Good navigation is simple, clear, and straightforward. It's vital on mobile, where users expect to complete their tasks in the least possible amount of time.
What can improve navigation?
- Show the name of the current page. To navigate successfully, users should always be able to answer the question "Where am I?"
- Break down big tasks into easy steps to minimize the cognitive load. For example, instead of offering a long checkout form, ask users to fill in information over multiple screens: their shipping address, billing information, and order confirmation can each be on separate screens.
- Emphasize important information. You can do so by increasing the font size, adding white space, and ensuring that the element's color contrasts well with the background color.
