Ask HN: Do you read through mobile app intros?

3 pointsby aerialcombatover 8 years ago
Upon an installation of a mobile app you will often see a series of pages &quot;welcoming&quot; you to the app. Maybe throw a few descriptions about the app, etc.<p>Do you read through them? Or do you just fly through them to get to the real stuff?<p>Is there a better&#x2F;best solution to this?

I don&#x27;t &#x27;discover&#x27; apps -- I always download a specific one I&#x27;m looking for (based on external reviews, friend&#x27;s recommendation, etc). So these interstitial pages are rarely useful to me.<p>I suppose the answer might be different if I were downloading an app I&#x27;ve never heard of before, but I am also having difficulty imagining why I&#x27;d want to do that.

Good grief no. A better solution is a &quot;help&quot; menu item.
