# How do I target elements when creating in-app experiences?

Before you can create in-app experiences, you first need to target an element on which you want to display your content. For example, you can target a button on which you want to show a tooltip.

An element is automatically targeted when you first identify any unique UI element on the screen.

### Add Identifiers to UI elements

Use the following steps to add identifiers to elements on your screen:

Ensure that you [create the project](/mobile/docs/create-a-project-1) and [capture the screen](/mobile/docs/capture-your-app-screen-using-new-screen-capture-experience) before identifying the element.

1. Click **Add Identifier** to identify the unique elements on the screen to tag the right screen.

2. Click the desired element on the page.

- Your in-app experience will show on the selected element.
- If you want to change the selected element and show the in-app experience on some other element, click **Re-Anchor Target**. This enables you to identify and select another element.
