Description

“Ensure that each interactive UI element has:

  • A minimum focusable area or touch target size of 24dp/pt x 24dp/pt, OR
  • If the target size is less than the above, it should be adequately spaced, such that a circle with a diameter of 24dp/pt does not intersect with the circle of any other elements. “
