Splash carousel

Intro slides shown before a tour — a centred modal on the web, full screen in apps.

Plan
Splash carousels are included on the More and Too Many plans. On other plans the carousel tab shows an upgrade prompt.

A splash carousel is a short set of intro slides shown before the tour when someone lands on the page — usually limited to their first visit with Max shows. Turn it on with Enable splash carousel on the Step 2: Splash Carousel tab.

Slides

Each slide can have any of:

  • Logo — a small image above the title (toggle with Show logo).
  • Image — a large square image (toggle with Show image).
  • Title and description.

Click the dashed boxes on the slide preview to upload images. Drag slides by their handle to reorder. If you hide both logo and image, the text is centred.

Size500 KB per image (squoosh.app is great for compressing)

Uploads go into your Media library (25 images on More, 50 on Too Many), so you can reuse them across slides and tours.

If you move to a lower plan

Carousels are kept but stop showing. Tours that have steps carry on without their carousel; tours that are only a carousel stop showing until you upgrade again.

How it behaves

  • Web: a centred modal over the page. Width and colours are set in Styles → Splash Carousel.
  • Apps: full screen.
  • When the carousel finishes or is dismissed, the tour continues with its normal launch behaviour.
  • Max shows sets how many times one visitor sees the carousel (empty = no limit — it shows on every page load). It’s separate from the tour’s own limit.
  • It won’t show to visitors who clicked “Don’t show again” on the welcome card.

Carousel analytics

Carousels report carousel_shown, carousel_slide_viewed, carousel_completed and carousel_dismissed. The carousel funnel shows how far people get.
