In app vs Content cards

Its not explicitly explained what is the difference.

How I see:

  1. In app are like modals in the Web. On the top (Z-index: 1000) 
  2. Content cards are implemented inline with the other mobile app content

Your summary is correct — just missing the full nuance:

In‑App = Top‑layer overlay messages (Modals / Toasts / Popups)
Content Cards = Persistent inline feed messages (News Feed Cards / Inbox Items)

​@Michael_Soprano 

  • In-app = transient message presentation, often overlay-like, interruptive or semi-interruptive, with layout modes such as modal/fullscreen/banner/custom HTML.
  • Content Cards = persistent UI content, typically rendered in a feed/inbox or app container, meant to remain available for repeated viewing until dismissed or hidden.
