Summary
This Success Criterion means websites must give users warnings about time limits. It’s meant to help people who might need extra time to think or read. It applies unless the time limit is critical, such as in an online auction.
Lyrics
VERSE 1: In the silence of the screen, a timer starts to play Twenty hours given freely, or time just melts away Two point two point six reminds us, every user has their pace Some need moments to consider, some need time and space
CHORUS: When time runs out, give warning clear Twenty seconds minimum, let them know it’s near Extended time or saved progress, choices must appear When time runs out, accessibility is here
VERSE 2: A mother feeds her baby while filling forms online A student thinks more slowly, but their answers still shine fine The clock should never punish those who need a different way Two point two point six protects them, keeps their data safe today
CHORUS: When time runs out, give warning clear Twenty seconds minimum, let them know it’s near Extended time or saved progress, choices must appear When time runs out, accessibility is here
BRIDGE/OUTRO:** Unless it’s live or urgent, time should bend to human need Essential tasks, real auctions, these exceptions we concede But most of all remember, when you build for everyone Two point two point six ensures no person comes undone
