Description
An overload of functions of a product is called feature creep or overengineering. In many companies, innovation is often understood to mean adding more and more features and functions to existing products.
Remote controls are a good example of this. As a rule, the consumer does not even use half of the available functions, and we humans do not like this abundance of possibilities at all. Rather, we are drawn to simplification - we are happier with simplicity that works without problems.
