All 58 atomic check outcomes

Principle / checkStatusConfidenceEvidence or reason
respect-user-preferences
respects-color-scheme
issueshighUnder prefers-color-scheme: dark, matchMedia returned true but the root color-scheme remained normal and the body stayed rgb(255,255,255) with rgb(29,29,31) text. The dark-condition screenshot is visually the same light surface.
F-001 medium: The public marketing surface does not follow the user’s dark color-scheme preference.
respect-user-preferences
respects-reduced-motion
passhighUnder prefers-reduced-motion: reduce, the only long 3000 ms gallery animation was paused; product CSS contained seven reduced-motion rules.
respect-user-preferences
respects-contrast
passhighThe prefers-contrast: more screenshot retained visible controls and text, and product CSS contained two prefers-contrast/forced-colors rules.
implement-natural-interactions
view-transitions
issueshighLive CSS inspection across 1,789,564 bytes on the product detail page found zero view-transition rules, while category-to-detail navigation is a prominent state change.
F-002 low: Cross-document product navigation does not use View Transitions.
implement-natural-interactions
scroll-driven-animations
passhighProduct-page CSS contained three animation-timeline/scroll-timeline references and the scroll video showed smooth declarative scrollytelling without recorded blocking work.
implement-natural-interactions
physical-gestures
passhighProduct CSS contained 12 scroll-snap references and the recorded scroll journey followed native scrolling without a custom pointer-only requirement.
provide-guided-navigation
scroll-state-aware-chrome
passhighThe product scroll video shows persistent global/local navigation and page chrome retaining orientation as the narrative advances.
provide-guided-navigation
anchored-positioning
issuesmediumThe product CSS probe found zero anchor-name, position-anchor, or position-try rules and counted 35 custom role=dialog/aria-modal surfaces.
F-003 low: Overlay positioning uses custom modal plumbing rather than CSS anchor positioning.
provide-guided-navigation
directs-attention
passhighThe listing and product pages use clear local navigation, highlighted product identity, directional gallery controls, and stable visual progression into the Buy action.
maximize-content-reduce-noise
no-intrusive-interruptions
passhighLoad screenshots show content immediately; the regional selector is compact, dismissible, and does not cover the primary content.
maximize-content-reduce-noise
semantic-dismissible-primitives
issueshighRendered DOM inspection found 35 custom role=dialog/aria-modal surfaces but zero dialog, popover, or details elements on the product page; the homepage global flyout is also custom div chrome.
F-004 medium: Rich overlays are implemented as custom ARIA modal structures instead of native dialog or popover primitives.
maximize-content-reduce-noise
reduced-chrome
passhighAcross homepage, listing, detail, and accessibility templates, primary content dominates the viewport and global chrome remains compact.
adapt-to-the-form-factor
responsive-no-horizontal-scroll
passhighAll four mobile layout captures reported scrollWidth equal to 360, viewport metadata present, and horizontalOverflowPx 0.
adapt-to-the-form-factor
component-level-responsiveness
issueshighLive CSS inspection found zero @container rules across 1,789,564 bytes of product-page CSS, despite reusable cards, galleries, local navigation, and commerce modules appearing in multiple widths.
F-005 low: Responsive behavior is viewport-driven rather than component-driven.
adapt-to-the-form-factor
input-modality-aware
passhighLighthouse passed target-size; key links show a 2 px blue focus outline, and global menu controls expose 48 px interaction boxes.
support-core-task-success
clear-purpose-and-primary-action
passhighEach first viewport names the product or purpose and exposes a clear Shop, Buy, compare, search, or recovery action.
support-core-task-success
primary-flow-completion
passhighThe journey from product narrative to the live Buy iPhone 17 Pro configurator completed without an account wall; model choices, prices, financing, trade-in details, and a progressive Continue control were present.
support-core-task-success
clear-system-state-and-recovery
passhighThe empty search state says no matches and invites another search; the 404 page names the failure and offers search plus sitemap recovery.
be-fast-and-stable
good-core-web-vitals
issueshighLighthouse measured LCP 11.7 s and CLS 0.166 on the homepage. First-party mobile layout capture measured CLS 0.194 on the product detail page and 0.282 on the accessibility page.
