IN APP ANNOUNCEMENTS & STORIES

Banners, Modals & Stories for Every Kind of Update

Emails go unread. Push notifications get dismissed. But in-app messages get seen. FAB Page Pilot lets you reach users directly inside your product with banners, modals, and Stories—so every update gets noticed at the right moment.

Banners for the Things Everyone Needs to Know

Top of screen or bottom of screen banners work well for feature launches, maintenance windows, important reminders, or anything time sensitive. They keep the message visible without taking users away from what they are doing, making them useful when you want everyone to notice an update without interrupting their workflow.

Modals & Slideouts for the Bigger Stuff

When a banner's one line isn't enough, switch to a modal or slideout. You get more room for a screenshot, a short explainer, supporting details, and a CTA that sends users straight to the new feature. This gives you a better way to explain changes that need a little more context without relying on a separate email or help article.

Stories for Updates Users Actually Stop to Look At

For updates worth more than a one liner, Stories turn feature news into short, visual, easy to consume content built to get noticed, not skipped. You can use them when a new feature or product update deserves more attention than a simple banner can provide. The format gives users a quick way to understand what has changed while keeping the announcement inside the product.

Show It Only to the Users It's Relevant To

Whichever format you use, target it by user segment or role so a feature update for admins doesn't clutter the screen for every free tier user. Show the right announcement to the people it actually matters to, instead of putting the same message in front of everyone. This keeps in app communication more relevant and helps users see updates that make sense for their role or plan.

Stop hoping users read the email. Tell them inside the product.

FAQs

What's the difference between a banner, a modal, and a Story?

Banners are a quick, non blocking message at the top or bottom of the screen. Modals and slideouts give you more room for detail, screenshots, and a CTA. Stories are a visual, narrative style format built for updates that deserve more attention. Each format gives you a different way to communicate depending on how much information users need.

Can I target announcements to specific user segments?

Yes. Banners, modals, and Stories can all be shown only to the segment or role they're relevant to. This helps you keep announcements focused so users see messages that are actually useful to them.

Do I need developer help to launch an announcement?

No. All formats are built and published without code, so your team can create and launch announcements without waiting for a developer to add each update.

Can these be used for things other than new features?

Yes. Maintenance notices, downtime alerts, feature discovery, feature launches, and general product updates can all be delivered through the same formats. You can choose the format based on how much attention or information the update needs.
