Beta Unlocked: Signature Input

@developershreyan Thank you very much for your excellent feedback!

  1. I am tempted to say “Yes”, but then I guess it depends on the exact type of integration you have in mind. Could you please tell us more about your use case?

  2. This is a great point to bring up. One of the first decisions we had to make when we started with this product was whether it should be targeted at use cases specific to signatures (e.g. contracts), or at more generic ones (serve as a free canvas). We concluded that the requirements for the two products are quite different, both from the perspective of the site visitor and from that of the Wix Editor user. Since demand for a signature input far surpassed that of a free canvas, we decided to go with the first. You are very welcome to request this feature and have others vote on it.

You gave one good example of a feature that is needed for one product but not so much for the other, and there are quite a few other such features. In addition, to give you a taste of other considerations we take into account, we look at things such as: the experience of blind users who require assistive-technology to read out loud the content of the webpage to them (reaching a signature field that identifies as free canvas can be very confusing), how effective our help articles would be for the majority of use cases (in this case, signatures) if we used broad terminology, and legal considerations involved in one product but not the other.

Thanks again for the great feedback!