F-006 high: Lab Core Web Vitals are outside the good range on key templates.
be-fast-and-stable
visual-stability
issueshighThe layout observer recorded CLS 0.282 on /accessibility/ and 0.194 on /iphone-17-pro/, both above the good threshold of 0.1, with shifts beginning around 1.5 to 3.4 seconds.
F-007 high: Late content causes substantial layout shift on representative pages.
be-fast-and-stable
efficient-main-thread
passhighThe trace recorded zero long tasks and 0 ms total blocking time; Lighthouse measured 23 ms TBT. Isolated mobile route tasks were short, with the longest observed at 87 ms.
be-fast-and-stable
efficient-resource-delivery
issueshighThe HAR recorded 2.32 MB transferred, including 1.18 MB across seven fonts. It identified nine parser-inserted VeryHigh-priority stylesheets as render-blocking candidates; Lighthouse’s 11.7 s LCP corroborates delayed delivery.
F-008 medium: The critical path carries a large font payload and many parser-blocking stylesheets.
be-fast-and-stable
trim-unused-and-duplicate-code
issueshighLighthouse estimated 117 KiB unused JavaScript and 40 KiB unused CSS. The main home bundle was 83.8% unused in the trace window and several stylesheets were 81% to 92% unused.
F-009 medium: The homepage ships substantial unused JavaScript and CSS.
be-inclusive
names-roles-labels
passhighLighthouse passed image-alt, button-name, and link-name; Buy and search controls expose explicit accessible names in DOM probes.
be-inclusive
sufficient-contrast
issueshighLighthouse found action labels with contrast ratios from 1.64:1 to 2.5:1, including “Stream now”, “Play now”, and “Listen now”, below the required 4.5:1 for the rendered text sizes.
F-010 high: Entertainment-gallery action labels fail WCAG contrast.
be-inclusive
structure-and-focus
passhighLighthouse passed heading order and the single-main landmark; representative primary controls expose visible 2 px focus outlines.
be-inclusive
legible-text
passhighScreenshots show large, well-spaced headings, comfortable measure, stable alignment, and no clipped primary copy across desktop, mobile, and RTL routes.
be-inclusive
zoom-reflow-targets-and-media
passhighLighthouse passed zoom policy and target size; 360 px layouts reflow without horizontal overflow. The accessibility template provides a dedicated accessible media context.
follow-best-practices
no-console-errors
passhighLighthouse reported no browser errors logged to the console.
follow-best-practices
sound-document-and-assets
issueshighThe images primitive found all 47 img elements lacked width and height attributes. Although the homepage layout sample was stable, other templates recorded CLS above 0.19, so relying on CSS and late image state is fragile.
F-011 medium: Image elements omit intrinsic dimensions across the homepage.
follow-best-practices
browser-platform-hygiene
passhighLighthouse passed deprecated APIs, BFCache, geolocation-on-start, notification-on-start, and best-practices overall (1.00).
be-discoverable
title-and-description
passhighThe homepage has title “Apple” and a descriptive meta description; Lighthouse passed both title and meta-description audits.
be-discoverable
crawlable-and-mobile-friendly
issueshighLighthouse reported eight non-descriptive links: seven “Learn more” labels across different products and one “here” terms link. The destinations are crawlable, but the link text has little standalone meaning.
F-012 medium: Repeated generic link labels weaken page comprehension and search context.
be-discoverable
canonical-and-indexing-signals
passhighThe homepage returned 200, declares canonical https://www.apple.com/, publishes extensive hreflang alternates, allows general crawling, and is listed in sitemap.xml.
be-discoverable
structured-and-shareable-metadata
passhighThe homepage publishes JSON-LD for Organization, WebSite with SearchAction, and WebPage, aligned with visible Apple content.
be-private-and-secure
secure-transport-and-headers
issueshighThe headers primitive found a CSP that allows both unsafe-inline and unsafe-eval. Cookie inspection found the geo cookie lacked Secure and all six cookies used SameSite=None.
F-013 high: Transport is HTTPS, but cookie and CSP settings leave avoidable exposure.
be-private-and-secure
data-minimisation-and-third-parties
issueshighThe HAR and tracker probe recorded two securemetrics.apple.com requests and first-load analytics cookies including s_vi/s_fid. The metrics request included a visitor identifier, page, locale, currency, screen, and viewport fields.
