HTML5 interactions published with Engage 360 use the responsive mobile player when viewed on tablets and smartphones.
The responsive player dynamically adapts to different tablets and smartphones, providing an optimized view of your interaction on every device—no extra work required. It fluidly responds to different mobile screen sizes and orientations, eliminating browser chrome, and delivering mobile-friendly playback controls.
The responsive player moves out of the way to maximize the screen real estate for your interaction content. Your content will maintain its aspect ratio, but it’ll scale to fill as much of the screen as possible on tablets and smartphones.
See these responsive player FAQs for details.
