With the Content Manager feature, you can empower your app with dynamic, customizable content that goes beyond static pages. App owners can create and manage a wide range of content types—including audio files, images, videos, external URLs, and locations—all from a centralized dashboard.
Once content is created, it can be easily displayed to users. This allows for a clean, structured presentation of the content within the app—ideal for portfolios, media libraries, directory listings, or promotional feeds.
There’s no limit to the number of content items you can create, and each piece of content can be enriched with titles, descriptions, tags, and visuals to enhance discoverability and user engagement.
Whether you're building an app for events, media sharing, travel, or e-learning, the Content Manager provides a flexible solution for curating and showcasing multimedia content in an organized, user-friendly format.
