt Text Properties.

How To Use a11yTools: Visit the webpage you want to test then tap the + Add button and add the a11yTool you want.

Reset the Page hitting Refresh
Or
Shake Your iPhone to Reset Page and remove the a11yTools output.

Safari Share Action Extensions! Activate a11yTools directly in Safari from the share button.

This app will be updated on a continuous basis with new testing tools and features added over time.
