This article refers to the new Wix Harmony Editor, released in December 2025. The Wix Harmony Editor is not yet available to all users. If you're unsure whether you’re using the Wix Harmony Editor or the Wix Editor, view more information here.
With so many visitors browsing on their phones, your site’s mobile look matters more than ever. In the Wix Harmony Editor, the hard part is handled for you — your design on desktop is automatically adjusted to fit all screens.
Access the mobile view to see how your site looks on your visitors' phones. You have the freedom to adjust the design to create the best experience possible, no matter the device.

Click the Mobile icon  in the top right corner of the page.

The connection between desktop and mobile

When you build your site, you create your layout and style on desktop first. Changes at the desktop level automatically flow down to mobile and other screens, keeping everything in sync. This means you only need to design once, and your site is ready for phones, tablets, and computers right away.
Want your site to look just right on mobile? You can fine-tune it by changing the size, color, or placement of elements, without changing the desktop version at all. 
Some actions, like moving elements between sections or containers, are disabled on the mobile view. This is to help keep your site tidy and easy to manage across all devices. If you want to make those bigger moves, switch back to desktop and keep building with confidence.

Adding mobile-only elements

Make your site's mobile experience truly unique by adding mobile-only elements. Once you switch to the mobile view, anything you add from the Add Elements panel is a mobile-only element. 
As these elements don't appear on your desktop site, you can design them and adjust their layout as you wish. This is especially handy when you want to replace desktop elements that are less suitable for smaller screens.

Hiding elements from mobile

You can always hide elements from desktop that you prefer not showing on mobile. Switch to the mobile view and open the Layers panel. Then, click the More Actions icon  next to an element and select Hide so it only appears on desktop.

Still in the Layers panel, click Hidden on mobile at the top to see the full list of hidden elements. If you ever change your mind about an element, click the Show on mobile icon to make it visible again.

Previewing your mobile site

As you're making adjustments, it's important to make sure the design looks good before going live. Click Preview at the top right of the editor. Then, drag the slider at the top to make the screen smaller and see your design adjusting live - not just for mobile but for tablets as well. 

Once you publish, scan the QR code that appears in the editor to see your site directly on your device.
