Question 1

A designer is choosing between a modal dialog and a bottom sheet to confirm a destructive action. Which is more appropriate and why?

Accepted Answer

Modal dialog, because it demands attention and blocks background interaction

Answer

A modal dialog is appropriate for destructive or critical confirmations because it interrupts the flow and requires an explicit decision before proceeding.

Question 2

What is 'content-first' design in mobile app development?

Accepted Answer

Starting design with real content to shape layout and hierarchy decisions

Answer

Content-first design uses actual content—not lorem ipsum—to guide layout, typography, and hierarchy decisions from the start.

Question 3

Which of the following is a key characteristic of a 'flat design' visual style in mobile apps?

Accepted Answer

Minimalistic UI with little to no use of gradients or shadows

Answer

Flat design removes decorative effects like shadows and gradients, using solid colors, simple shapes, and clear typography instead.

Question 4

When should a designer use a 'snackbar' (toast notification) instead of an alert dialog?

Accepted Answer

When communicating a brief, non-critical message that doesn't require user input

Answer

Snackbars communicate brief, low-priority messages and auto-dismiss, making them ideal for confirmations like 'Message sent' that need no response.

Question 5

What does 'responsive design' mean specifically in the context of a mobile app (not a website)?

Accepted Answer

The layout adapts to different screen sizes, orientations, and densities

Answer

Responsive mobile design means the app's layout and content reflow correctly across different device sizes, pixel densities, and orientations (portrait/landscape).
