The does and don'ts of mobile UX.
One big difference with mobile UX is that nowadays the vast majority of people are using touchscreens. That allows you to give users tactile feedback that can really enhance their experience of your site.
A static webpage won’t be as engaging as something that’s a bit more dynamic, and rollovers, hover states and animations can all bring a website to life. So add support for touch gestures, and also subtle movements of iconography to draw the user’s eye.Carousels remain a pretty popular feature in web design, but the statistics suggest they shouldn't – at least not for mobile. In fact, Google data suggests less than one per cent of mobile users actually engage with carousels.
The problem is that every time a carousel changes, the impact of the previous slide is immediately lost. Therefore, it's not a good idea to hide key content behind a slider. Instead, stack it vertically down the page and the user will do a more natural vertical scroll.If the approach is to get a release as early as possible, it’s easy to end up focusing on only the most vital features of a site.
There’s always a risk of mobile users losing engagement and being distracted by external variables. This is more the case than with desktop because of the situations in which users tend to be using their devices. To account for this, try to make the interface easy to pick up from where they left off. Break big tasks and forms down, and make everything as simple as possible.One of the key pillars of user experience best practice is consistency.
