Heatmaps zero state

Note

You can view zero state Heatmaps only if there's no applied Visited screen filter.

Once you onboard and go to Heatmaps, you can view the list of popular screens. Adjust your Filters and Segments to view the list of popular screens as you prefer. These popular screens are sorted based on the highest number of sessions.

You can also enter/select a screen as shown:

Suppose you already set a visited screen filter in Recordings or Dashboard vertical. You can view the heatmap for the set visited screen instead of zero state when you go to Heatmaps vertical.
