Improve Mobile UX with UX Design Best Practices

Boost UX with Mobile UX Design Principles and Best Practices

Most mobile experiences suffer from poor UX for one simple reason: their creators failed to observe mobile UX design best practices, standards, and conventions.

It’s tough out there for a mobile designer/developer. At least a thousand new apps pour into the Google Play Store and Apple’s App Store each day. However, more than 75% of Apps are downloaded, opened once, and never used again! A lot of this can be attributed to the bad usability of apps.

To reduce abandonment rates and increase conversions we need to look at mobile UX design best practices, “golden rules,” standards, and conventions. We’ll look at examples — the good the bad, and the ugly — and at practical ways to boost mobile UX.

A tale of two door handles

That is a door handle on the left. And, that's also a door handle on the right! You know you have a #designfail when you have to tape a hand-written note with instructions next to something! It’s often the same with some mobile UIs. As we use many different apps, we find that things work differently from UI to UI.
