Impact theme: automated accessibility test

On September 29, 2026 the AccessifyAI scanner tested the official demo store of Impact 7.2.0 by Maestrooo on 4 pages. It found 3 issue types (11 occurrences in total). For 9 of the 12 WCAG 2.2 criteria this index evaluates it found nothing.

Is Impact accessible?

An automated test cannot answer that on its own. What this one shows is 3 types of issues on the Impact demo store within the 12 criteria this index evaluates, listed below. The content, apps and settings of your store decide much of the result. Of the 55 WCAG 2.2 Level A and AA criteria, the scanner tests 15, this index reports 12, and the other 40 need a person to check them.

This is not a certification and not a legal assessment.

What the test found

Zoom blocked in the viewport tag

WCAG 2.2 1.4.4 Resize text, Level AA

4 occurrences, found on: Home page, Collection page, Product page, Cart page

Why it matters for shoppers: People with low vision cannot pinch to zoom on a phone.
Where it usually lives in a Shopify theme: The viewport meta tag in layout/theme.liquid.
Direction for a fix: Remove maximum-scale values below 2 and user-scalable=no.
Examples from the demo store: meta[name=viewport]

Image without an alt attribute

WCAG 2.2 1.1.1 Non-text content, Level A

1 occurrence, found on: Home page

Why it matters for shoppers: A screen reader skips the image or reads out its file name, so a blind shopper does not learn what the product photo shows.
Where it usually lives in a Shopify theme: Product card and product media snippets, image banners, slideshow and image-with-text sections, and sometimes the logo in the header.
Direction for a fix: Output the alt text stored with the image, fall back to the product or section title, and give purely decorative images an empty alt="".
Examples from the demo store: img

The same id is used more than once

WCAG 2.2 4.1.2 Name, role, value, Level A

6 occurrences, found on: Home page, Collection page, Product page, Cart page

Why it matters for shoppers: Labels, error messages and aria references can point at the wrong element, so a field or control may lose its name.
Where it usually lives in a Shopify theme: Sections rendered twice on one page, such as desktop and mobile headers, cart drawer and cart page, or country and language selectors in both header and footer.
Direction for a fix: Make generated ids unique, for example by adding the section id to them.
Examples from the demo store: "product_form_7664878485754", 2×
"product_form_7664878485754", 3×
"filter.v.price.gte", 2×

Evaluated criteria without findings: 9 of 12

Without findings means the automated test found nothing for the criterion on these pages. Several of these criteria can only be tested in part by a machine.

1.3.1 Info and relationships (Level A)
1.4.2 Audio control (Level A)
2.4.1 Bypass blocks (Level A)
2.4.2 Page titled (Level A)
2.4.3 Focus order (Level A)
2.4.4 Link purpose (in context) (Level A)
3.1.1 Language of page (Level A)
3.2.1 On focus (Level A)
3.3.8 Accessible authentication (minimum) (Level AA)

Not evaluated in this index

1.4.3 Contrast (minimum) (Level AA): needs the rendered page with its stylesheets
2.4.11 Focus not obscured (minimum) (Level AA): needs the rendered page with its stylesheets
2.5.8 Target size (minimum) (Level AA): needs the rendered page with its stylesheets

Also noted, Level AAA

Level AAA goes beyond what EN 301 549, the standard behind the EAA and the BFSG, asks for. These points are listed for completeness and are not counted above.

Link opens a new tab without saying so (3.2.5 Change on request): 44
Link text such as “Read more” on its own (2.4.9 Link purpose (link only)): 3

What this result does not tell you

The scanner checks 15 of the 55 WCAG 2.2 Level A and AA success criteria, some of them only in part, and this index reports 12 of them. Keyboard use, focus visibility, captions, error messages and most of what makes a checkout usable need a person to check.
Contrast (minimum), focus not obscured and target size are not evaluated here: they need the rendered page with its stylesheets, and this test does not load stylesheets. Their findings are left out of every count on this page.
It tests the demo store as it was on the scan date: demo content, settings and apps included. A store built on the same theme can have more or fewer findings.
The scanner reads the HTML the server sends, without running scripts or loading external stylesheets. Content that scripts add after the page loads is not part of this test.
It is not a certification and not a legal assessment of the theme or of any store that uses it.
