Hi There! I have a client who wants the mobile version of his site to Parallax… otherwise he wants to move his site to Word Press. I very much want to continue working with Wix… does anyone know code for this ? or even someone I can hire to be able to do this on the Wix platform?
Also, do we have any idea when WIX will be adding this to the mobile features? I really want to keep my client on WIX rather than having him switch to Word Press. Please help!

Hi,
Unfortunately this feature is not yet supported.

was thinking this myself… and didn’t think it could be done
but wondering how they done it with this website?

Do you believe that site is a WIX site? Other platforms have the ability to parallax on Mobile, such as Square Space and also Word Press. But if this is a WIX site… maybe the reason it looks like it can ‘Parallax’ is because the picture is just the background… and therefore the site moves over the background in this nature? Thoughts on this?
I just took a closer look and Its a ‘Reveal’ feature with the backrgound Video/Picture. So if this is a Wix site… it must be something to do with the Video/Picture being the background.

This is indeed a Wix site.
This effect was achieved by disabling the Mobile view
Brilliant… That’s interesting taking a closer look i can no see its not optimised for mobile. With the new
Wix Turbo do you think Ido these effects will be brought across to mobile to give us more creativity with our layouts??
Thanks for the reply
Would like this feature also, I hope its being worked on
Need an update relative to including this feature on mobile. If there is no plan to enhance then will need to move all of our sites off WIX at this time. Clients want their mobile sites to be very similar to their core sites which seems like a reasonable request. We have put them off for a while but the noise has increased. Please advise if being worked on and if so timing of release.
I’ve left wix and gone over to square space for this reason.
I work at a wix website. Even this platform is limited, if you remove “Optimize for mobile” your website will work 100% better. “Optimize for mobile” option looks like a beta thing. There is no way in 2019 a mobile website taking so f long to load. Take a look at my website: https://www.otakucineasta.com/ (do it on mobile)
Wix knows what people want and they fail to address any of these issues. They were ahead of the game in the beginning, now they’ve fallen behind all the other platforms because they don’t make changes or keep up with technology. Moreover, their tech support is almost unreachable and hold times can be as much as an hour; then they get attitude-y when you call them out on it. I will be switching to SS as soon as possible, but it’s a Herculean task to move all the photos etc.
If this feature isnt implemented soon I will move my site to wordpress.
I think wix does a pretty awesome job of staying with the times and constantly improving. I find square space very difficult to tweak or make unique so I really dont enjoy the interface… but I am always very curious at people who do love SS. Tell me more if have time ??? Always curious and always open. I personally would like the parallax feature on the mobile version of the site as well, but I have also found that having it not on their is better than having it go “jankie” like the parallex feature does with my mobile version of Sites on Square Space. I think WIX is definitely paying attention and going to be cutting edge in the long run. But I do agree with you about customer support and I do wish it was easier to talk to someone to ask questions and get answers along the way… even if its just the reasons why they don’t want to focus on current features at this time. If you find a better software to build on … please let me know. I am definitely intrigued and always looking to learn and also see what is new and cool out there. Thanks for your post. It got me thinking.
Hey Wix! Any update on parallax scrolling being rolled out for mobile site. It’s 2020 and if SS and WP can do it I would hope Wix could too. At least an update on the progress, if there is any, would be greatly appreciated.
