Remediations: Image Alts

The UserWay Widget can automatically add alternative text, also known as alt text or alts, to images using AI technology.
​

While AI-generated alt text helps improve accessibility, we recommend that a site admin reviews the suggested descriptions and updates them when needed. This helps ensure the alt text is accurate, clear, and helpful for users who rely on screen readers.
​

Alt text is a short written description added to an image through the image’s alt attribute.
​

This text can be read by screen readers for users who are blind or have low vision. It may also be displayed if an image cannot load due to a slow connection, broken image source, or other loading issue.
​

Example: <img src="example.png" alt="Product photo of a black leather backpack">

Good alt text should briefly describe the purpose or meaning of the image. Decorative images that do not add meaningful information can usually be marked as decorative.
​

The To do tab shows images where UserWay AI has generated alt text because the image did not originally have alt text in the site’s code.

These images already have AI-generated alt text applied by the Widget. However, they should still be reviewed by a site admin.

From this tab, you can:
