Accessibility report for oldnavy.com

Accessibility grade: C
Based on an automated WCAG 2.1 Level AA scan on June 14, 2026.

Web accessibility is a legal requirement, not an optional extra. An automated scan of oldnavy.com found 3 types of barrier, measured against WCAG 2.1 Level AA — the standard U.S. courts apply under the ADA.

On this page, the most frequent barrier is "Some text on this page is too light to read against its background" — found on 1 element. In total the scan flagged 3 issues across 3 categories of WCAG 2.1 Level AA.

WCAG 2.1 Level AA is the standard U.S. courts apply under the ADA, and the law across the EU under the European Accessibility Act. These barriers block screen-reader, keyboard-only, and low-vision users — and every one of them is fixable. Here's how.

What we found, and how to fix it

Some text on this page is too light to read against its background.

WCAG 1.4.3 (Level AA) EN 301 549 Affects low-vision and colorblind users

Why it matters: People with low vision, older eyes, or anyone reading on a sunny phone screen can't make out faint text. Color blindness affects about 1 in 12 men and 1 in 200 women. Insufficient contrast is the #1 most-common cause of accessibility lawsuits — every Domino's-style ADA suit cites it.

How to fix it: If you use a website builder (Squarespace, Wix, Shopify, WordPress with a theme), open your site styles or theme color settings and pick darker text colors or lighter backgrounds. Aim for very dark text on white, or very light text on dark. Free check at webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker. If you have a developer, ask them to ensure all text meets WCAG AA contrast (4.5:1 for normal text, 3:1 for large text).

Some buttons or links are too small to tap reliably on touch screens.

WCAG 2.5.8 (Level AA) Affects low-vision and colorblind users

Why it matters: WCAG 2.2 requires touch targets to be at least 24×24 pixels. Small targets are a problem for users with hand tremors, large fingers, or motor disabilities. They're also frustrating for everyone.

How to fix it: In your editor, increase padding around small icon buttons. If your developer is involved, ask them to ensure all interactive elements have minimum 24×24 CSS pixels of clickable area.

This page is missing a main heading (H1).

page-has-heading-one · moderate · 1 instance

Affects screen-reader users

Why it matters: Screen-reader users use the H1 to confirm they landed on the right page. The H1 is also a strong SEO signal — Google uses it to understand what the page is about.

How to fix it: Add a clear, descriptive H1 to the top of the page. In website builders, this is usually the 'Title' or 'Page heading' setting. Each page should have exactly one H1.
