Personas

Basic Principals of Mobile

Readability Unreadable Readable without zooming Must zoom Fits perfectly within screen

Navigation Content is somewhere way the heck up here Hotspots visible Navigation & clickable only along side after zoomed 10x the content

Fitts’s Law “ In ergonomics, Fitts's law is a model of human movement which predicts the time required to rapidly move to a target area, as a function of the distance to the target and the size of the target.” Description of Fitts’s Law Wikipedia

Hotspots Super size hotspots Barely navigable with microscopic Visually hotspots called out navigation Use larger headings & visual hints

Pagination The world’s smallest pagination Excellent pagination solution

Search A typical A perfect search case for interaction search ahead

Buttons A very typical web button I like big buttons!
