Hi friend,

Dreamed of being able to change your guides’ placement within your screens or update the text within many different guides?

What are the use cases?

1. Rebuild the structure of any narrative with multiple guides.

2. Update the text within multiple guides.

3. Re-assign guides to different screens than the one it was originally attached to.

Hi friend,

Say goodbye to not being able to personalize your guide steps when creating a demo from a template!

Now, you will be able to customize guide steps using text variables.

How can you use this feature?

1. Creators can allow Presenters to use text variables to personalize guides.

2. You can personalize the avatar image for each individual seller or prospect.

Hi friend,

Introducing our new Insert Screen Templates feature!

This feature lets you add a screen from a set of templates. All so you can demo any native mobile app, native desktop app, or image-based prototype.

How can you use this feature?

1. Showcase a multi-device experience in one demo— You can now demo your web app, and then showcase how the flow ends or continues in a mobile app.

2. Showcase a desktop native app— You can also take screenshots from your desktop app, and then use them as the screens for your demo.

FYI: You can’t change the image containers without custom HTML work. So, for the best fit, use the images that have the recommended dimensions for the particular template you’re working with.

Hi Friend,

As an admin, you can now apply your chosen brand style settings to any demo or template used throughout the company.

To do this, all you have to do is click the new toggle in the ‘Brand Style’ tab.

Hi friend,

Now, you can highlight a particular area on the screen and use a Custom Element. All to give you more flexibility when it comes to linking screens or incorporating guides.

How can you use this feature?

1. You can link multiple screens to a large image to tell a unique story.

2. You can also personalize your templates that only have flat images.

FYI

You can only use Custom Elements when the ‘Display Options’ are set to ‘Proportional Fit’ or ‘Fixed Width’. If you switch back to ‘Dynamic Screen Size’, the Custom Elements won’t be deleted, but you won’t be able to see them on the screen. You’ll be able to see the elements again once you change the display.

Hi Friend,

We’ve made some improvements to our insights page so that you can better track and gather meaningful data on your demos' engagement.

You may see some changes in your demo’s data, but don’t worry, now it’s even more accurate than before.

What’s been improved:

• Bounce rate - Previously, the bounce rate was calculated by movement between screens. Now, it is calculated by interactions with the demo, even if all the interactions are on the same screen.
• Session duration - We now measure from the first interaction that occurred such as the first screen or guide view until the last interaction that was identified.
