DELAY PRESENTATION

You can select this option to delay the presentation of your Announcement by 'x' seconds after your app loads.

SHOW MORE THAN ONCE

Toggle this on and select the number of times you would like to present a campaign. Selecting it will cause the Announcement to appear multiple times. The slider changes the number of times the Announcement will be displayed (5 times maximum). You can also adjust the timing to be less than 24 hours between showings as needed. If a user clicks a "Take Me There"-style button, the announcement will no longer show. If a user clicks a Dismiss button or the X in the top right corner, the announcement will continue to show based on the time and frequency selected.

ADD REMIND ME BUTTON

Toggle this on to add a Remind Me button. This button will override the SHOW MORE THAN ONCE option and will display the Announcement again 24 hours later.

RESET IMPRESSIONS

This option would be best useful for presenting a tour once every 'x' days - indefinitely until you pause the campaign. Enabling this option could be very dangerous - Ex: if you have enabled this option to reset campaign impressions once every '2' days, this campaign would be presented to your end users once every 2 days (indefinitely until the campaign is paused), even if the user has already seen the campaign. One other important point to note is that - if you configure to reset impressions once every 'x' days, the campaign results for that campaign would also be removed after the 'x' day period–meaning, there won't be a historical list of results unless you export the campaign result data once every two days

EDIT AUDIENCE

This button saves your progress for this Announcement and takes you to the audience configuration page.
