Frequently asked questions​

How quickly do interface changes take effect?

Most changes (page visibility, branding) take effect immediately. Clients see them on next refresh or login.

Can I customize the interface differently for different clients?

Yes. Many settings can be set per client or group. You can also control at user level: Partner Center → Accounts → Manage Users → three dots next to the user → Edit Permissions.

What happens if I hide a page clients are using?

Access to that section is removed immediately. Communicate in advance and offer alternatives if needed.

Can I preview interface changes before applying them?

Some settings have previews. Best practice is to test with a staging or limited group before rolling out to everyone.

How do I know which pages my clients use?

Use analytics and engagement reports to decide what to show or hide.

Can I restore the default Business App name after renaming?

Yes. You can change the name back to "Business App" or another name anytime in branding settings.

What's the difference between hiding a page and disabling a feature?

Hiding a page removes it from navigation; the feature may still be reachable. Disabling a feature removes access and functionality.

How does logo placement affect mobile users?

Test logo visibility and size on desktop and mobile so branding stays consistent.

Can I schedule notification banners for specific times?

Check the banner settings for timing and scheduling options.

What should I consider when customizing for clients?

Focus on client needs, simplicity, and functionality: remove unused features, keep navigation clear, maintain brand consistency, and use client feedback.
