Design for Human Memory | Chapter 3: Knowledge in the Head vs. the World | Soumya #design #uiux

🔍 Why do users forget how to use an app after just one visit? Why do some interfaces feel effortless while others feel frustrating?

Welcome to Episode 3 of my The Design of Everyday Things series! In this episode, we dive into Chapter 3: Knowledge in the Head & in the World—a critical concept in UX design that determines whether users can easily navigate your product or feel lost every time they return.

✅ What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
• The difference between internal (memory-based) & external (UI-based) knowledge
• Why reducing cognitive load leads to better user experiences
• How signifiers, constraints, and mappings help users remember actions
• Why users rely on the interface more than their memory
• How to design helpful, intuitive, and frustration-free UI

If you want to design apps that users can navigate effortlessly, this episode is packed with actionable UX insights you don’t want to miss!
