What is progress bar in UI?
A progress bar is a visual status representation of how a user is progressing in your SaaS. They're primarily used to help orient your users to where they are in a particular journey: they help set expectations, provide instant feedback, and reduce user friction.
When can we design transient feedback to show the users the progression in steppers?
Progress trackers may display a transient feedback message after a step is saved. This feedback should only be used if there is a long latency between steps. This progress indicator displays a transient feedback message after a step is saved.
Why use progress bars?
The goal of including a progress bar is to help keep completion rates high as respondents move from page to page. As the thinking goes, people who are reassured that they're making progress will stay motivated to keep clicking through to complete the survey.
