Title

Clear, simple text explaining the action of the modal

Ensure your icon is recognisable in all possible sizes it's displayed at, and whether the detail needs to be simplified at a smaller size

If your button has generic copy such as 'Okay' or 'Cancel', include a label above it describing the event or purpose of the button

Close action

A way to exit the modal

On mobile, adapt the modal to full screen to gain more space
