May be you have observed or not, there is a place to add the captions for videos and the photos on the status updates. But they are not mandatory. Post button must disable till the users add the captions/alt text to the status.

Doesn't this dull our experience? I request everyone on this group to write them an Email highlighting this issue. I don't know why, no one responded to me. I respect everyone's time and am trying to do something which will benefit all of us. Only me writing to them may not create a big impact but a hundred such mails might be taken seriously. So do reply, I have already posted the mail on the group written by me which anyone can edit and send to them. So, if you want to support my initiative, write them a mail at accessibil...@support.whatsapp.com <mailto:accessibil...@support.whatsapp.com> Thanks in advance.
