Toast

When to show a toast, how to write toast titles, when to preserve a toast, and which tone to use for each situation.

Use to provide general status messages that aren’t critical and require no action. For example, you might show a toast message to inform the user that their recent action was successful.

Usage

Toasts are a good way to communicate out-of-flow messages.

Hook

The toast title should be short and affirmative.

Preserve

Reserve the "preserve" behaviour for toasts that the user must see and acknowledge, like a server error or lost connection.

Tone

Toasts are available in four tones:

  • Use the informative (default) tone for general notifications.
  • The positive tone should be used to convey a successful action.
  • Use the warning tone to warn the user about some future event or action.
  • Reserve the critical tone for errors not caused by the user, like a connection issue.
