Hey folks!
I'd like to talk about the usefulness of the ESC key, improving UX when interacting with a dropdown list and typing birthday date.
But before embarking on reading I leave the link on my Substack newsletter about UX and a11y tips. You know what to make 😎
Also, thank you so much, my sponsors: Ben Rinehart, Tatiana Ten, Jesse Willard, Konstantinos Kapenekakis. I didn't write this article without their support.
Let's go!
Please, close popups using the Esc key
Uh Uh... It's so sad when apps like Preply ignore users that try to close popups with Esc😒
Blimey! Thank you the NHL app they allow users to close popups with Esc. We don't have to use a mouse🥳
Help users with a keyboard to switch between dropdown list items
It's sad that apps like Preply ignore pushing ↑ or ↓ to switch between dropdown list items.
So users can't make the same without a mouse😒It's why I dream apps will be like NHL. They allow to use and a mouse and keyboard🤩
Use a keyboard with big numbers instead of small
Why do apps like Booking make to type a birthday date with the small numbers keyboard? It's so easy to tap number! No, it's a challenge for me and people with hand tremors😒Please, use the large numbers keyboard. It's more simple😉
