Error Messages Design: Disruptions in UX Design

Описание: Understanding how error messages design impacts user performance is essential for creating efficient, user-friendly interfaces. In this video, Vitaly Friedman shares insights from past studies revealing how disruptions in UX design—especially those caused by poorly timed or excessive error messages—can significantly reduce task completion rates, increase user anxiety, and even lead to abandoned flows. Drawing on data from 2014 and 2006, he explains how users often forget the conditions or steps they were working on before an interruption. This is particularly true in complex enterprise systems, where a single unexpected message can act like a blocker, stalling progress and causing users to lose their place entirely.

Disruptions in UX can come in many forms—error messages in UX design, modal popups, or even helpful UI suggestions—if not timed properly, they can shift attention away from the task. The impact is not just more time on task, but also more mistakes, lower productivity, and increased cognitive load. Error messages in UI design should be handled with care, ensuring they support rather than derail the user journey.

Vitaly Friedman highlights how applying UX design best practices and thoughtful interaction strategies can help minimize unnecessary disruptions in UX. If you're working on UI UX design best practices, especially within enterprise tools, this talk will give you clear guidance on what makes good UI design and how to avoid common pitfalls. The ideas come from practical research and can be applied right away by designers aiming to follow the best practices UI design professionals rely on.
