App Spotlights
App Spotlights are an additional way to customize your content by making a information full-width across the app. Highlights are arranged in tiled rows, and Spotlights are full-width in a carousel. Spotlight key information with a simple enlarged image and a call-to-action button.
- A Highlight within a Spotlight Section can have a Call to Action button shown on the App Home Screen.
- Spotlight Sections can have one (typical) or multiple highlights in them. If multiple, the first highlight shown will be random each time you load the app.
