Introduction

Usability is a key aspect of user experience (UX) design and is evaluated based on several criteria:

  • Ease of Use: How intuitively a user can navigate and perform tasks.
  • Efficiency: The speed and ease with which tasks can be completed.
  • Learnability: How quickly new users can become proficient with the interface.
  • Memorability: How easily users can recall how to use the system after a period of not using it.
  • Error Handling: The system’s ability to prevent errors or help users recover from them.
  • Satisfaction: The overall user comfort and positive feelings while interacting with the product.

Improving usability ensures that products are user-friendly and accessible, which in turn can lead to higher user engagement and satisfaction.
