A Wix site with edit access | You need access to the Wix Editor and the site dashboard to install the app, add its element, and publish |
An Instagram professional account | A Business or Creator account is required for the account connection and access to eligible Instagram media. |
Meta access when using Meta for Business (if any) | You must be able to sign in to Meta and select the Facebook Page connected to the intended Instagram account. |
Wix Stores and products (if using product tags) | The products you want to feature should already be active and available in your Wix catalog. |
What this app helps you do
Import photos, videos, reels, carousel children, collaboration posts, and eligible mentioned posts into one Media Library.
Build a storefront feed in one of six layouts: Carousel, Grid, Stacked, Hierarchical, Highlight, or Collage.
