The cheapest and quickest thing we have done to date to improve our user's experience?

Microcopy.
Microcopy are small bits of copy that help users figure out how to do stuff.
We use them primarily to reassure users and reduce uncertainty.

Things like:

  • How long it takes to complete an action
  • Addressing objections users might have
  • Letting them know that choices they make can be changed
From user interviews and watching recordings of our users they often proactively tell us how they like these little reassurances.

Do you use microcopy in a neat way in your product?
