How long should a text field be?
Text fields hold up to 255 characters in a single line.
What is text field in UI?
A text field is a rectangular area in which people enter or edit small, specific pieces of text.
How tall should input fields be?
A rule of thumb is 45–57px for a touch target, but for mobile that often result in fields which look obnoxiously large. Sizing input fields between 32px and 40px in height makes your field finger-friendly and not very large at the same time.
What size should form fields be?
For form fields with a variable input (name or email) length but within a standard average, you should find a suitable width based on the average length of possible inputs. Studies show that those input fields typically range from 18 to 33 characters.
