The widget can show announcements to their configured audience.

Promote in app and Advanced in-app eligibility in the Channels drawer.
Promote in app and Advanced in-app eligibility in the Channels drawer.

Check the announcement audience

Open the announcement and select Audience. Choose All users or a Saved segment and save the settings.

The public changelog setting is separate. Public allows anyone with the public link to read the announcement; Audience only requires an identified matching user.

Check the widget experience

Open your application with the Userorbit widget installed. Test as an identified demo user who matches the announcement audience, then check a user who does not match.

Confirm the announcement is published and that the intended widget area is available.

Use in-app promotion separately

Showing an announcement in the widget is different from proactively promoting it. Configure Channels > In-app > Promote in app when you need that presentation.

Do not assume that critical-only badges or custom announcement filters exist unless those controls are present in the current widget settings.

For in-app delivery, use Advanced in-app eligibility to add conditions. These rules stay in-app and are not copied to email delivery. See Combine targeting conditions for in-app experiences.
