  app?

• Discussion Question Error Messages
• The comic book store is concerned with what
  happens if something in the app doesn't work.
  Well-designed error messages in apps can help
  users get through confusing moments, reduce user
  anxiety, keep users in task funnels, and increase
  users' chances of successfully completing a form.
  Confusing error messages can prevent users from
  successfully completing a task.
