An in-app experience or a project is an in-app interactive solution that can provide contextual training, help, and on-screen guidance for your end users to increase activation, adoption, and engagement. Select any one of the following project types based on your use case:

- In-app help
- Feedback & Survey

Each project contains Whatfix Mobile elements like Walkthrough, Tooltip, Highlight, Pop-up, Bottom Sheet, and more based on the project type you select.
Use the following steps to create a project:

Step 1: Create a project

To create a new project, click New.

Ensure that you add the correct app version from the app build that was integrated with the Whatfix Mobile SDK. Often developers use the dev/staging build to integrate any third-party SDK.
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,
-
On the Identify Screen window, click + Add screen.
-
Select the screen where you want to create the content and 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.
-
To identify the unique elements on the screen and to tag the right screen, click Add Identifier
-
Click the desired element on the page.
Example: If you want to show a Tooltip on the Home screen, choose the title Home, which can uniquely identify the screen and show the Tooltip on the correct screen.
