The app tour shows you around Loopa in about three minutes. It puts a spotlight on one real button at a time, tells you what that button does, and waits for you to tap it. Nothing is a demonstration: every step points at something already on your screen, and anything you log along the way is a real entry that stays in your record.
The tour is free. Everyone gets it.
When you are offered it
Once you have finished setting up your profile, Loopa asks whether you would like a look around. Two answers:
- Start tour begins straight away.
- Skip for now closes the offer. You will not be asked again.
Either answer is final in the sense that the offer does not come back on its own. The tour itself is always one tap away.
What it covers
Eleven steps, in this order:
A short welcome, and how the tour works.
Your rings. Fuel, Water and Move, and what each of them counts down.
The + button. Where every kind of logging starts.
+8 OZ. Adding a glass of water without opening anything.
Activity. Walks, runs and active minutes.
Workouts. Sessions, sets and personal records.
Help Me. Asking the coach a question.
Trends. What your log adds up to over time.
You. Your profile, your goals and your connected devices.
App tour. Where to find the tour again.
A one-line finish.
Stopping and picking it up again
Every step has a ✕ in the corner of its card. Tapping it ends the tour and remembers where you were.
After that, a Continue tour card appears at the top of your dashboard showing which step you reached. Tap Resume to carry on, or the ✕ on the card to put it away.
Your place follows you. Where you stopped is stored with your account, not on the handset, so leaving the tour on your phone and picking it up on a tablet (or after reinstalling) carries on from the same step.
Running it again
You → Help → App tour.
If you are partway through, it resumes. If you finished it or skipped it, it starts from the beginning.
Premium steps
Three of the steps cover features that come with Loopa Premium: Workouts, Help Me and Trends. Everyone sees those steps, and each one carries a PREMIUM label and a line saying so.
Tapping the highlighted control on one of those steps does exactly what tapping it does at any other time. If you are on the free tier you will see what the feature is and what it costs; close that and the tour carries on from where it was.
On every device
The tour is the same on iPhone, iPad and Android. The same eleven steps, pointing at the same controls.
