Creating intuitive, efficient interfaces for small screens with touch interaction.

Principles

Material Design

Google's Android design language. Material as metaphor, bold graphics, meaningful motion. Material 3 adds dynamic colour.

Navigation

Tab bar (top-level), navigation stack (push/pop), drawer (side menu), bottom sheet, modal (focused tasks).

Prototyping

Wireframes, mockups, interactive prototypes. Figma (industry standard), Sketch, Adobe XD. User testing validates design.

Responsive Design

Adapt to screen sizes, orientations, accessibility settings (font size, dark mode). Flexible grids and constraints.

Summary

Mobile UI/UX combines platform guidelines, design principles, and prototyping for engaging experiences.
