In a world where attention spans are shortening and external distractions are becoming increasingly difficult to fend off, it is more important than ever to provide an attention-grabbing user experience for your customer. Here at Issuu, we offer an easy-to-use Fullscreen Sharing feature that allows you to fully immerse readers in your content while maintaining a sleek, professional look. In this article, we will explore the benefits of using a fullscreen reader as well as detail examples of Issuu users who have been able to take advantage of fullscreen displays to exhibit their work and improve their outreach.

How to Use the Fullscreen Reader Feature on Issuu

The process to set up a fullscreen experience using Issuu should not take more than a few seconds. Simply select the Fullscreen Sharing setting under Share, and then update the page with your desired logo and brand colors under Fullscreen share. You can also select which page you want to display first in fullscreen mode, choose whether you would like to have the flipbook as a single page or multi-page format, and hide Issuu branding. As the last step, make sure to grab your Fullscreen link by clicking on Get fullscreen link. You have full control over your customer’s reading experience along with your content’s appearance.

The Benefits of Sharing Fullscreen Content

1. More Focus, Less Distraction

Unlike a partial-screen display where it is easy to lose focus, a fullscreen view minimizes distractions and keeps your audience completely absorbed in your content. When content is in fullscreen mode, the reader is less likely to switch tabs or transition to a new activity. 

2. Enhanced Audience Engagement

A fullscreen reader also helps increase engagement. When in the fullscreen view, a user is more likely to click on links or images that are embedded in your content. They also are more inclined to finish reading the entirety of your content as opposed to only certain sections.

3. Customizable Experience

Lastly, Issuu’s fullscreen mode enables maximum brand exposure. Using our platform, you have the ability to showcase your branding (including backgrounds, colors, fonts, etc.), your way. Therefore, while your audience is immersed in your content, they will be repeatedly exposed to your brand and are able to begin to develop a deeper connection with your content and, subsequently, your brand.
