The 4 Best Mobile Menu Plugin for WordPress You Should Know Right now
WP Mobile Menu Plugins
Found the 4 Best Mobile Menu Plugin for WordPress, after testing some other WordPress mobile menu plugins.
Some themes or plugins especially page builders have theme builder features that let you create and customize your Nav Menu as you want. These themes & page builder plugins lack some design layouts I expected to see on tablet and mobile nav menu.
The way nav menus are displayed on laptops, desktops, and larger screens is good and satisfying depending on the theme or theme builder plugin you’re using, as the nav menu can be customized easily as you want it. but on tablets, especially on mobile, it seems we’re always limited to the same Hamburger Menu layout we’re already used to which can be styled as you want and nothing more.
The way nav menu is responsively displayed horizontally on some mobile apps, I wish the nav menu of all website i visit could be displayed like that too because I enjoy better user experience on mobile if the nav menu is horizontal or slidable in the horizontal direction. in this way, I don’t need to click any toggle button to reveal menu items.
Few examples of mobile apps i like their navigation menu:
- TikTok app nav menu – horizontally on the bottom
- Spotify app nav menu – horizontally on the bottom
- Google Play store app nav menu – horizontally on the top
- WhatsApp app nav menu – horizontally on the top
This is why i started testing WordPress mobile menu plugins that could give me at least something similar to the menu of the apps above on mobile and tablet devices.
At the end of my testing, the following 4 plugins stand out among some others.
- Touchy – WordPress Mobile Menu Plugin
- Tactile WordPress Mobile Menu
- Horizon – Menu Bar Plugin for WordPress
- Superfly – Responsive WordPress Menu Plugin
1. Touchy – WordPress Mobile Menu Plugin
Touchy is a premium mobile menu and header plugin for WordPress. Designed with smartphones in mind, it is quick, reactive and super comfortable to use.
