TourGuide is an Android library for adding animated pointers, overlays, and tooltips over any View to guide users through an app. It simplifies building onboarding and feature-discovery flows with minimal setup.

Use cases

  • show a pointer highlighting a button during onboarding
  • add tooltips explaining app features to new users
  • create a step-by-step walkthrough of the app UI
  • overlay the screen to focus attention on one view
  • guide users through a first-launch tutorial

When to choose

  • you need simple animated coach marks or tooltips on Android views
  • you want a lightweight onboarding library with an easy API
  • you are building a first-launch tutorial for an Android app

When to avoid

  • you target Jetpack Compose rather than View-based UIs
  • you need actively maintained library with recent updates
  • you need complex multi-screen onboarding flows with state management
