These are the instructions for setting up your mobile app's Splash Page. The Splash Page is the first image that is seen when your app is opened by your listeners/members

Info
titleThis Article Is For:
  • Users who have been given permission to manage Mobile App Settings


Info
titleRequirements:
  • Station/brand have already purchased the SoCast Mobile App package
  • Have been given the above listed permissions by your SoCast Account Manager.


Tip
titleFeatures:
  • Splash Pages appear instantly when the app is opened
  • Can be changed often
  • Guarantees that the listener will see it.
  • Splash ads work best in conjunction with other sponsored content such as: contests, events, shows, special guests etc


Note
titleTips:
  • We recommend setting your Splash Page for around 6 seconds, and no longer than 10 seconds. Otherwise your users will assume the app is not loading and abandon it.
  • Make sure your Splash Page is updated frequently
  • The Splash Page doesn't last very long. So no need to put long text on it. Your users won't have the time to read it.

  • Anticipate how it will look on devices. It displays in portrait view on devices, so it should not be designed horizontally.

  • Make sure to use an image that is easy to understand and easy to read
  • Can be used to sell sponsorships of entire app
  • Can be sold by duration (ex. one month)
  • Due to growing fragmentation in device screen resolutions and aspect ratios so there is currently no single dimension that will work for all or most devices.
