Wix Mobile Apps: Customizing Your Member App's Navigation Menu

9 min read
Your Wix member apps, like Spaces by Wix ap or Fit by Wix app, are made up of screens. Each screen, such as the Home screen or the Services screen, acts as a separate "page" in your app. Your app's navigation menu enables your members to navigate between these screens seamlessly.
An example of how the navigation menu looks on the mobile app
You can customize the navigation menu by choosing which screens appear in it and in what order, and whether it appears at the top or bottom of the screen (for your own mobile app only).
In this article, learn how to:

Hiding a screen from your navigation menu

Changing the location of your navigation menu in your own mobile app

When using your own mobile app, you can change the location of the navigation menu from the top bar to the bottom bar. When you place your menu on the bottom bar, it changes from a text menu to an icon menu (with or without text).

  4. Click Screens on the left.
  5. Click Edit Navigation at the bottom left.

    • Top tab bar: Your navigation menu remains in the top bar of the screen.
    • Bottom tab bar: Your navigation menu moves to the bottom bar of the screen, and changes to an icon menu instead of a text menu. You can customize the menu as follows:
      • Enable or disable the Show screen names under the icons toggle to show or hide the screen name text.
      • Hover over an icon and click Change icon to change to a different icon.
