TikTok Adds New Accessibility Overview To Provide Additional Support for Users

  • TikTok adds photosensitivity warnings to its videos, and allows viewers to opt out of viewing them. It’s also educational; warning labels are shown to creators on the specific effects that may trigger photosensitive epilepsy.
  • TikTok also offers auto captions and text-to-speech tools, and the ability to switch between animated and static thumbnails.
  • These features are described on TikTok’s Accessibility Overview page, which serve as a handy reference point.
  • Anecdotally, TikTok is often seen as very accessible compared to other social media platforms, so it’s always worth noting the improvements they’re making in this area.
