Accessibility scanner

This feature helps you identify accessibility issues on your storefront and understand how to improve your store compliance

Step 1: Access Accessibility Scanner

  • Open your admin Dashboard

  • Navigate to the Accessibility Scanner screen


Step 2: Run a Scan

  • Click Scan to begin scanning your storefront. You can define Scan scope to control which parts of your storefront will be scanned

    • All pages: Scan the entire storefront

    • Group of pages: Scan selected page groups:

      • Product pages (/products)

      • Collection pages (/collections)

      • Pages (/pages)

      • Other (/search, /policies, /cart)

    • Specific page: Enter a specific page URL to scan

  • The scanner automatically checks your store against WCAG 2.2 accessibility criteria

  • Wait for the scan to complete (scan time may vary depending on store size)


Step 3: Review Scan Results

Once finished, a detailed report will be generated.

The scan report summary includes:

  • List of detected accessibility issues

  • Accessibility score

  • Lawsuit risk against WCAG 2.2 AA

For each detected issue, you can:

  • Review issue details by click button show details:

    • Issue severity levels (e.g. critical, moderate, minor)

    • Affected elements/pages

    • Description of the issue

    • Suggested remediation guidance from "Action needed"

  • Manually mark issue as solved

  • Keep unresolved issues visible for transparency purposes (used in Accessibility Statement)

You can use this report to prioritize fixes and coordinate with your development or theme team.

By using the Accessibility Scanner and Update Statement together, you’re actively improving accessibility while keeping your customers informed.
