I have a list of 20 items on a website. There are 4 buttons which work as filters. Each items in the list is represented by a picture and a title:

Each block is clickable to a description page :

What is the most usable way for mobile device :

  • display a scrollable list of 20 items

  • split this list in 2 pages in order to display a shorter scrollable list of only 10 items.

For information, on desktop : I plan to display the list with 2 columns and so only 1 page.

I'd say split the pages across multiple pages of 10 items per page.

Long lists are easier to get lost in. Does it take a lot longer to load? (Maybe someone with more technical knowledge can fill us in on that). It is also a common way to go, so this navigation pattern is something users recognise and are already used to.

Maybe it's an idea to set 10 items a page as a default but give users the option and control to change depending on their needs. See image below.

The 'Chrome' in this screen is getting a bit large by adding yet another filter option, so maybe the filter list must be able to show and hide. See below.

  • I like the way to show and hide the filter options. I will study that.
