Best practices

  • Keep it to a small set of the most important, high-level actions.
  • Maintain a consistent position and content pattern across screens.
  • Give icon-only actions accessible labels.
  • Consider how the bar adapts on small screens — collapse actions into a menu when space is tight.

Do’s and don’ts

Do

Surface a few top-level actions and the current context.

Don’t

Crowd the app bar with every possible action on the screen.
