Creating a Classic Experience to organize and present content

Note: This article is no longer maintained. For updated information, please refer to the corresponding Admin App article. We recommend updating your links if you’ve linked to this article.

Classic Experiences allow you to organize your content and distribute it to the relevant users or user groups in Showpad. In each Experience, you can set up a folder structure to organize your content exactly how you want. Well-structured Experiences ensure your users quickly find the information they need, allowing them to save time and focus on their conversations or tasks at hand.

On the user side, Experiences are displayed on the home screen as previews. To make your Experiences recognizable, you can customize their design with a background, a Cover Image, a logo, and custom folder icons.

Note: Cover images are currently only visible to users in the Present tab of Showpad's Web app and the iOS app.
