Sections are the core building blocks of your platform’s visual layout. Each screen in the app or website is composed of one or more Sections, each with its own content and design type.
Open this page in the Dashboard: Dashboard > App Editor
Navigate to the App Editor and find the Section list (on the right panel). From here, you can:
Click the red “+” to create a new section
Use the search bar to locate existing sections
Delete a section (irreversible) via the X icon
Tip: You can also edit a section directly within the mobile mockup by hovering over it and clicking the pencil icon.
Section Compatibility
Sections are reusable content blocks, but they are scoped by screen type:
Main Screen Sections can be reused across all Main Screens of all apps
Detail Screen Sections apply only to Detail Screens of the same audio type
