About

Accessibility overlays (such as AccessiBe, AudioEye, UserWay, EqualWeb, and others) claim to make websites accessible automatically. However, for real users who rely on native assistive technologies like NVDA, JAWS, or VoiceOver, these third-party widgets often do more harm than good. They can disrupt established navigation habits, create confusing page structures, and cause severe conflicts with system-level settings.
Accessibility Overlay Blocker restores the web to its natural state. It empowers users by stopping these tools from loading in the first place

If you're thinking about using an accessibility overlay for your website, the answer is here --> https://shouldiuseanaccessibilityoverlay.com/

If you're unsure "what this is all about" or "what the heck a web accessibility overlay is," read this ---> https://overlayfactsheet.com/en/

Attention: On some pages, the accessibility overlay button may appear, but their scripts will not work on the page. If you encounter any errors where the complete overlay page appears or any function that is working even with the extension enabled or reloaded, please report it here in the reviews or in the support section.

We do not collect any data through the extension. The extension only monitors whether the website contains any accessibility overlays and if they are injecting any scripts into the page, disabling them afterwards.

Who is this for?
This extension is built for screen reader users, keyboard-only navigators, accessibility advocates, developers, and anyone who prefers to use their own customized device settings rather than being forced to use a website's overlay.
