Adding User Feedback, Roadmap & Changelog to Your Adalo App with UserJot

Connect your Adalo application with UserJot to easily gather user suggestions, display your product plans, and announce updates. This guide shows you how to link UserJot’s feedback board, roadmap, and changelog directly from your Adalo app.

Why Connect UserJot to Your Adalo App?

Integrating UserJot with your Adalo app provides dedicated spaces for user interaction. You can collect user feedback directly, showcase your development direction with a public product roadmap, and keep users informed about new features through a changelog. This helps build community and transparency around your product development.

Setting Up Your UserJot Features

Before linking to Adalo, you need your UserJot spaces ready.

  1. Create a UserJot Account: Sign up at UserJot to get started. Your project will have a default subdomain like yourproject.userjot.com.
  2. Prepare Your Boards: Set up your feedback board(s), roadmap, and changelog within UserJot.
  3. Get Your Links: Note the URLs for each section you want to link:
    • Feedback: https://yourproject.userjot.com/
    • Roadmap: https://yourproject.userjot.com/roadmap
    • Updates/Changelog: https://yourproject.userjot.com/updates
    • If using a custom domain (e.g., feedback.yourcompany.com), use those URLs instead. See the linking guide for examples.

Adalo makes it straightforward to link external URLs from components like buttons, text, or navigation elements.

  1. Open Your Adalo App: Log in to Adalo and open the app editor.
  2. Select a Component: Choose the button, text, or list item where you want to add the UserJot link (e.g., a “Feedback” button in your app’s menu or profile screen).
  3. Add Link Action:
    • With the component selected, find the “Actions” section in the left-hand panel.
    • Click ”+ Add Action”.
    • Choose the “Link” action type, then select “Website”.
  4. Enter UserJot URL: In the “Website URL” field, paste the full URL for the desired UserJot page (e.g., https://yourproject.userjot.com/ for the feedback board).
  5. Configure Link Behavior (Optional): Decide if the link should open in the Adalo web view or the device’s default browser. For external sites like UserJot, opening in the default browser is often preferred.
  6. Repeat for Other Links: Add separate links for your roadmap and changelog using the same process with their respective URLs and appropriate components/text (e.g., a “Roadmap” button linking to https://yourproject.userjot.com/roadmap).
  7. Test Your Links: Preview your Adalo app and click the links to confirm they open the correct UserJot pages.

Use clear link text like “Share Feedback,” “View Roadmap,” or “See What’s New” so users understand where the link leads. Placing these links in your app’s settings, help section, or main navigation is common.

Matching UserJot to Your App Design

For a cohesive user experience between your Adalo app and UserJot pages, use UserJot’s customization features. Adjust your project’s name, logo, favicon, and primary color in the Branding settings. Using a custom domain like feedback.yourapp.com also reinforces your brand identity.

Conclusion
