Wix Editor: About the Mobile Version of Your Site
Updated: 6 days ago
When you build a site with the Wix Editor, a mobile version (or mobile friendly view) is automatically created. We recommend keeping this enabled, as it can improve your site's SEO and ensure the best browsing experience for visitors.
Enabling and disabling the mobile version of your site
Keeping your site mobile friendly optimizes its performance on mobile devices and provides visitors with the opportunity to browse your site on the go. If you disable the mobile friendly view of your site, the desktop view is displayed on mobile devices.
Important:
Wix does not provide support for technical difficulties experienced when showing the desktop view on mobile.
To enable or disable the mobile friendly view:
Click Settings in the top bar of the editor.
Click Mobile Friendly.
Click the toggle in the pop-up to enable or disable it.
Click Close.
Your mobile site and SEO
As the mobile version of your site is optimized for mobile devices, disabling it can impact your site's performance and SEO.
This is because the desktop version of your site is displayed on mobile devices when the mobile-friendly view is disabled. Desktop sites on mobile devices can take a longer time to load, and visitors may not be able to see all of your site's content.
Your mobile site's performance can also be impacted by the amount of content on its pages. We recommend using the mobile editor to organize your mobile site and enhance its performance.
FAQs
Select a question to learn more about your mobile site.
What's different on the mobile version of my site?
Wix automatically resizes your site's content fit mobile screens, and hides any elements from the desktop editor that aren't optimized for the mobile version of your site.
If you have the latest Wix Editor experience, your site's layout is also automatically adjusted to ensure a clear, logical structure.
Can I customize my mobile site separately?
Absolutely. You can use the mobile editor to manage and adjust desktop elements, add and customize mobile-only elements, and add mobile tools.
How can I see the mobile version of my site?
To view your mobile-friendly site, simply enter your site's URL in a browser on your mobile device.
Why can I see a banner for Wix on my live site on mobile?
When you build a free site with the Wix Editor, a Wix banner appears at the top of your live site (on both desktop and mobile). To remove this banner, you need to upgrade your site.
If you published your mobile site before upgrading to a Premium plan, the banner is still displayed. You can remove it by opening your site in the mobile editor and clicking Publish.
Tip: When you upgrade your site / connect a domain, you can enable a banner at the top of your mobile site that invites visitors to download the Wix member app.
