Your form design is costing you users.
4 fixes that make forms feel effortless:
Cut the visual noise. Put labels inside the fields and let them float up when the user types. Cleaner form, same context.
Make fields easy to tap. Floating labels free up space, so fields can be around 48px tall. Easy to hit with a thumb.
Sweat the small details. Rounded corners feel safer and friendlier, so people are more willing to fill the form in.
Don't leave animation for later. Smooth transitions help users move through the form faster.
