TikTok is rolling out support for ALT text for photo posts to make content more accessible for users with visual and cognitive impairments. The company says creators can now provide descriptive text for photos to help users with screen readers understand the visual content through spoken descriptions.

TikTok told TechCrunch in an email that creators can add ALT text during the upload process, or after a post has been published.

With this launch, TikTok joins numerous other social networks that support ALT text, including Instagram, Facebook, X (formerly Twitter), Reddit, Mastodon, Tumblr, and more.

ALT text joins TikTok’s existing suite of accessibility tools, which includes features like auto-generated captions for video content and the ability to adjust text size across the app.
