metrics that better categorize good and bad sites by quantifying the real-world user experience.
This is done by looking at three key metrics: loading performance, visual stability, and interactivity:

Largest contentful paint (LCP)::
Loading performance. LCP is the timestamp when the main content of a page has likely loaded.
To users, this is the _perceived_ loading speed of your site.
To provide a good user experience, Google recommends an LCP of fewer than 2.5 seconds.
footnote:[Source: https://web.dev/lcp/[web.dev]]

First input delay (FID)::
Load responsiveness. FID measures the time between a user's first interaction with a page, like a click,
and when the page can respond to those interactions.
To provide a good user experience, Google recommends a FID of less than 100 milliseconds.
footnote:[Source: https://web.dev/fid/[web.dev]]
Interaction to next paint (INP)::
Responsiveness to user interactions.
The INP value comes from measuring the latency of all click, tap, and keyboard interactions that happen throughout a single page visit and choosing the longest interaction observed.
To provide a good user experience, Google recommends an INP of fewer than 200 milliseconds.
footnote:[Source: https://web.dev/articles/inp[web.dev]]

[NOTE]
====
Previous {kib} versions included the metric https://web.dev/fid/[First input delay (FID)] in the User Experience app.
Starting with version 8.12, FID was replaced with _Interaction to next paint (INP)_.
The APM RUM agent started collecting INP data in version 5.16.0.
If you use an earlier version of the RUM agent with {kib} version 8.12 or later, it will _not_ capture INP data
and there will be _no data_ to show in the User Experience app:
[cols="1,1,1"]
|===
|
|*Kibana version ≥{nbsp}8.12*
|*Kibana version <{nbsp}8.12*
|*RUM agent version ≥{nbsp}5.16.0*
|INP data will be visible.
|FID data will be visible.
|*RUM agent version <{nbsp}5.16.0*
|The INP section will be empty.
|FID data will be visible.
|===
RUM agent version ≥{nbsp}5.16.0 will continue to collect FID metrics so, while FID metrics are not shown in the User Experience app in {kib} versions 8.12 and later, you can choose to visualize FID metrics in a {kibana-ref}/create-a-dashboard-of-panels-with-web-server-data.html[custom dashboard] or using {kibana-ref}/lens.html[Lens].
====

Cumulative layout shift (CLS)::
Visual stability. Is content moving around because of `async` resource loading or dynamic content additions?
