Should I use modal or new page?
Modals are a good fit if your users often switch between products and the interactions are limited. New page is a good fit if the interactions are various and somewhat complex, but you do not ease switching to other projects.
When should you use modal UX?
A UX modal window is a type of dialog box that pops up when you click or tap something on your current screen. They're also known as “popup windows”, “modal windows” or “modal popups”. UX modals are often used to notify and inform users or ask them certain questions about their preferences.
When not to use modals?
5. Do not use modal dialogs for nonessential information that is not related to the current user flow. As discussed above, modal dialogs have numerous disadvantages and costs to users. In order for these costs to be justified, their relevance to the task and importance should be high.
Are modals good web design?
Modals are disruptive by design. They tend to appear unexpectedly in the flow of the browsing experience, and always shift focus away from their parent window. This is a high cost for the user, so modals should always assist the user in their goals, not obstruct them.
