| 2025-02-28 |  | | en | Nice and comprehensive plugin! An option to zoom in on mobile (just the screen) would be a nice addition, as it would make it easier to test WCAG requirements related to zoom and readability. |
| 2025-02-25 |  | | en | Great until last update. Now the accessibility-check-function always shows that the website is 100% accessible even if it is not. |
| 2025-02-07 |  | | en | I had to disable the extension because I wasn't able to use google auth to log into any of my site servers. |
| 2025-02-07 |  | | en | Had to uninstall, the new plugin forces the button on all tabs. Yes, you can disable it by clicking the extension in the bar, but whenever you reload or navigate the page; it re-appears. There is no option to change the default setting. Furthermore, it breaks sites like youtube where it starts playing a second copy of the video in the background. It also messes around with added scroll bars in full screen mode. This made web browsing very unpleasant. |
| 2025-02-06 |  | | en | I love the plugin but with the recent update a button is forever visible on the side of the screen. Not really good. I can't even disable it. |
| 2025-02-03 |  | | en | New update added a Silktide Button that cant be disabled on all websites. Please remove or add the option to hide the button |
| 2024-12-21 |  | | en | Very, VERY good at getting a quick, total, and comprehensive understanding of your time. Bravo!! |
| 2024-08-07 |  | | en | The test does not correctly take into account the text shadow, which significantly improves the contrast. I asked an acquaintance from my vocational training who has very poor eyesight and the answer was that the text is very easy to read with the text shadow. |
| 2024-06-26 |  | | en | Love this tool but it is down right now for me, maybe a update is happening. |
| 2024-06-14 |  | | en | Nice tool, modern and intuitive. I like the built-in contrast checker. |
