Jackrabbit Mobile User Experience & Interface (UX/UI) Guide
Mobile-First First design your interfaces and features to perform
perfectly on mobile, and then scale up as necessary.
Navigation & Call to Action Think through how users enter your app and navigate through
functionality. Make the call to action obvious and accessible.
Content The best interface is no interface. Emphasize the
content to display and functions users can perform.
Context Consider when and how the app will be used. Is it dark?
Night driving mode. Are they in the subway? Offline access.
Are they downtown? Offer nearby recommendations.
