How do I optimize a demo of a Mobile App for viewing on Mobile Devices?

Please visit this section of mobile viewing for information on presenting a demo of a Web App on a Mobile Device, which is a different scenario.To try the example below, visit this demo of the Famly Mobile App on a mobile device. If you do not have a mobile device handy, installing a mobile simulator like this may help quickly preview demos from a desktop.
- If you are creating a demo of a Mobile Website rather than a Mobile App, here is a tutorial for taking scrollable screenshots of a Mobile Website. GoFullPage is a helpful browser extension for this.
- Use Tooltips rather than Modals to create an engaging experience
- Add a heavy backdrop to steps that include a Tooltip. This helps highlight important elements, even on a smaller mobile screen
- Add Beacons when necessary to show users where to click
- Include Navigation buttons to help users easily progress thorugh the demo

Can the embedded demo automatically show the visitor’s preferred language based on location or browser settings?
Yes, as long as you are using the Languages feature, you can manually configure the embedded demo to reflect the correct language by passing a query string to the iframe embed or demo share link following these steps.For example, many websites allow visitors to select their preferred language, then append a query parameter like ?lang=en to the URL of subsequent pages to maintain that language preference. To ensure the demo reflects the correct language, you should pass the same query parameter to the demo embed or share link—and ensure it matches the language codes supported by Navattic.

Do demos with or without Forms see more user engagement?
Do demos with or without Forms see more user engagement?
Form-gated demos may see a higher % of conversion events, as viewers who complete a Form are
oftentimes higher-intent. However, we have found ungated demos had about on average 12% higher
completion and 5% higher engagement rates.
Why are there a lot of Step 1 views?
Why are there a lot of Step 1 views?
If your demo is embedded as an iFrame on a high-traffic landing page and does not include a
third-party form, each website visitor is “loading” the first step of your demo. In this case,
Step 1 views represent each time your webpage has been loaded and may include users who do not
click into your demo; for ungated embedded demos, Step 2 views would provide a better
representation for how many users have interacted with each Demo.
Why are there more Views for later steps?
Why are there more Views for later steps?
Within the Product Demo page, each step view represents a time that page has been loaded. If a
user refreshes a particular step of your demo, this will count this as two views. If present, this
discrepancy is usually small.
