AEM Touch UI Manual

Adobe Experience Manager's 'classic' backend interface has been deprecated and is soon being replaced with the new 'Touch UI' interface.

Both Classic and TouchUI will run simultaneously for the next few months so that existing authors have a chance to get familiar with the new user interface of the backend. There are already known issues with components or templates not functioning properly when in the Classic mode and therefore highly recommend to start using only the Touch UI when editing in AEM.

The Touch UI is required to edit the new wide Homepage template and for all wide content pages in order to see and use all new components.

For legacy home and content page templates, you can still reference this Classic manual, but we encourage you to switch all pages before the classic UI is shutdown in the first quarter of this year. After the classic shut down, legacy pages will be read only and require the switch in order to update the page and the Classic manual will be deleted!

We encourage all authors to use the Touch UI as much as possible during this dual time period in order to gain familiarity with it. The new Touch UI AEM manual is fairly comprehensive and video tutorials will be made available by June.

A full table of contents of the Touch UI manual is available below with a search bar to help find content. Additional helpful information for authors:
