Setting viewing permissions for your screens
FAQs

Your own mobile app includes various screens that keep your content organized, such as 'Home', 'Events', 'Classes', etc. App users can browse these screens using the navigation menu at the top.

You can control who sees each screen by setting permissions. For example, you might make a 'Classes' screen visible only to members with a pricing plan or a trainer badge, while other users won’t see it.

Note:

Your native app can be set to member mode or visitor mode. Visitor mode gives you more options for setting screen permissions and anyone can open the app, even if they're not a member.

Setting viewing permissions for your screens

Choose who can view each screen in your Wix mobile apps. Restrict access to members with selected badges or pricing plans, and customize how excluded members experience the app.

For example, you can hide a screen from users without access or show it locked with your own message and call-to-action button.

Before you begin:

Set your app to visitor mode to access more permission options for each screen. In member mode, selecting 'All members' gives everyone access and hides those advanced settings.
