Keep It Short and Simple

Conceptual Design

Keep It Short and Simple (KISS) is a design principle that emphasizes brevity and clarity. Complex interfaces confuse users, increase errors, and reduce completion rates.

Every extra step, word, or option you add is friction that can cause users to abandon the experience.

Rule of thumb: If you can remove something without losing meaning or function, remove it.
