How do you customize home screens by user?

Personalize an Adalo home screen with logged-in user data, conditional sections, relevant actions, and a deliberate fallback when profile values are missing.

Short answer

Use Logged-in User Magic Text for personal values, relationships for user-specific records, and conditional visibility for role- or state-specific sections.

Original walkthrough

The intended outcome

A home screen that changes meaningfully based on the current user’s data.

Requirements

  • User accounts
  • Profile or role properties
  • User-related content

Step by step

  1. Step 1: Identify differences

    List only the content or actions that truly vary by user.

  2. Step 2: Bind personal data

    Use Logged-in User Magic Text for the greeting and user properties.

  3. Step 3: Filter related lists

    Show records related to the logged-in user.

  4. Step 4: Gate special sections

    Use visibility conditions for roles or onboarding state.

The underlying logic

Personalization should come from saved user data, not duplicated screens unless flows truly diverge.
