Can I share a link to a Webflow project for preview on different devices?

TL;DR
  • Open your Webflow project, click the Share button, enable "Share Read-Only Link", and copy the URL.
  • Share the link for others to preview the design and responsiveness, though they cannot edit.
  • Use Preview Mode in Webflow's Designer to test different screen sizes.
  • For full functionality testing, publish to Webflow’s staging site and share that link.

Yes, Webflow provides a Share Link that allows others to preview your project on different devices. Follow these steps to generate and share it:

  • Open your Webflow project in the Designer.
  • Click the Share button (arrow icon) in the top-right corner.
  • Toggle on "Share Read-Only Link" and copy the generated URL.
  • Send the copied link to anyone who needs to preview the website.
  • They can open the link on different devices to test responsiveness.
  • Viewers cannot edit the project but can inspect elements and page structure.

3. Use Webflow’s Live Preview

  • Click the eye icon (Preview Mode) at the top-left of the Designer.
  • Resize the Designer window or use built-in device breakpoints to simulate different screen sizes.

4. Publish a Staging Site for Real Device Testing

  • If you need to test interactions and animations on actual devices, publish to Webflow’s staging domain:
  • Click Publish in the top-right.
  • Select webflow.io as the destination (e.g., yourproject.webflow.io).
  • Share the published link for a more accurate test.

Summary

Use the Share Read-Only Link for structure and design previews within the Webflow Designer. For full functional testing, publish to a staging domain (.webflow.io) and share that link.
