What is Heatmaps?
Heatmaps are visual representations of user activity on a screen, showing where users click, move their cursor, or spend the most time looking. They reveal patterns such as ignored content or unexpected areas of interest that raw analytics numbers do not show as clearly. Designers use heatmaps to spot friction points on existing pages without needing to run a full study.
