been looking at some recent heatmaps and the click accuracy is just pathetic. people's thumbs are too big for these tiny little icon buttons we keep making in figma. let's try a quick experiment this week where we strictly enforce a 48px minimum target for every interactive element, even if it looks slightly ~~unprofessional~~ chunky.

my boss is going to hate the extra whitespace
has anyone actually measured their tap accuracy on desktop emulators lately?

figma is basically just a glorified drawing tool that makes everything look way cleaner than it actually functions. which heatmap provider are you using to track this?

calling it a drawing tool is a bit much since we use the prototype features to test user flows before anything hits dev. i've been using Hotjar for my last two projects and the data is pretty clear on those missed taps.
