OneSignal’s in-app messaging feature is a great tool to deliver important messages to your clients. It offers an additional level of engagement when users have your app open.
Using in-app messaging, you can encourage new users to start using your service, drive conversions with personalized offers, educate users, implement surveys to collect user feedback, request app store ratings, request referrals, and much more.
Here is how you can set them up:
Open OneSignal’s dashboard and click on New Message and then New In-App:
Name your message and choose either Block Editor or HTML Editor depending on how you want to design your message.
In this example we will use Block Editor.
Design your message. There are several options from which you can choose - you can add text, images and buttons with click ability, meaning that users can be redirected to the provided URL.
When you have designed your message, scroll down to the Triggers section. Choose “When certain conditions are satisfied during the session” and click on Add Trigger. Choose In-app Trigger.
In Key’s field, type screen. As for Value, enter the name of the screen where you wish this message to be displayed. All available screen names are provided at the bottom of this article. You can choose any of them.
For this example we will use profile.Set other settings according to your preferences. For example, whether you want this message to be shown to every user just once or every time they enter the Profile screen. Or only show this message for a specific time:
When you are done, either save it as Draft or choose Make Message Live to publish it instantly.
In this example we will make a message live.
If you open your application and go to Profile Screen via left menu, your message will be shown.
NB! Please note that if the customer's phone uses VPN and/or AdBlock, the OneSignal in-app messages will not work!
