The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) evolve regularly. 

With WCAG 2.2 now the standard, businesses must upgrade from WCAG 2.0 to avoid compliance gaps. 

But what’s changed, and how can you prepare?

Key Differences Between WCAG 2.0 and 2.2

• Focus indicators: clearer focus states for keyboard users.
• Animation controls: ability to pause or disable motion.
• Cognitive accessibility: simplified instructions and clearer labels.

Why the Upgrade Matters

• WCAG 2.0 is outdated and no longer enough for ADA/EAA compliance.
• Non-compliance exposes businesses to lawsuits and reputational damage.
• Customers expect modern, inclusive experiences.
