How to edit screens and side menus

Your app consists of screens, that are accessed through the navigation. You can expand your app by creating side menus, new navigation points and screens.

Here we’ll explore three common ways to edit expand your app and edit the screens:

1. Set up your side navigation

2. Edit your sub screen

3. Add a top right button to the main screen

 

1. Set up your side navigation

Setting up your side menu is very simple. Navigate to the “Main screen” section of your app, and roll out the “Side navigation” portion on the right hand menu. Here you can edit what is shown to the user in the side navigation of the app.

 

2. Edit your sub screen

The sub screens are shown along with articles. They have less elements than the main screen, and only feature one or two ways to navigate.

For example, in Choicely’s app that's in the picture, the sub screen only features a Choicely logo in the “toolbar” section at the top. The article fills the large white area below the logo.

The live app also features a back button on the top left corner, and a sharing icon on the top right corner, although they’re not visible here.

 

3. Add a top right button to the main screen

You can feature a button on top right of the main screen. This spot is typically saved for ecommerce stores, merchandise or ticketing, but you can use the button however you like. Go to the “main screen” section of your app, and navigate to “Screen settings” on the right. Activate “Top right button” from the toggle, and you can edit the button settings and the link.

 

There you go!

Now you can edit and expand your app with new screens and navigations.
