4 UI/UX mistakes Every Designer Makes

 4 UI/UX mistakes Every Designer Makes

UI and UX design are the two terms which almost every time create a confusion in one’s mind.both are related to web and app and hence make people more confused.

UI is short for User Interface.the UI is a graphical representation of a layout or we can say that it is that part which defines how an application will look like to a user.it consists of buttons,images,text field areas and all other things with which a user interacts.this all work is assigned to the UI designers and they decide how an application will look like.

UX is short for User Experience.okay,now you would be wondering what is so different about UI and UX. user experience is defined by how the user feels about using the application. Are all the functions of an application running smooth ,are they confusing or clear,does it feel like real while navigating through an application or it feels arbitrary or unreal.

I hope now you peeps must have got a hint of how both UI and UX are different terms in the same aspect.

If it is confusing us, in understanding the real difference between these two why not the designers can be confused. A UI designer creates a design for user and a UX designer is responsible for how the design created by UI designer will operate.

Since the concept is very mixed up it is very common for designers to make mistakes while designing the UI or UX of an application.the model which designers are given are conceptual but sometimes they mess up the designs .

Here we will list down some of the common mistakes a designer makes :

1. Overconfidence- designers sometimes think over confidently about the model of their project. But the mistake is not in the model ,it is in the mind of designer.the success of a website depends on how well the designer’s design is merged with user requirement design.so the best thing you can do about this is to build such a design in which both the conceptual model and the user’s mental model is kept in mind.
2. Designer’s Assumptions- it is quite often that designers make certain assumptions in their mind. They think that user will just have a look at the website and find all the information in it.the designers should realize that their level of understanding and knowledge is far different from the user. So create a website user can easily get with.
3. Unresponsive Design- sometimes the designers fail to understand that there is not only 1 user which is going to access their website,but multiple people and that too from different mediums.slow loading or website not responding are common issues faced by customers.it should work well on both desktop and mobile.
4. Obeying their bosses beyond limit-their is a difference in obeying and pleasing the boss .designers should keep in mind the customers need first.
