Top Web and App Design Trends to Follow in 2021



Digital transformation is the trend of 2021; the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic and the new normal. In 2020, as everything went on lockdown to curb the spread of the virus, the digitally forward businesses began to reinforce their infrastructure, and even the brick-and-mortar firms switched to digital platforms to be able to survive. In the past year, the number of businesses with websites and mobile apps has multiplied in and around Bahrain. This has also increased the demand for professional services that offer web design and mobile app development in Bahrain.

Web and App Design Trends of 2021

The role of professional app design and web design company in Bahrain is to create and develop visually appealing websites and mobile apps. It would help a business reach out to its target audience and turn those leads into purchases to generate profit. So the quality and creativity with which your app or website is developed is critical in attracting customers and generating profits.

On that note, here are the top mobile app and web design trends that professionals are following this year.

Intuitive Micro-Interactions

Micro-interactions are when there is direct consumer engagement with the app or website. For example, ecommerce websites and apps allow their consumers to create a wish-list of products they would like to buy later. Besides each product, there is a small bookmark symbol that allows the buyers to add the product to the wish list. The same happens on OTT and music streaming platforms where the user can create their watchlist and playlist. It helps create a personalized experience for the visitor while also benefiting the business. Animated elements as a means to provide feedback, visual call to action are great examples of micro-interactions.

Dark Theme

These days almost every website and app, has the dark theme option and it has received great reviews from the focus groups. Users prefer the dark mode over the light mode because it not only gives a very cool vibe to the platform but also improves the UI/UX (user interaction and user experience). Most professionals for web design in Bahrain are in favor of dark theme because:

  • It does not cause strain to the eyes, even after hours of use.
  • Highlights the design elements.
  • Extends the battery life of the device.
  • Better to use at night.

Return of Bold Typography

The bold typography has made a return into the world of app and web design this year. It gives the platform a very modern look. From the designer’s perspective, it helps things stand out, especially if there is a message that needs to be highlighted to catch the user’s eye.
