Snackbars inform users when a backend action is done.\
They pop up briefly at the bottom of the screen, explaining the outcome without being too intrusive.

### When to use ?

Use snackbars to quickly share results, whether good or bad. \
\&#xNAN;*For example: 'Item added' or 'Item deleted'*

Snackbar should not be used to display critical information; use [alerts](/design/components/feedback/alerts.md) instead.\
\&#xNAN;*For example: 'You cannot perform this action because your profile has not been verified'*

## Design guidelines

Snackbars can only have one [button](/design/components/actions/buttons.md).

{% hint style="info" %}
**Prototyping a Snackbar on Figma for designers**<br>

* Trigger : onClick **OR** onDelay - 50ms
* Animation type : Custom Spring
* Duration: 300ms
  {% endhint %}

**Keep it short**

Snackbars are visible for 5 seconds, users won’t have time to read a long sentence. If you need more than one sentence consider using another component.

**Use simple words**

Use everyday language and generic terms as much as possible, it’ll be easier to reuse.

**Capitalize the first word, no period**

{% hint style="info" %}
**Template**: Object + verb+ED
{% endhint %}
