19. How to embrace gestures?"
² Use gestures if the context they are used in feels
natural!
² Make sure your users will find them!
ª Draw attention to the part of the UI where the gesture is
active – maybe it could pulse the first time to signify it is
interactive!
ª Perform an animation that hints to the type of gesture !
² If you don’t think users will figure out your gestures
easily, don’t overload them with too many help hints
all at once, instead reveal them over time!
