Pop-Up & Mini Notifications
The default manner of launching a growth hack has been covered in the Integration Steps. But AppVirality lets you extend the user experience based growth hacking, to Mini & Pop-up Notifications.
These can be used effectively, in situations like: immediately after a successful transaction, etc.
The intent to share, in such instances, is most likely highest from a user experience standpoint.
Lets take each of them one by one: Pop-up & Mini
You may launch the growth hack from popup dialog. You can configure the popup dialog message and style from the AppVirality dashboard.
You need not update your app every time you make the modifications to the same
You can control the visibility of this Popup from dashboard, by setting launch conditions like:
- After how many app launches you want to show the popup
- After how many days of first install you want to show the popup
- How many times can a user see such a popup
… etc.
Mind you, these are in app notifications – not your regular push notifications. Use the below code to show a popup for launching growth hack
import com.appvirality.AppVirality;
import com.appvirality.CampaignDetail;
import com.appvirality.Constants;
import com.appvirality.appviralityui.custom.CustomPopUp;
...
AppVirality appVirality = AppVirality.getInstance(this);
CustomPopUp customPopUp = new CustomPopUp(this);
appVirality.getCampaigns(Constants.GrowthHackType.Word_of_Mouth, new AppVirality.CampaignDetailsListener() {
@Override
public void onGetCampaignDetails(ArrayList<CampaignDetail> campaignDetails, boolean refreshImages, String errorMsg) {
if(campaignDetails.size() > 0) {
CampaignDetail womCampaignDetail = campaignDetails.get(0);
if (womCampaignDetail != null) {
if (refreshImages) {
/**
* Download and save WOM campaign images.
* if you are using the AppViralityUI dependency
*/
new com.appvirality.appviralityui.Utils(getApplicationContext()).refreshImages(womCampaignDetail);
//If not using the AppViralityUI dependency copy the Utils class (https://github.com/appvirality/AppVirality-Android-SDK
}
// Checking Popup visibility conditions as set by you on the AppVirality dashboard
if (appVirality.checkUserTargeting(womCampaignDetail, false)) {
customPopUp.showPopUp(campaignDetails, womCampaignDetail);
}
}
}
}
});
AppVirality’s dashboard & SDK together, offer you a pre-loaded solution of an In-App Mini Notification whose looks and the behaviour (frequency & triggers) can also be controlled from the dashboard directly.
Advice
Let the App users know about referral program by showing mini notification or some banner to achieve great results.
You can tweak the launch of this Notification. The modus operandi is pretty much same as stated above for Popup.
For the launch, however, use the below code snippet:
import com.appvirality.AppVirality;
import com.appvirality.CampaignDetail;
import com.appvirality.Constants;
import com.appvirality.appviralityui.custom.CustomPopUp;
...
AppVirality appVirality = AppVirality.getInstance(this);
CustomPopUp customPopUp = new CustomPopUp(this);
appVirality.getCampaigns(Constants.GrowthHackType.Word_of_Mouth, new AppVirality.CampaignDetailsListener() {
@Override
public void onGetCampaignDetails(ArrayList<CampaignDetail> campaignDetails, boolean refreshImages, String errorMsg) {
if(campaignDetails.size() > 0) {
CampaignDetail womCampaignDetail = campaignDetails.get(0);
if (womCampaignDetail != null) {
if (refreshImages) {
/**
* Download and save WOM campaign images.
* if you are using the AppViralityUI dependency
*/
new com.appvirality.appviralityui.Utils(getApplicationContext()).refreshImages(womCampaignDetail);
//If not using the AppViralityUI dependency copy the Utils class (https://github.com/appvirality/AppVirality-Android-SDK
}
// Checking Mini Notification visibility conditions as set by you on the AppVirality dashboard
if (appVirality.checkUserTargeting(womCampaignDetail, true)) {
customPopUp.showMiniNotification(campaignDetails, womCampaignDetail);
}
}
}
}
});
