French translation:interface homogène

Explanation:
Il ne s'agit pas simplement d'être conviviale pour l'interface (c'est le minimum syndical), mais de respecter un "charte" permettant à l'utilisateur de page en page, de site en site, de retrouver les mêmes repères. C'est de l'homogénéité, du respect de la charte graphique, que se dessine la convivialité. Pas l'inverse. Il y a eu par exemple un vrai débat chez la Pomme entre les utilisateurs paumés entre iTruc et iMachin. If you see what I mine de crayon :)))

conviviale et familière

Explanation:
J'ajouterais l'idée de «familière», car il est fait ici référence aux aspects usuels des interfaces les plus courantes et auxquelles la plupart des utilisateurs sont habitués (par exemple, le système Windows).

Martin Cassell: 'look & feel' could be expanded to e.g. 'présentation et ergonomie', but «interface» combines the two aspects quite well.

I had my doubts about my suggestion a while after I made it so I agree with the "Disagrees". Adrien's suggestion in that context makes a lot of sense.

présentation [et exploitation] normalisée[s]/uniformisée[s]

Explanation:
C'est-à-dire que les couleurs, la disposition, les termes, les fonctions sont semblables pour tous les sites, les logiciels, etc. L'utilisateur n'est donc pas dépaysé.
