# Delay Interaction ## **How it works** 1. **Drag and drop:** Place the Delay Interaction Component onto the screen where you want the pause to occur. 2. **Set the delay time:** In the component's properties, enter the pause duration in milliseconds (1000 milliseconds = 1 second). 3. **(Optional) Add interactions:** The interactions panel allows you to define specific actions that will occur after the delay. For example, you could show a confirmation message, trigger an animation, or navigate to a different part of your app. ## **Example use cases** * **Splash screen:** Show your app's logo for a few seconds while it loads. * **Onboarding flow:** Give users a moment to read instructions before asking them to interact. * **Progress indicator:** Display a loading bar while a task is being completed. * **Interactive tutorials:** Pause between steps to allow users to follow along. * **Form validation:** Briefly display an error message before clearing a form field ## Tutorials
