The border radius trick
Don’t use the same rounded corner for a shape inside another
one, it will look off. Instead, use the 1:2 rule. This way, your
component will look perfectly fitted.

Touch targets should go beyond an element's visible
boundaries. A button or an icon, for example, can appear to be
much smaller, yet the surrounding padding contains the entire

Don’t use thin and light fonts
Although it sometimes can look good, it will be very difficult
for some people to read it. To improve the readability of your
designs, use at least the regular weight of the font.

Use proper font sizes
Make sure to use typography to your advantage and convey
the content hierarchy by using proper font sizes. If in doubt,
refer to standardized type scales for iOS and Android.
For web, start from 16 px for body text and increase it by 8 for
every heading size from hé5 to hl.g @uisergio 08.
Provide extra information
Sometimes we try to design in a "minimalist" way and leave
behind some elements that we think are not very important.
It never hurts to over-inform our user in some cases.
