On this "action" step, Dice shows a nudge to scroll to learn how that feature works.
Behind this Bite
Importantly, the height of the content is set so that if you don't scroll, they've not distracted the main "action" area.
i.e., you can only see it on scroll.

Progressive Disclosure is the art of exposing complexity only when needed. Dice hides syncing info until users scroll, so the main action stays clean and focused for most people.
Curiosity Gap is when incomplete info nudges people to learn more. Dice’s “How does syncing work?” prompt teases extra details, which can boost attention and voluntary discovery.
Cognitive Load is the mental effort needed to complete a task. By keeping extra info hidden until scrolled, Dice reduces cognitive load for users who just want to connect music quickly.
Nibble uses a similar pattern with its 'slide to reveal' fact. Both Dice and Nibble make extra info optional, so users who are curious can dig deeper without slowing down everyone else.
Play makes onboarding interactive by letting users try features as they learn. Dice’s scroll-to-reveal is similar—both let users explore at their own pace, which can make learning feel lighter.
