Often when we open an application, we see a screen that tells us about it or about some recently added features. The screen may consist of several pages that you have to flip through one by one. There may be a button to skip it all and go to the main interface of the application. This is commonly referred to as an onboarding screen.

It is bad practice to do so.

@ilyabirman You missed the important thing I think: most of the onboarding screens try to sell me a subscription. Adv pushes paid features to the user

@ilyabirman I bet everyone would agree that onboarding screens are flawed as a concept, but it’s the only one that could be universally (as a pattern) applied to any app?
