A dialog is a modal window that appears in front of an app to display task information that requires an immediate user response.
A dialog can be an alert, which requires user interaction. It can also be a selection or confirmation dialog, which requires a user to make or confirm a choice. The dialog retains focus until it’s dismissed or the required action is taken. Because dialogs are interruptive, they should be used sparingly.
Dialogs are related to toasts (both are members of the Dialog family of components), but they differ in purpose and priority, as shown below.
