What's new

  • Alternative text for your Logo. Under Settings > Profile and terms, the Brand group's Logo now has an Alternative text field of up to 150 characters. Uploading a new Logo needs it, and the setup wizard's Look step asks for it too.
  • Used in your PDFs. Application PDFs and decision letters describe your logo with this text, so people using a screen reader hear what it shows.
  • Existing logos. A Logo saved before today shows a reminder to add the text. Until you do, PDFs describe it as your organisation's name followed by "logo".
