Why Update to Ally by Elementor?
The Ally plugin introduces significant upgrades to our previous accessibility widget, enhancing functionality and usability with new, powerful features.
Device-specific visibility: Gain full control over where the widget appears, with the ability to toggle it on or off for desktop, mobile, or both. Tailor the experience to meet the needs of your audience.
Improved Widget placement: Position the widget in any corner of the screen or choose a custom location to seamlessly integrate it into your website design.
Enhanced UX and customization: Enjoy intuitive controls to adjust widget features like icon size, color, and functionality. Refine the widget to perfectly match your site’s branding with ease.
Live preview: See exactly how the widget will look and behave on your site as you make adjustments, ensuring a smooth design process and seamless integration.
Accessibility Statement generator: Automatically generate a detailed accessibility statement aligned with global standards like WCAG and ADA. Publish it directly as a WordPress page to demonstrate your commitment to inclusivity.
Reading Panel: Enjoy a simplified, distraction-free reading mode that emphasizes content clarity and minimizes on-screen clutter.
Hide Images: Temporarily remove images to focus solely on text—ideal for users who prefer a more text-centric browsing experience or who may find images distracting.
Pause Animations: Stop moving elements on the page to lessen sensory distractions. This feature is perfect for users who are sensitive to motion or require a more static environment.
Highlight Links: Easily identify clickable links as they are emphasized for improved navigation, ensuring that important interactions on your site are both visible and accessible.
With these updates, the Ally plugin empowers web creators to create more accessible and user-friendly websites with unmatched control and convenience.
