DISTRIBUTION OF TIZEN-BASED WATCH APPS HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED

Toasts

Toasts display information and disappear automatically after two seconds. They’re useful when you want to show simple and short bites of information. For more important messages, use a pop-up that requires confirmation. Using a graphic toast can help users understand information more easily.

Usage

You can use toasts to show the result of noncritical actions and provide simple information on the app’s current status.

Behavior

• Automatic expiration

  Toasts do not require user confirmation. They automatically expire after a two-second timeout. Users can tap the screen to close a toast before it disappears automatically.

• No scrolling

  Toasts don’t allow scrolling. If you have long text that doesn’t fit on one screen, use a confirmation pop-up instead.

Types

• Graphic toasts

  A graphic toast displays an icon or an icon with short text. You can provide up to two lines of text below the icon. Keep this text as short and simple as possible; for example, Photo deleted, Message sent, or Update shared. You can use a common set of graphic toasts to minimize fragmentation or use your own customized icon to express your app’s identity.
