Carousels are a widely used, intuitive, and effective pattern for mobile applications. Now you can create carousel guides and use them to onboard new users, introduce new features and capabilities, or for any other purpose.
Carousels can be styled in the Visual Design Studio to match your brand and design needs.
Create a carousel guide
1. Go to Guides and select Create Guide.
2. Select the mobile application. The Carousel layout then appears in the Existing layouts section on the Create Guide page.
After you select the carousel layout, a 3-step full-screen guide is created.
3. Select Edit in my app where you can edit each step. All Pendo building blocks are compatible.
4. To add additional steps, duplicate an existing step, or add a step from the layout.
5. To test your guide, select Test.
Carousel tips
- Carousels are full-screen guides. You can't add non-fullscreen steps or tooltips to a Carousel.
- Users can move between steps using swipe gestures. You can also include buttons with 'advance step' options.
- Gestures like “Swipe left” and “Swipe right” are tracked like all other guide analytics, and are displayed under “Guide activity” events in the “Guide Metrics” tab.
