Plunk is a fun and easy way to test clicks on a mobile phone or desktop. Made by ZURB. Plunk lets you easily put together fun tests for touch screen targets on mobile devices. See where users are tapping on your mobile pages, then measure the success of your design or see if it's littered with bad apples. (Those can spoil the bunch, you know!) Why? Wanna find out where your mobile users’ fingers land on your content? Or are they even plunking down on the right spot? Sometimes users feel like their bobbing for apples trying to click through a mobile site. That's why functionality, from a navigation standpoint, is crucial for touch-screen users. Plunk is the fastest way to find out if your designs work within a mobile setting. Create click tests that give immediate feedback and efficiently visualize where mobile users respond. And with a 48-hour time limit, you can get rid of any rotten ideas quickly. How Do You Like Them Apples? Plunk incorporates the Click and Yes/No tests from Verify (http://www.verifyapp.com) and returns some sweet data. The results features are pretty juicy, as well. Sink your teeth into test feedback with options like: 1. Grayscale Toggle. Allows you to see those bright red plunks easily with a grayed-out version of your website. Or toggle back to see where the same clicks happened with the site’s actual coloring. 2. Thumbnail Scroll. A new feature that allows you to scroll through thumbnail images. 3. Desktop vs. Mobile View. Take a gander from either device perspective. Ta-da! Why is Mobile Important? Mobile is well on its way to becoming the global leader for internet and web traffic. Studies shows that touch screen interaction is on the rise. And it’s not stopping. Responsive design is obviously a key factor, but if you’re not in tune with the people using what you’ve created, you could be wasting time and money.
