What are explainer screens?
Explainer screens are blank, custom pages you can add to your quiz. By default, they begin with no content aside from a 'Continue' button.
If you haven't used one already, here are some ways you can use explainer screens:
Loading pages
Landing pages
Presenting information
Filler between questions
and more!
Since explainer screens are filled with your content, they're a great part of an on-brand experience.

Loading pages are made with a few simple components:
A still image or animated GIF

Text (optional)
An on-brand image and a small note to people taking the quiz is normally more than enough. Follow the steps below for a detailed dive into how to turn an explainer screen into a loading page.

📕 Choosing a way to proceed from the loading page
In order to save your quiz, explainer screens must have at least one method of proceeding from the page. You can choose 1 of 3 options (or all 3):

Continue after timer
Continue when clicking anywhere
Explainer screens start with a continue button by default. Enable another method of continuing from the page in order to disable the button.
