Page responsiveness is in the "needs improvement" range

INP (Interaction to Next Paint) measures how quickly your page visually responds after a visitor clicks a button, taps a link, or types in a field. Google's target is under 200 milliseconds; scores between 200 and 500 milliseconds are classified as needing improvement. A sluggish response to clicks and taps makes a site feel broken or unreliable, even if it loaded quickly. Google includes INP in its Core Web Vitals, so poor scores can affect your search rankings. The most common causes are heavy JavaScript running on the main thread. Audit your JavaScript bundle for large or blocking scripts, defer non-critical code, and consider breaking up long tasks into smaller chunks.
