# A small menu. Big impact

I focused on a feature people use often. How the message menu looks, moves, and responds.

## I wanted the next action to feel clear

Several actions, little space. I wanted each choice to be clear and the menu to feel good every time

## I paid attention to the quiet details

Spacing, text, and icons should make actions easy to find

## I wanted the movement to feel natural

Opening, choosing, and closing should feel like one smooth movement, connected to the message

## The difficult states matter, too

Long messages, slow internet, or a lagging device. The menu should still be easy to use

## The complete experience

My focus is the complete experience. Opening the menu, finding an action, and returning to the conversation
