What is INP by session pageviews

INP by session pageviews shows the Interaction to Next Paint (INP) segmented by how many pages a user visited during their session — from single-page visits to deep, multi-page journeys.

This lens helps you understand if interaction responsiveness holds up as users explore more of your site, or if performance degrades as session depth increases.

It’s also a great indicator of whether sluggish responsiveness contributes to early exits or if your experience rewards loyal users with snappier input handling.



Healthy INP by session pageviews sample


Should you worry

A healthy INP by session pageviews lens typically shows:

  • Lower INP values as session depth increases

  • Snappy interactions even for 1-page sessions

  • The smoothest experience for users with 4+ pageviews

This suggests that your site scales input responsiveness as users navigate — a clear win for perceived quality and frontend stability.

Unhealthy INP by session pageviews sample

When INP remains high across the board — or gets worse as users continue browsing — it may indicate:

  • Interaction bottlenecks on entry pages, which discourage further exploration

  • Compounded delay across client-side routed pages (scripts piling up or memory issues)

  • No progressive enhancement or input prioritization in place

In these cases, interaction delay becomes a silent churn factor — especially for mobile users or returning visitors.

Resolving unhealthy INP by session pageviews

Go-to action plan to resolve an unhealthy INP by session pageviews:

  1. Ask Uxi to analyze your INP by session pageviews values and suggest improvements.

  2. Use Filters to isolate 1-page and short sessions, and compare INP to deeper sessions.

  3. Simulate INP of the suspected lens to see if fixing it will resolve the INP by session pageviews. If yes, this is where the resolution focus should be.

  4. Use an automated INP optimization tool like INProve to improve your INP by session pageviews values.

  5. Once you’ve improved INP, set an alert to be the first to know if it starts worsening again.
