Are you making a user look at the loading animation in your application?
Yes, it sucks.
Some apps have a loading icon which has some values like a percentage (%) or size (1.5mb) which is a something meaning full, even though it won’t be completed at the time, but the user has some hope
On the other hand, some apps have some loading icons like this
All these sucks.
An application with a good UX won’t have a loading icon.
then,
What can we do? How to solve this?
“SKELETON WIRE FRAME”
What is skeleton wireframe screens?
It is a screen where we have a structure of the application, this skeleton will have all the elements in the exact place, where the data has to be loaded, like this
Then, As the app requests for the data from the backend, it fills all the fields one by one like this,
“Give the taste of the page to the user as soon as they land on the app”
thus we have to give a taste of the page to the user instead of showing the loading icon.
Do some great UX.
