Let’s be honest: Some apps and services are absolutely worth paying for—but sooner or later, we all reach our limit.

At a certain point, you’re bound to stumble onto something worthwhile and say to yourself, “Meh, enough’s enough.”

When that happens, remember today’s

Despite all the transformations we’re seeing, one thing we know for sure: Design (the craft, the discipline, the science) is not going anywhere. While Design only became a more official profession in the 19th century, the study of how craft can be applied to improve business dates back to the early 1800s. Since then, only one thing has remained constant: how Design is done is completely different decade after decade.... https://webdesignernews.com/designs-purpose-remains-constant/

When design and development harmonize, they create intuitive, efficient, and visually compelling interfaces that enhance usability and engagement. However, bridging the gap between these two disciplines requires collaboration, communication, and a shared focus on the end user. So, in this article, we’re going to discuss how you can build seamless user experiences by aligning design and development. https://webdesignernews.com/between-design-and-development/

This flashy yet power-saving mode is now considered a norm; it has become prevalent with the settings of operating systems up to single applications. The current blog discusses the basics of the dark mode, how to implement it optimally, and what... https://webdesignernews.com/dark-mode-design-best-practices-

The switch has flipped on the US TikTok ban. TikTok's app stoped working and was removed from the App Store and Google Play on Saturday night, just hours before the January 19 ban was expected to take effect.

People who have previously installed the app are instead greeted with a pop-up. "Sorry, TikTok isn't available right now," it says. "A law banning TikTok has been enacted in the U.S. Unfortunately, that means you can't use TikTok for now. We are fortunate that president Trump has
