# We show as little as possible and as much as necessary.

![Reduziert](https://digital.sbb.ch/assets/images/principles/page/reduziert.webp "Reduziert")

Our solutions support our users in carrying out a certain task – and in doing this as simply and effectively as possible. Only the information and functions necessary for the working step are suggested. This helps prevent cognitive overload.

### Example

![Beispiel](https://digital.sbb.ch/assets/images/principles/page/reduziert-beispiel.webp "Beispiel")

We show the user only the necessary relevant information and avoid complex content. ​By consciously leaving out or hiding information at the first level, the operation/application is made simpler for users.​

For example, on the timetable for the connection, only the start point, destination and number of stops are shown initially.
