?? What Makes Great Design Usable? ??
As a UI/UX designer, I believe usability is the heart of every successful design. Here’s a quick breakdown of my approach to creating user-centered experiences:
?? Usability = Easy + Efficient + Enjoyable
Key Elements:
1?? Learnability – A design should be intuitive and easy for first-time users to understand.
2?? Efficiency – A seamless experience that allows users to complete tasks quickly and easily.
3?? Memorability – A design that sticks with users and is easy to navigate even after a break.
4?? Error Handling – The design should allow for mistakes without frustrating users and should offer clear solutions.
5?? Satisfaction – Ultimately, users should feel happy, empowered, and satisfied with the experience.
?? My Tip: Start by testing early with real users and iterate based on their feedback. Small improvements can have a huge impact on how users feel about your design. Focus on understanding their needs and making their experience as seamless as possible.
