🤔 Tips
What to keep in mind while designing a Social Network, these tips apply to other App interfaces too
1⃣-Be Visual: Mobile screens are not so big after all, use recognizable icons whenever possible, nobody wants a heavy text app and not small text either.
2⃣-Rule of thumb: With mobile phones getting bigger every day, you want to make sure that users will be able to use your app with ease without stretching.
3⃣-Follow Guidelines: Android users and iOS users don't follow the same design principles, so make sure to either design for both systems or implement them on both.
4⃣-Keep an Eye on Trends: Your main focus should always be UX but UX without a trendy look will hardly make it to surface.
-Don't leave secondary screens behind: Notifications, popups, errors, these are all part of the design.
5⃣-Stick to core UI Principles: You don't have to invent the wheel every time you design an app, users will enjoy more a familiar interface.
6⃣-Learn From Others: Use other apps, see what others are doing, analyze their design and learn from it, implement and improve.
