Official methodology to test criterion 3.9

Test 1 (3.9)

iOS and Android
  1. Identify pre-recorded video-only and synchronised time-based media on the screen that require audio description.
  2. Check for:
    • the presence of a synchronised audio description;
    • or the presence of an alternative version with a synchronised audio description adjacent to or accessible via an adjacent component (a button or a link).
  3. If this is the case, the criterion is validated.
