Alt-Text Scrubber: Enhancing Screen Reader Experience
Alt-Text Scrubber is a free Chrome add-on developed by Nicholas Romeo in the Browsers category, specifically under Add-ons & Tools. This program aims to improve the screen reader experience by cleaning up and removing unnecessary alt-text.
When using screen reader software, irrelevant alt-text can make it difficult to understand the content of a webpage. For example, instead of providing meaningful descriptions, some images may have alt-text like "26601200156_fb38342ff7_k.png," which disrupts the flow of information. Alt-Text Scrubber addresses this issue by removing commonly misused alt-text for the current tab, resulting in a more streamlined and accessible experience for screen reader users.
By eliminating clutter and providing accurate alt-text, Alt-Text Scrubber ensures that screen reader users can better comprehend the content on webpages. This extension is a valuable tool for enhancing accessibility and improving the usability of websites for individuals with visual impairments.
