I. Intro 

Version requirement: Feishu version 7.13 or above. 
Who can perform these steps: Primary administrators and administrators with customization permissions. 

As an administrator, you can customize the Feishu navigation bar on both the desktop and mobile app. This includes which apps appear there, their order, and their names. Changes can be made for both the whole organization and for specific user groups. 

II. Steps 

Notice: Members can add or delete apps from the navigation bar and adjust the order of apps by themselves. Therefore, the apps and order displayed by member clients may be different from those configured by the administrator.

Enter the Feishu Admin Console and click Customization > Feature Settings > In-App Navigation Bar. 

Customize the navigation bar 

Choose to customize either the Mobile or Desktop navigation bar, and then click Edit Navigation. 

Add installed apps to the navigation bar

You can add installed apps to the navigation bar. These apps can either be displayed directly on the navigation bar or in More. 

Click Add under Directly shown apps or More depending on where you want to place apps, then click Select from Installed Apps.

In the window that opens, select apps, and then click Add.

Add links to the navigation bar

Notice: Links you add to the navigation bar will always be opened in the Feishu app irrespective of whether members change their settings. Additionally, members cannot manually remove the links.

You can also add any web page link, such as a document or task list to the Feishu navigation bar. 1. Click the Add under Directly shown apps or More and select Add via Link.

Configure the following:

Link URL: Enter a HTTP or HTTPS address. Adding an app link or group chat link is not supported.

Name: Enter a name to be displayed on the navigation bar.

Icon: Select an icon from the gallery or upload an image to represent the link.

Click Add in the lower-right corner.

Click Confirm to view the configuration effect on the right side of the page.

Adjust the order of apps in the navigation bar

You can drag apps to change their order, with a preview of the navigation bar shown on the right.

You can place important and frequently used apps under Directly shown apps to increase their visibility. For less frequently used apps, place them in More.

Pin apps in the navigation bar

If you move an app to the first position, at the top left, you'll see the option to pin it to the top of the navigation bar. 

Remove apps from the navigation bar

Click the - icon next to an app to remove it from the navigation bar. 

Save navigation bar changes

Once you've finished configuring the navigation bar, click Save.

Click Adjust to confirm your changes.

Note: If members are using a Feishu app version earlier than V7.25, they will receive a notification about the navigation bar update after the administrator saves the configuration. Members can choose one of the following options:

Update: The latest navigation bar configuration will be applied immediately without restarting Feishu.

Not now: The navigation bar will update automatically the next time Feishu is restarted.

Configure the navigation bar based on user groups

For more information on configuring the navigation bar for specific user groups, see Admin | Customize navigation bar layouts for user groups.

App name configuration 

In the App Name Settings tab you can see the default names of the apps in different languages. Click Edit to change the app names displayed in the navigation bar. 

You can set different names for five languages: English; Chinese; Traditional Chinese, Hong Kong; Traditional Chinese, Taiwan; and Japanese. If the Japanese and English names are not filled in, when the member switches the system language of the app to English and Japanese, the app name will default to Chinese.
