Pre-launch Dialogs

Engage, Inform, and Empower Users

- Convey essential information before launching applications.

- Control the dialog on future launches.

Unleash the power of personalized communication with our highly anticipated Pre-launch Dialogs feature.

But that's not all - administrators can control whether users are able to suppress the dialog on future launches or not.

“This feature would greatly benefit us.”

“Nice…to inform users about licence numbers etc. when they try to download applications.”

“This feature might be extended beyond the original EULA requirement. For instance, notification that an updated version of this application may also exist and offer the user the chance to run the newer version or continue to load this one. Alternatively, informing the user that the application is deprecated and scheduled for removal or warning that the application is large and may take a long time to load (to try and dissuade them from repeatedly pressing the button thinking it hasn't launched.”

User Portal Preferences

Express Your Individuality

- Allow your users to personalize their experience.

- Select your preferred theme.

- Choose the number of apps displayed.

- More intuitive home-screen for new users.

Customization meets convenience with User Portal Preferences. We believe in empowering our users to personalize their digital journey. From selecting their preferred theme to now being able to choose the number of apps displayed on the home-screen, the power is in their hands. New users will default to an all "Apps" collection, making their day one home-screen that little more intuitive, but from then on, the system will remember their preferred collection (Recent, Favorites etc) removing the number of clicks needed to navigate to their app of choice; saying goodbye to a one-size-fits-all approach. Embrace the freedom to make AppsAnywhere truly yours.
