Two UI Design Tips of the week


Tip #1

Calling and emphasising importance to information is a crucial part of UI. Spotify does this well by using colors that contrast and share the message across quickly.

Tip #2

Status of a running system in the background helps human beings keep tab and manage them. The MacOS does this well by providing a single space for users to manage background video or audio running on various apps.
