Why add feedback to Angular apps?
The script tag sits in index.html, outside Angular’s bootstrap, so upgrades of Angular itself never touch your feedback setup.
Step 1: Create a TellTide app and copy your App ID
Sign in to TellTide, open Apps, and create an app for your site. Set the App link to your public URL — in production, the widget only accepts submissions from pages on that hostname. Copy the App ID; every snippet below uses it.
Step 2: Add the script to src/index.html
Place the tag at the end of the body, after your app root element:
<!-- src/index.html -->
<body>
<app-root></app-root>
<script
src="https://telltide.com/src/widgets/widget.js"
data-app-id="YOUR_APP_ID"
></script>
</body>Step 3: Verify the feedback loop end to end
Open your site, click the TellTide launcher (bottom corner by default), and submit a test bug report. It should appear in your TellTide inbox within seconds. From there you can reply-triage privately, and later publish your first feature request to the public roadmap.
Good to know
- The launcher survives Angular Router navigation — it is not part of any component subtree.
- No changes needed in angular.json; index.html is already the shell for every build target.
- Set the App link to the deployed app URL; ng serve on localhost works out of the box.
Common questions
Does the widget run inside Angular’s zone?
No — it operates entirely outside Angular’s change detection, so it cannot trigger extra render cycles or interfere with zone.js patches.
Will the widget slow down my Angular site?
No — the snippet loads a single small script at the end of the body, after your content renders. It does not block paint or affect your Core Web Vitals.
Is the feedback users send public?
No. Unlike board-first tools, everything arrives in a private inbox. Bug reports and reviews stay internal; you publish only chosen feature requests to a roadmap users can vote on.
How much does TellTide cost?
The free plan includes the widget, private inbox, API, and public roadmap for one app. Paid plans add unlimited apps and advanced features — pricing never scales with how many users you have.
