I am finishing my first IOS app, and would like to add some instructions, hints and help for users. Would like to show hint when users hover over a button, provide instructions for first time users, and help for users who appear stuck. Would appreciate a link to a comprehensive tutorial for doing this. Thanks.
Problem with iOS is that you have no hover capability as with MacOS.
I have no link to tutorial on this, but a few ideas to propose.
Usually, on the first view, user has to select some action (in general, tapping a button). You could flash this button after a few seconds if user has not tapped anything, to attract its attention.
with a short message, possibly spoken to avoid fastidious reading.
Thanks, Claude31!
You welcome. Tell us what you did, and then close the thread. Wish you good continuation.
For the initial screen, I added a hidden label, which I only display when the user opens the app for the first time, and the label has instructions telling the user how to proceed. I am also in the process of adding a help button on each page, which will segue to a page with detailed instructions.
