Color solution
Don’t underestimate the color factor. For 85% of buyers, he main when choosing goods. Plus the color improves recognition brand. For example, red for Youtube, blue for Facebook or Twitter, green for Evernote, orange for Avast. Even for economical work applications color matters. Greenbot testing has shown that the use of black in app interface design saves battery life on AMOLED displays (organic light emitting diodes that are driven by an active matrix). Such displays are commonly used by Samsung, Nokia and HTC.
Icon size in mobile app design
Gadget manufacturers make the diagonal of devices more and more every year. How does a user interact with such a huge screen? For this, application interface designers use ergonomics. All elements must be sized so that the user can reach the icon with his thumb. For this, important elements are placed at the bottom of the screen.
Social media buttons in the mobile app interface
Authorization process often makes users lazy, therefore, to simplify the procedure, platforms use social media integration. Thus, the business receives information about the user: age, place of residence, interests, and the client spends just a couple of seconds to register.
Mobile app gestures
To facilitate interaction with the smartphone screen, as well as to empowering in mobile app design, use gestures … There are entire learning tables for learning them (from simple finger movements to expanded combinations).
KLONA experts recommend reducing the use of gestures if the application is aimed at a wide target audience. Research has proven that a very small percentage of consumers can immediately identify and remember where to use which gesture. And that destroys the ergonomics of your design. It is better to make button navigation with the ability to use gestures, because the consumer can always choose what is more convenient for him.