F-014 medium: Analytics collection begins on first load before an explicit privacy choice.
be-private-and-secure
in-context-permissions-and-modern-auth
passhighLighthouse passed geolocation and notification on-start audits; permission states remained prompt, and the sampled buy journey did not force sign-in before product configuration.
be-private-and-secure
defensive-browser-policies
issueshighHSTS, nosniff, and X-Frame-Options are present, but Permissions-Policy is absent and Referrer-Policy remains no-referrer-when-downgrade rather than a stricter modern policy.
F-015 medium: Defensive response policy coverage is incomplete.
be-resilient
progressive-enhancement
passhighRaw HTML retained 96% of homepage content words and 99% of product-page content words; neither route is a JS shell and crawler screenshots preserve meaningful content.
be-resilient
resilient-runtime-behaviour
passhighGlobal, product, gallery, and commerce controls loaded into usable states across four templates; no console exceptions were reported and the buy configurator preserved clear disabled/active state.
be-resilient
offline-and-installable
not-applicablehighNo manifest or service-worker registration was present, but this was judged contextual rather than a defect.
be-resilient
network-and-http-failure-states
passhighA real unknown route rendered a branded 404 with a precise explanation, search field, and sitemap link rather than a blank shell or infinite spinner.
be-internationalised
lang-dir-and-logical-properties
passhighThe UAE Arabic route declares lang=ar-AE and dir=rtl, renders the global navigation in RTL order, and live CSS included 674 logical-property references.
be-internationalised
locale-aware-data
passhighThe site publishes more than 100 hreflang locale alternates and the ar-AE route localises language, regional offer content, numerals, and reading direction rather than presenting the US template unchanged.
be-internationalised
time-zone-correctness
not-applicablehighRepresentative paths contained no time-zone-sensitive interaction to judge.
be-trustworthy
no-dark-patterns
passhighProduct and buy screenshots disclose full price, monthly price, term length, trade-in ranges, model differences, and financing details before Continue; no preselected continuity or confirmshaming appeared.
be-trustworthy
humane-error-handling
passhighSearch and 404 failures use neutral language, explain what happened, preserve context, and provide immediate recovery controls.
be-trustworthy
trustworthy-input-assistance
not-applicablehighForm probes listed search inputs only.
be-trustworthy
safe-commercial-and-account-flows
passhighThe buy flow presents model prices, financing duration, carrier deals, trade-in bounds, help, return questions, and an intentionally disabled Continue until a model is chosen.
be-sustainable
optimised-assets
issueshighThe image audit found 47 legacy PNG/JPEG images, no modern-format img sources, 29 below-fold images without loading=lazy, 23 without srcset on the img element, and 47 without intrinsic dimensions.
F-016 medium: Image delivery misses modern format, lazy-loading, and intrinsic-size opportunities.
be-sustainable
no-wasteful-work
passhighThe trace recorded no long tasks or background blocking time, and only two low-byte third-party requests were observed; main-thread work remained bounded during the sampled load.
be-sustainable
third-party-and-media-budget
issueshighThe HAR transferred 2.32 MB in 51 requests before broad page exploration, dominated by 1.18 MB of fonts and 513 KB of images. The page also initializes analytics and media resources during load.
F-017 medium: The first-view resource budget is high for a marketing landing page.
be-agent-ready
structured-agent-capabilities
not-applicablehighCapability probe found no WebMCP or agent tool registration, while raw HTML remains highly crawler-readable.
be-agent-ready
on-device-inference
not-applicablehighThe browser exposes built-in AI APIs, but the page does not present an inference use case.
be-memory-efficient
no-leak-under-repeated-interaction
passhighAfter ten alternating entertainment-gallery interactions, snapshot node count fell from 294,757 to 294,505 and self size fell from 17,420,468 to 17,372,484 bytes; same-session used heap also fell from 4.81 MB to 3.92 MB.
be-memory-efficient
bounded-footprint
passhighThe homepage retained about 17.4 MB of snapshot self size and 294k heap nodes for a media-rich marketing page, with no growth after representative interaction.
be-memory-efficient
no-detached-dom-or-unbounded-listeners
passhighRepeated gallery interaction left DOM element count unchanged at 1,203; heap node/closure/object counts did not grow and no Detached constructor appeared among retained top constructors.
