# Launcher as a Visibility Rule

Note:

If you see the following UI, you have the New Visibility Rules enabled for the account. For more information, see [Understand New Visibility Rules](https://support.whatfix.com/docs/understand-visibility-rules-20). ![Visibility Rules 2.0 screenshot](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/vr2_main%20page.png)

## Introduction

Launcher as a Visibility Rule enables you to limit content access to only those who trigger the content from a Launcher. For example, set the Visibility Rule for a Pop-up as Launcher and the only way to trigger the Pop-up is to click the associated Launcher.

> [!WARNING]
> Note
> 
> - Ensure you use a Launcher as a Visibility Rule only for Pop-ups and Surveys.
> - Once you create a Launcher, ensure that you add Launcher as a Visibility rule in the content that is attached to the Launcher to trigger it via a Launcher only.
> - If you don't add the Launcher Visibility Rule in the Pop-up or Survey, the Pop-up or Survey appears when the user opens the page on which the it has been created, and the Pop-up or Survey is also shown when the user clicks the Launcher.

## Use Case

When you have created a Survey to collect feedback from your users about their experience with the application, you may not want to interrupt their work flow. You would want to let your users take the Survey at their convenience. To achieve this, use the Launcher as a Visibility Rule in the Survey. This ensures your users take the Survey only when they click the Launcher button.
