Overview

Our blocks make it easy to customize the home screen of your app. Every customer app comes with a default home screen which can be changed at any time by following the steps below.

Here are some things to know before you start

• Once you submit changes to the home screen of your app it will take around 2-10 business days for our team to fulfill your request.

• The organization of your home screen is the same for every type of user.

• The goals block, challenge block, and daily poll block will only display information relevant to the user, if there is nothing available then the block will shrink out of sight.
