Item description

“The Thumb Zone” coined by Steven Hoober is very important factor in design & development for mobile user interfaces. You simply cannot ignore the thumb playing across the mobile screens, which is why it should be taken seriously. You don’t want your user to feel inconvenience when using the thumb to interact with your application or website. Poor consideration in design for the thumb is revealed through these inconveniences.

When you conduct the user interface testing on wireframes with the thumb, you might see a sequence for placement, which you would have technically ignored. Isn’t thumb the way to interact with devices? The way the thumb interacts with the top space may differ from the way it interacts with the bottom space of your mobile device. You will need to consider a few design elements when designing the interface keeping the thumb in mind.

With the thumb movement given some thought, you are ready to launch the app. You will definitely get more users on board if you have given some thought to the thumb approach on the app.
