Adding Tools to Your Wix Dashboard

Important:

This feature is available for new Wix accounts created after August 2026.

Your Wix dashboard sidebar shows the apps and pages available for your site. If you're just getting started, you can expand it by adding built-in solutions, such as Marketing, Analytics, and Customers & Leads.

When you add a solution, any Wix apps it includes are automatically installed and new pages are added to your site, giving you everything you need to get started with that part of your business.

These are Wix's tools grouped by business function, and are separate from third-party apps you install through the Wix App Market.
