Ever noticed how some apps just “feel right” while others make you want to throw your phone? That’s not magic - it’s psychology in design! Our brains crave simplicity, familiarity, and instant feedback, and smart UX designers tap into these instincts to create seamless experiences.

Take Hick’s Law, for example - the more choices we have, the longer we take to decide (hello, endless Netflix scrolling!). Or Fitts’ Law explains why bigger, closer buttons are easier to tap—think of how effortlessly you hit the “Like” button. Even colour psychology plays a role - blue feels trustworthy, red grabs attention, and green signals success.

Great UX isn’t just about looks; it’s about understanding how people think and act. When design works with the brain, users don’t just use a product - they enjoy it. Now, that’s the real power of psychology in UX!
