Happy Monday!

Is timed messages ok as per WCAG? If it is ok, what should be the time
limit for the timed messages? Recommendations?


Thanks in advance!

Regards,

Are you talking about a toast message? If so, they almost always have a
2.2.1 Timing Adjustable issue. There are general UX issues with toast
messages so it's difficult to make them accessible.

Scott has a good article on toast messages and it contains links for other
toast articles.
