tactile feedback

Tactile feedback is the sensation of touch or physical response that devices provide to let you know they are working or to enhance interaction. For example, when you tap a smartphone screen and feel a slight vibration, that’s tactile feedback signaling your input was registered. It helps users feel more connected to digital actions without needing to look, improving usability and precision. This sensation is generated by small motors or other components inside devices that produce vibrations or similar signals, creating a physical cue that complements visual or auditory information for a more intuitive experience.
