Accessibility
Make your videos more
accessible for everyone
Our accessible player is built to
showcase your brand
What may seem like small changes between our old player and our new player will make a big impact when it comes to making your videos more accessible.
Improved mobile
experience
High-contrast color picker designed with aesthetics in mind
Increased opacity of the controls and colors
Add audio descriptions and captions
from a single video file
With Wistia, you can include captions, audio descriptions (or both!) from a single video file — unlike other players that require you to upload separate files for each accessibility element.
Audio descriptions act as a narration to describe key visual elements in your videos, making them more accessible for people with low vision.
Captions are an easy way to increase accessibility for everyone — for people who are deaf or hard-of-hearing and for anyone who needs, or prefers, to enjoy videos without sound.
