This year we’ve seen amazing innovative UX trends for app design and we cannot wait to see what 2022 has in store for us. After the pandemic started we’ve seen designers really going out of their way to improve the experience of online users everywhere. Since 94% of first impressions are based on how easy it is to navigate your app. It’s becoming more and more crucial to come up with new ways to improve the way people use mobile applications. In this matter the simpler the navigation the better, but simple doesn’t always mean less, it rather means prioritizing function quality.
In this article we will explore the 5 top exciting UX app trends that we can expect in 2022.
One UX app trend is simplifying navigation by influencing and guiding rather than overwhelming the user. Often too many options translate into no action and can really turn off users, whereas if you follow a strict user journey you will realize that navigation is there simply to guide the user and not to show off every single feature the app provides.
Micro interactions are a UX design technique to engage the audience. It is a small animation or pop up triggered by a user action. This makes the experience much more alive, feeling very much like a human interaction.
The login process does not have to be a pain anymore. A UX app design trend that is likely to take over in 2022 is the use of a PIN through a mobile phone authentication feature rather than an email and password feature. A 4 digit code is much more memorable than a password. And even better than a 4 digit code is fingerprint authentication which is likely to become a dominant trend.
This UX app design trend is particularly used to smooth the user experience in a seamless way from step 1 to step 2 and so forth. This is all about continuity and guiding the user into a very smooth journey from A to B to C. This UX app design trend could be a smooth payment experience or an online shopping experience, from the landing page to the end payment process.
Swiping and tapping and interaction within an app is crucial for user engagement. On this UX app design trend data does not have to be boring. A simple graph showing minor interaction is all you need to successfully engage the users with complex data. When done correct this UX app design trend can have a massive impact is the app and create a much more enjoyable user experience
