Your content or newsfeed is probably the place where your audience will spend most of the time in the app.
The engagement feed is also the home screen of the app and the first thing a user sees when opening the apps. We see that over 60% of the app traffic is being generated by this functionality.
We've made this feed contextual, meaning that all the different card types will have a different priority based on the momentum in time.
How to create a new card in your app?
STEP 1 = pick your 'card type'
Each card type has its own design, specific for a type of content.
Some of the cards (info and promo) can be restyled into whatever color pattern you prefer.
🔆 Info card
- a high priority before and during the event
- most versatile card of all mostly used to announce things like weather, sponsors activations, activities, general information, ...
