Describes action sheets as choices related to an intentional action, with guidance to use them instead of alerts for multiple action-related choices.
Pattern Decisions This Source Supports
| Pattern | Supported decision | Required contract | Claim note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Action sheet | Choose action sheet when an intentional user action needs a small set of immediate choices related to the current object, draft, page, document, or selected item. | The sheet opens only after a user-initiated action, not as unsolicited promotion, onboarding, or error display. | Apple action-sheet guidance supports intentional-action choice sets and the distinction from alert-style interruption. |
