Level AOperable

What it means

Moving, blinking or auto-updating content must be pausable or stoppable.

How to meet it

Provide controls to pause carousels, animations and auto-updating regions.

How AccessScan checks this

This criterion needs a rendered page or human judgement (for example colour contrast, focus visibility, or media review), so it’s part of manual testing and our upcoming deep scan rather than the free static scan.
