Falk, Kotecha, and Yacoub had collaboratively helmed One Direction's previous hits, "What Makes You Beautiful" and "One Thing". The track is an uptempo, upbeat bubblegum pop song which features rock undertones, vocal harmonies, hand claps, prominent electric guitar riffs, and repetitive synthesizers. The chorus of the song is predominantly featured alongside the bridge, and is backed by wordless chants.

"Little Things" is a mid-tempo pop and folk ballad about the insistence that flaws are what make a person unique. The track received mixed reviews from contemporary music critics, many of whom felt that the song is not tailored to them.
