Observation Details

Images that are not purely decorative, must have a purpose equivalent text alternative set, to be accessible if the image cannot be visually perceived. A prime example is a blind screen reader user. But also if an image cannot be loaded due to network issues, the text alternative ensures perception of the conveyed information.

Images with non-equivalent text alternative:

  • Product images (× 10) all use alt="Apple iPad Air 11" (2025) M3"

  • "Netzteil" images in "Produktinformationen" have empty alt attribute

Remediation Notes

Ensure purpose equivalent text alternatives are present for every non-decorative image. Depending on the purpose, the text alternative may be describing the contents of an image or the functionality it serves (e.g. as a link to a specific page).
