Auto design using your AI app
Redesign your menu with an AI tool you already know — ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini. Navi+ prepares the data and prompt; you just run it through the AI and bring the result back. This feature is free.
Open: the AI button → Auto design using your AI app card.
Before you start — back up your menu
⋮ More → Backup / Restore — save your current menu as a file or to the cloud before making changes. Don’t skip this step.
1 — Train your AI
You need a web-based AI tool. Recommended large-context models: Claude Opus 4.7, ChatGPT GPT-5, or Gemini Pro 1.5.
Click Open training docs, copy everything, and paste it into your AI chat. This teaches the AI how Navi+ menus are structured.
2 — Send your current menu (JSON) to the AI
Once the AI understands the structure from Step 1, send it your current menu:
- Copy current menu to clipboard and paste it into the chat, or
- Download the JSON file and attach it to the chat.
3 — Give design instructions
Type your request in natural language. You have full control over the design; the AI returns a new menu as JSON. For example:
- Add 2 items: Blog and Careers.
- Change the primary color to blue
#1a73e8. - Trim to 4 main items, move the rest under a More item.
- Add a fitting icon to each item and bold the Promotions item.
- Translate all item names to English.
4 — Paste the result and apply
Copy the JSON the AI returns, then apply it to Navi+ in one of two ways:
- Option 1: Paste the JSON into the input box and click Apply.
- Option 2: Click Upload JSON file and choose your
.jsonfile.
Repeat Steps 3–4 until the menu looks right, then click Save.
Tip: The AI only changes the structure and content in the JSON. Fields you configured but didn’t mention are kept — but still review the menu after applying.
Case study — declutter a tab bar with Claude
Context: A store has a messy 8-item tab bar and wants to trim it to 5 items and add icons, while keeping all existing links.
- Back up: ⋮ More → Backup / Restore → save a copy.
- Step 1 — Train the AI: Open Claude (Opus 4.7), click Open training docs in Navi+, copy everything, and paste it into Claude.
- Step 2 — Send the menu: Click Copy current menu to clipboard and paste the JSON into Claude.

Step 3 — Instruct: Tell Claude:
Merge these 8 items into 5 main items: Home, Products, Promotions, Blog, Account. Move the leftover items into suitable sub-groups. Add an icon to each level-1 item. Keep all existing links unchanged. - Step 4 — Apply: Claude returns new JSON. Copy it, paste into the Apply box in Navi+ → click Apply.
- Check: 5 items, full icons, original links intact. Need more tweaks? Repeat Steps 3–4. Happy? Click Save.
Result: A clean 5-item tab bar with icons, all links preserved — no editing each item by hand.
