What if I tell you that, subconsciously, rounded corners have an effect on the human psyche?

Should we swap sharp-cornered buttons with rounded buttons?

Do rounded buttons perform better usability?

These are the questions you may run into when you dive into the UX behind rounded buttons in apps.

There is no right or wrong between applying a rounded look or a sharp-cornered appearance on buttons. A button’s corner radius should enable, encourage, and empower users to interact with the app, and reduce distractions by all means.

In essence, no tapping means no win.
