The Three Tap Rule

Posted by in Mobile, UX with 0 Comments

Mudassir Azeeim recently had the pleasure of being a guest blogger on Bayarea Startup Weekend with Ahmed Siddiqui on a mobile UX rule which he coined it “Three Tap Rule”. The “Three Tap Rule” basically states that if you can’t engage the user in three taps or less, you’ve lost them.

Here is how an ideal app should operate:

  1. Tap 1: Launch the app
  2. Tap 2: Press the play button
  3. Tap 3: Engage in the content, or in a game, make your superhero jump around

Here in this article he discussed about Pie Chart and why they are not so great for representing the data. Read it here
