Every week when I see the updates from Wix, I’m usually disappointed. Very rarely do we get updates that substantially improve Wix Studio’s functionality. The product roadmap feels like gaslighting, with no way to see vote counts and requests that have gone unanswered for years now. Meanwhile we haven’t seen a week go by for a year now when they haven’t announced some update regarding either AI (that no one is asking for) or one of their other products like POS, Bookings, Restaurants, etc.
It’s pretty clear Wix has it’s priorities completely backwards. So here’s what an 8 Billion Dollar company isn’t able to do for their own product:
- Make responsive forms
- Add gradients to anything other section backgrounds (containers/flexboxes/repeaters/text/page backgrounds)
- Add colors to CMS
- Make text linkable with dynamic content
- Add pagination functionality to dynamic content
- Allowing multiple dataset filters to be used on the same collection on the same page
- Fixing Rich Content in CMS to control all elements in the styles panel. Did you know that you can’t change the color of dividers? Wix knows, but they won’t fix it.
- Make buttons with different states besides hover (success, failure, etc)
- Make styled buttons with responsive text/icons
- Make breadcrumbs with responsive text/icons
- Make breadcrumbs that work on dynamic pages
- Add more than one animation of the same type
- Make menu items responsive (can you get any more basic?)
But thank god I can finally generate AI images on mobile! Oh boy!!
