Step 2: Capture your Mobile app screens

You can capture screens as a one-time step using the Whatfix Creator widget. This widget enables you to capture app screens as screenshots and saves them to your Whatfix Mobile Dashboard to create in-app guidance content. It also enables you to preview your projects and test them before publishing.

For more information on how to capture and add app screens, see Capture Mobile app screens.

Use the following steps to add a screen,

  1. On the Identify Screen window, click + Add screen.

Step 3: Identify the screen

After capturing the screen, you need to identify the unique elements on the screen and tag the screen so that the in-app experience you create appears on the right page.

  1. To identify the unique elements on the screen and to tag the right screen, click Add Identifier
    add_identifier

  2. Click the desired element on the page.
    identifier_home

Example: If you want to show the Feedback survey on the Home screen, you can choose the title Home, which can uniquely identify the screen and show the survey on the correct screen.
