Alternatively, you can share a Showpad asset as a file via your email client. When sharing assets this way you will not receive Showpad insights, so it is preferred to share as instructed above. To share as an email attachment, follow the steps below:

1. Open the asset you wish to share.
2. Click the three dots in the upper right-hand corner. Tap Share Via...
3. Select Email File as attachment or Email page as attachment.
4. This will open your email client on your device if enabled, so you can email the asset as a attached file.

Note: Some file types may have a restriction placed on them by your admin to make them available for download only as a PDF.
