Lock Content Button

Overview

  The Lock Content Button can be found in the Build Menu in the Audio, Photos, and Videos sections. This is used to lock content inside of the app which requires users to perform one of three actions in the app in order to unlock and view that content:

• QR code: Users must scan the QR code in order to unlock the content
• Social Share: users have to post to a social sight such as Facebook or Twitter to unlock the content
• Email Address: Users have to provide an email address to unlock the content.

The exact action required to unlock and view the content in the app is based on how the content is setup in the CMS
