13 new accessibility fixes that make your site easier to use

We've added a dozen new accessibility improvements that help people using screen readers, keyboard navigation, and assistive technologies have a smoother and more inclusive experience.

This update brings a collection of accessibility enhancements designed to make your site friendlier and more navigable for everyone, especially users relying on assistive tools.

Improved screen reader support and keyboard navigation
We've added descriptive titles to iframes and ensured list structures are properly recognized by Safari's VoiceOver. SVG images now include clearer ARIA labels, and tooltips have been upgraded to be announced properly by screen readers. Error messages in forms are easier to detect thanks to ARIA invalid states, while live regions for dynamic content are set up to keep users informed without distraction.

Better interaction and usability features
Modals now trap keyboard focus within them and can be dismissed using the Escape key, preventing confusion for keyboard users. We've also ensured that focus isn't hidden behind sticky elements, preserving context while navigating. Accordions are now accurately labeled with expanded states so screen reader users always know which sections are open.

Enhanced compatibility and visual support
We've lifted restrictions on orientation locks and paste-blocking fields to avoid unnecessary barriers. Additionally, Windows High Contrast Mode is fully supported, helping users with vision impairments see content more clearly. These improvements combine to create a more inclusive experience that respects diverse needs and preferences.
