    Privacy Policy

    A mobile app privacy policy informs users about your data collection practices, disclosing how your app gathers, stores, and uses personal information (if applicable). Privacy policies for mobile apps should be accessible at all times and can be found in the app via the gear icon.

    • Button Title: The title of the button users can click to view your privacy policy.
    • URL: Add the link to your online privacy policy here.

    Support email

    Support e-mail: When users report a problem, their message will be sent to this e-mail address.

    Supported Orientations

    Here we can define whether the app can be rotated on Android devices or set some general options for app usage.

    Application Behavior

    • Prompt for App Store Rating: Prompts the user to rate your app in the App Store.
    • Blur snapshot in iOS and Android app switcher: If you enable this option, potentially sensitive information in the app switcher screen will automatically be blurred.
    • Keep All Data Offline: With this option enabled, an app will be forced to download all available content when starting up for the first time. See this article for more info.
    • Sharing on Social Media: When allowing sharing on social media, users can share articles. For more info, see this article.
    • Encrypt PDF Files: Enables on-the-fly encryption for PDF content items. That way, PDF files are protected on mobile devices (most relevant on 'open' systems like Android).
    • Save reading position in PDF files: allows the user to return to the last visited page in the PDF.
    • Externally Managed Content: Enable this when you have an external system that manages the content. This puts the content items and collections of your app in read-only mode on the Twixl platform. For more info, see this article.
    • Metered Access: Allows you to upload free preview items that users can check for free before they purchase the item. Once this feature is enabled, it cannot be disabled.
    • Prompt for App Updates: Informs users when opening the app in case a new version of the app is available in the App Store or Google Play Store.
