Hi there,

Currently, ALT tags of product is using product name by default. There is no option to add ALT tags for images now.

Sincerely, Giang

In Europe, there is the European Accessibility Act (EAA, commission.europa.eu/strategy-and-policy...accessibility-act_en ), which will be mandatory for shops in Germany from 28 June 2025.:
‘All non-text content that is presented to the user has a text alternative that serves the equivalent purpose, ...’ ( www.w3.org/TR/WCAG22/#non-text-content ) is the basis for the regulation.

Unfortunately, it is not sufficient if only the product name or the content of ‘Page Title’ or ‘Alt Image ’ is used for all product images.

Good point and well made. Thanks for the research.

Each image should have its own unique Alt tag.
