Micro-interactions are where products express personality. Every micro-interaction has four components: a trigger, rules, feedback, and loops and modes.
Examples That Work
The like animation on social platforms. The satisfying haptic feedback when you toggle a switch on iOS. The pull-to-refresh animation that feels physical. The way Gmail shakes a form when login fails. These moments are not decorative ÔÇö they confirm actions, reduce errors, and make the digital feel tangible.
The best micro-interactions are invisible ÔÇö users feel them without consciously noticing them. When they are gone, something feels missing.
