ADA Website Compliance?

[DinaLRosenberg]

I've seen some instagram reels that businesses are getting sued for not being ADA compliant. Does anyone know if there is a third-party plug in for this? I'm getting sorta spooked.

Same..I looked up the DOJ stats and there were something like 4500 lawsuits in 2023 I also wondered if this was a marketing ploy for the widget makers and tools to help because most have fees but I did sign up for the trial subscription with @MayaP 's suggestion https://app.squareup.com/us/en/app-marketplace/app/accessibility-widget and am working on figuring it out. It immediately helps the users of the site and I know somewhere I saw some other threads with tips as well. I have some questions I'll ask after a little more poking around as well.

I think the other person with a lot of knowledge on the other thread was @Donnie-M

Hmmmm it could be a sales ploy.. I'm so confused.

There's a free trial and then $49 a month to use the widget it offers users a lot of options. Could be helpful for shoppers. Donnie raised a lot of good points in the other thread about the ways in which Square sites are compliant already. We decided to go ahead and install the widget because like you had seen others talking about it online.

Thanks for the recommendation @MudFire_Dex. I think it will be good to tryout and see what's up. However, I'd love to see Square integrate something like this themselves to help small businesses.
