This document focuses on Appcues installation in mobile applications, for information about installing Appcues in web applications check out the Appcues Installation Overview doc!

Once you have registered your mobile app in Appcues Studio, the developer of your mobile app can install the Appcues iOS or Android SDK in your mobile app or cross-platform framework. This usually takes less than an hour but can take longer depending on any customizations you need to track user activity or send user or group data to Appcues. Your mobile developer should review our SDK’s GitHub documentation below for details:
