Review Summary
Users find the Image Alt Text Viewer extension helpful and easy to use for viewing alt text on images, appreciating the time it saves. Common issues include incorrect alt text display on image sliders, particularly showing the first image's alt text for all slides, and minor tag inconsistencies with SVG images. Users also desire expanded functionality beyond alt text, such as showing aria-labels and other accessibility attributes, along with UI improvements and multi-tab activation features.
