Now that pop up forms can be used for more than just lead caputre, it would be beneficial to be able to adjust the trigger time to less than the required 7 seconds.

We can now use these pop ups for notices, or to suggest more content, and in these cases, having the pop up available immediately would be ideal.

100% agree. The dropdowns would be very helpful to be shown automatically on site arrival, which could act as alert banners for customer bulletins and important news. The 7 second minimum doesn’t work for clients, who need it to appear immediately.

Absolutely agree with this request! We’ve run into the same issue of 7 seconds not being immediate enough for an important notice pop-up. Please adjust the minimum!

100% agree. The default at the moment is set to exit intent which is crazy. Nobody would see the banner at all with this setting.

</div>

Also 100% agree. 7 seconds is not soon enough for our clients, immediately or 2-3 seconds after website entrance would be ideal.

Great idea - not sure why there needs to be a 7 second delay - I’d like to see the pop-ups appear immediately.

Yes please, we do need this. I created a slide in pop up form for a resource download. It takes so long to load on the website. While it gets loaded, the users drop off

I agree. 7 seconds is too long. I would also suggest implementing a function to make it impossible for the visitor to click the pop-up away. Therefore, the visitor has to sign up to watch the page. This is very helpful when it comes to whitepaper, for example. For a whitepaper you want to hide it behind a Data-Wall to generate leads - this could be a nice solution for a “Lead Gen Form”-Feature.
