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

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.

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).
