Documentation of accessibility observations for Deutsche Telekom – Mobilfunk & OneShop

1.1.1 Non-text Content (A) Icons in data table have no text alternative

Priority: Critical Low Page: For Friends Observation Permalink

Observation Details

The icons (checkmark, cross) in data table "Die neuen PlusKarten der Telekom in der Übersicht" have no text alternative and table cells are therefore announced "blank".

Users of assistive technology cannot access the intended information at all.

Remediation Notes

Ensure, all informative images have purpose equivalent text alternatives present and accessible to all users.

Side note about table headers: Table headers might be announced for each table cell for users of assistive technology; navigating row to row, the row header is announced, then the content of the cell. Navigating column to column, the same happens with column headers; as of now, the column headers are very content-rich and as such the whole header is announced for each cell; Ideally, only the most important content part that is distinguishing the columns/rows is part of the header; ("Basis"), "Plus", "Kids & Teens", "Data" would be a lot more user friendly; the repeating content ("MagentaMobil PlusKarte") could be omitted when described before the table; e.g. "Vergleichen sie die verschiedenen MagentaMobil PlusKarten und ihre Funktionen"
