How to Edit Screenshots on Heatmap.com

There may be elements on your page you want to see that are not in your Resting State of your website. These elements are typically Navigations, Sliders, or Drop-Downs. This article is to give you a simple guide for how to open and view these elements using Heatmap.com.

When you first open a screenshot on Heatmap.com it shows your Resting Page (no unique elements) so this is the process to create a screenshot that shows all click & revenue data for your navigation or other elements.

Simple overview, you’ll be changing your screenshot via our QR code system and selecting “Prepare Screenshot” to open any element you want that is not in your current screenshot of that page.

If this process does not function properly for your website, reach out to Support@heatmap.com so we can quickly troubleshoot & fix this for you!

Step 1: Change Screenshot

Open the heatmap screen of the page you want to optimize. Click the Gear Icon next to the title of the page, it will open a dropdown, select Change Screenshot.

Step 2: Open QR Code on your phone

When you click Change Screenshot, a popup will appear showing the process for taking a Custom Screenshot. Follow the instructions for opening the QR code.

Do not touch your phone until the popup appears, it may take 10-15 seconds based on the speed of your site.

Click “Load All Elements” and wait for the process to finish.
