# Create a copy of a Launcher

Whatfix enables you to create a copy of a Launcher and modify it. If you want to use the same Launcher with minor modifications or display it to different users, create a copy and make it live for your end users. This helps you reuse the existing Launcher and eliminates the need to recreate it from scratch. You have the copy option across **Draft**, **Ready**, and **Production** stages of your content.

Note:

A copy of a Launcher can be created in both the Widget and Content sections on the Dashboard.

- The Content section copy enables you to modify and customize the Launcher.
- The Widget section copy enables you to edit visibility rules and incorporate Launchers into a collection.

Expand the following accordions for more details:
