Mailchimp's mobile app makes it easy to manage your account on the go. Create and edit campaigns, track account activity, send and reply to Inbox messages, view reports, and add new contacts directly from your mobile device.
This app can do a lot for you when you're out and about, but it's not meant to replace the full version of Mailchimp. If you need to do something in your account that isn't available in the mobile app, access the full version of Mailchimp in a web browser.
In this article, you'll learn what you can do with Mailchimp's mobile app.
Here are some things to know before you begin this process.
You’ll find the main navigation at the bottom of your screen. These include Home, Audience, Campaigns, and Analytics. Also, tap the plus icon to access the Quick Actions menu, then add contacts, upload images from the content studio, create email campaigns, social posts, and landing pages.
To search for a specific campaign or contact, tap the search icon.
After you type in a keyword or a name, you can sort your results by either option.
To access your account settings, tap the profile icon on the Home tab.
From there, you can connect additional accounts, switch between connected accounts, verify email domains, manage push notifications, set your logo, set your account to dark mode, search our guides and tutorials, or get help. Use Explore Mailchimp to get a glimpse of other features you can try out.
We’ll provide suggestions and recommended actions on how to grow your audience and share stories about other Mailchimp users. For example, we may suggest that you try a Welcome email automation, an abandoned cart email, or a product retargeting email. To learn more about these features, check out Create an Automated Welcome Email on Mobile, Create an Abandoned Cart Email on Mobile, and Create a Product Retargeting Email on Mobile.
To learn about your settings options, check out Manage Account Settings on Mobile.
The Home tab is an at-a-glance view of how your campaigns are doing. It syncs with your account data as you build your audience and complete campaigns.
The Home tab includes a few important sections.
On the Audience tab, you’ll see performance stats for your audience, including information on opens, clicks, subscribes, unsubscribes, and more. You can also communicate with and manage your audience from this tab.
Here are some tasks and how to complete them.
The Audience growth graph shows monthly trends in your subscribed contacts growth. Tap a bar in the graph to view data for a specific month.
If you have more than one audience, you can switch between them by tapping All Audiences. The audience you switch to will become the new default in your account.
In the Subscribers section, view Subscribes and Unsubscribes from your last campaign.
In the Engagement section, you’ll find the average open and click rate per audience for your campaigns. View the average subscribed, average unsubscribed, total unsubscribed, and total cleaned addresses since your last campaign.
In the Contacts section, view VIP contacts, contacts by tags or groups, see where your contacts are located, and view which email client they used. To learn more about contacts, check out Add or Import Contacts on Mobile.
Here are some tasks and how to complete them.
The Quick Actions tab provides a shortcut to import contacts from a file, your device address book, manually, or use the business card scanner. While you're out and about, quickly add images from the content studio, create landing pages, social posts, or emails to get your message out and grow your audience.
The Campaigns tab shows your emails, automations, landing pages, customer journeys, and social posts. To create a draft campaign, tap the pencil icon or use the Quick Actions menu.
To filter the campaigns, tap the filter icon. Use the filter tool to sort and find your campaigns by type and status.
After you find the campaign you want to work with, tap it and take one of these actions. Available actions vary by the campaign status and type.
These emails and ads haven’t been sent yet.
Ongoing campaigns include automations, RSS campaigns, and ads.
Here, you’ll find campaigns that are done sending.
Use this filter to view all of your draft, ongoing, and completed campaigns. You can also view customer journey details for your draft, active, and paused campaigns.
The Analytics tab displays reports for recent emails, ads, landing pages, social posts, surveys, and customer journeys. Use the Audience drop-down to choose your audience then tap any campaign to view its report and access other tasks.
On the Overview screen of any campaign report, you'll find detailed information and statistics, including the campaign send time and a 24-hour performance graph.
From here, you can also complete these tasks.
Note
Both A/B Testing and Multivariate campaigns are labeled as Multivariate campaigns on this screen. When you view an A/B Testing or Multivariate campaign report, we'll list the winning combination and the combination results.
