Making Your Product Tours Smarter Than Ever

Introducing Flow Sessions - the smart way to create persistent, cross-page user experiences

Making Your Product Tours Smarter Than Ever

Hey there! ๐Ÿ‘‹

Today, I'm thrilled to introduce Flow Sessions - a game-changing update that makes your tours and checklists remember where users left off.

What's New?#

Let me walk you through the exciting new features:

๐Ÿงฉ Flow Session Support#

Gone are the days of users losing their progress! Now, your tours and checklists remember exactly where users left off. Whether they close the page or come back later (even in a new tab), they'll pick up right where they left off. It's like having a bookmark for your user's journey.

๐ŸŒ Cross-Page Flows#

We've broken down the page barriers! You can now start a tour on one page and continue it on another. This is perfect for multi-step onboarding that spans across your entire application. No more awkward transitions or lost context between pages.

๐Ÿ•ต๏ธ Hidden Steps#

Want to make your flows smarter without cluttering the UI? Hidden steps are here to help! You can now trigger flows based on user actions without showing a visible step every time. It's like having an invisible guide that knows exactly when to step in.

๐Ÿงผ User Data Management#

We've made it easier than ever to manage user data. Need to delete a user? Reset their flow sessions? Or globally dismiss flows? We've got you covered. This is especially helpful for GDPR compliance and keeping your user data clean and organized.

The Technical Goodies#

For all you developers out there, here's what you need to know:

  • Flow sessions are automatically managed
  • Cross-page navigation is seamless
  • Hidden steps work with any user action
  • User data management is just an API call away

๐Ÿ“š New Documentation#

We've completely revamped our documentation to make getting started easier than ever. Plus, we've added video walkthroughs to help you visualize these new features in action. Check it out at docs.usertour.io.

I've been testing these features myself, and I have to say - they're pretty amazing. Whether you're creating a simple tour or a complex multi-page flow, these new features will make your user experiences more seamless and engaging.

Got questions? I'm here to help! Drop me a line anytime.

Happy building! ๐Ÿš€
