Image Descriptions for Social Media – ScreenCastsONLINE Tutorial

In the olden days, it used to be really hard to add descriptions to images when posting to social media. You probably know that without an image description, people with visual impairments who use screen readers get zero values out of your posts. But it was so hard that a lot of people didn’t bother to include everyone.

But nowadays it’s really easy to add alternative text for screen reader users. My latest ScreenCastsONLINE tutorial is all about how to add descriptions to your images on Facebook, Instagram, Mastodon, Discord, and Threads, and for bonus points how to use Be My Eyes to write your alt text for you with Mona for Mastodon.

You can watch the full tutorial on ScreenCastsONLINE with a free 7-day trial at www.screencastsonline.com/…, and I included a teaser video for you here.
