A sound can confirm an action, signal a change or bring an important event to someone's attention. It can also become a familiar part of a product's identity.
Good UX sound starts with a decision: where does hearing add value? We consider the user, the task and the environment before shaping the sound. Each element has a defined purpose and a place within the wider experience.
01
Give actions and states a consistent acoustic meaning. Help users distinguish a completed task from a new message or a situation that needs attention.
02
Translate your brand into the sounds people encounter while using your product. Build familiarity through a shared sound language across devices and interfaces.
03
Match the presence of a sound to its importance. Consider repetition, competing sounds and the user's ability to control the experience.
04
Plan sound alongside visual information, text, haptics and assistive technologies. Consider how different users receive the same message.
