Quick accessibility checks

Spot accessibility issues as you browse: highlight headings, image text alternatives, and lists with labels and counts.

Quick accessibility checks helps you spot common accessibility issues while you browse or build a webpage, without leaving the page or digging through its markup. ━━ WHAT YOU CAN CHECK ━━ ▸ Headings: see each heading’s level and text ▸ Images: find text alternatives, decorative images, and images with no alternative ▸ Lists: inspect ordered and unordered list structure ━━ HOW IT HELPS ━━ ✔ Turn on a check to highlight elements directly on the page, with clear labels and counts ✔ Labels reflect Chrome’s computed accessibility tree, so they show what assistive technologies receive, including for custom elements ✔ Highlights follow elements as you scroll, including content in open shadow roots, supported frames, and dialogs ✔ Use hover-only labels to keep the view uncluttered ━━ PRIVACY ━━ 🔒 Checks run locally in Chrome 🔒 Page content is not sent to a server and browsing history is not collected 🔒 Webpages are not permanently modified ━━ GOOD TO KNOW ━━ ⓘ While a check is active, Chrome may show its “debugging this browser” indicator, which the extension uses to read the accessibility tree ⓘ Requires Chrome 125 or later
