8:17The secret behind weirdly perfect UI designs
Save referenceCuriosity Gap
Three-dot menus are in almost every app, so a red circle round one under 'Stop using these.' reads like a correction on your own work. The title links it to weirdly perfect designs. What's wrong with the dots, and what replaces them?
'Weirdly perfect' names a feeling designers know, a UI that looks right without them knowing why, and 'secret' promises the reason is one thing they can learn.
The full stop makes the headline a flat instruction, and the red hand-drawn circle picks out an icon so small you'd never think it mattered.
When a big result depends on one tiny detail, zoom in on the real screen and circle that detail in red, like a correction. Let the title promise the big result so the small fix feels worth learning.
Circle the tiny detail, and promise the big result it unlocks.
Apply this pattern to your next video.
Bring the reference into a packaging brief, then decide what your title and thumbnail should each communicate.
