Let's now talk about how you should talk, mister. Just kidding. Anyway, text is important. Every word in your app is part of a conversation with your users. I know some designers who care only about the visuals and don't care about the text. And they let the mistakes slide in.
Definitely should not be the case with the UI and UX design. Anyway, I'm getting sidetracked. Apple tells us use the text to help users feel comfortable in your app. Let's go over the guidelines related to the terminology. First, use familiar understandable words and phrases. Technology can be intimidating.
Avoid acronyms and technical jargon that people might not understand. Use what you know about your audience to determine whether certain words or phrases are appropriate in general apps That appeal to everyone should steer clear of highly technical language. Such language may be appropriate in apps that target our more advanced or technical crowd. Keep interface decks clear and concise. People absorb short, direct text quickly and easily. And don't appreciate being forced to read long passages to accomplish a task.
Identify the most important information, express it succinctly and present it prominently so people don't have to read too much to find what they're looking for. or figure out what to do next. Avoid language that might sound patronizing, avoid we are me and my, for example, our tutorial and my workouts. There are some times interpreted is insulting and patronizing Apple tells us I personally don't see how my workouts can be patronizing but anyway Strive for an informal friendly tone. And I found it very formal and unfriendly saying this phrase anyway. An informal, approachable style echoes the way you speak with people over lunch.
Use contractions occasionally, such as done mics, and you and your to address the user directly. Be careful when using humor. Remember that people are likely to read the text in your interface many times and what might seem like clever it first can become irritating over time. Also, remember that humor in one culture doesn't necessarily translate well to other cultures.
