Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureWeb accessibility is now a legal expectation for online stores selling in the EU. a11y-guard helps you understand where your storefront stands, act on the issues that matter, and keep a durable record of the steps you have taken. The app runs scheduled scans of your key pages and surfaces accessibility issues, each mapped to WCAG 2.1 AA and EN 301 549, the technical standard behind the European Accessibility Act.
The European Accessibility Act, BFSG in Germany, has applied to shops selling online in the EU since June 2025. Testamur maps each storefront barrier to its EN 301 549 clause and WCAG 2.1 AA criterion. Where a verified fix exists for your theme, you see the file, line and code to change. It drafts your statement from the scan and every scan stays on a dated record. No overlay, no script on your storefront.
