Multi Select Dropdown Mobile is a native mobile element for Bubble apps that lets users select multiple options from a searchable, tag-style dropdown — the same UX pattern used by top-tier native apps.

Built entirely with Bubble's mobile React component architecture, it works seamlessly inside Bubble's mobile app editor (no web-only workarounds).

Key features:


Tag-style selected items with one-tap removal (tap the tag or its ✕ icon)
Live search/filter as you type, with the matched text highlighted
Backspace shortcut: press backspace on an empty search field to remove the last selected tag
Works with static choices (type your own list) or dynamic choices (any Bubble data type)
Automatic loading state while dynamic data is fetched — no manual refresh needed
Configurable maximum number of selections, with remaining options automatically disabled once the limit is reached
Smart dropdown positioning — opens upward automatically when there's no room below
Built-in multi-language support: Portuguese, English, and Spanish (or auto-detected from the device)
Fully customizable tag colors, border, and roundness to match your app's design
Required-field indicator support
Smooth open/close and tag animations, subtle shadows, and touch feedback for a premium feel


Ideal for: filters, multi-category pickers, tag assignment, multi-select forms, and any mobile screen where users need to pick several items from a list without leaving the field.

Instructions

1. Drag the element onto the screen In Bubble's mobile editor, drag "Multi Select Dropdown Mobile" onto the desired layout.

2. Choose the source of the options
Static list: under choices_style, select static and type the options in static_choices, one per line.
Database list: under choices_style, select dynamic, point choices_source to the desired Data Source (e.g. Search for Categorias) and set option_caption to Current option's Display (or whichever field represents each item as text).

3. (Optional) Set an initial selection
Fill default_value with the items that should already be selected when the page loads, separated by commas — it needs to match the displayed text exactly.

4. (Optional) Selection limit
Fill max_items with the maximum number of items that can be selected at once. Once the limit is reached, the remaining options are visually disabled.

5. (Optional) Required field
Enable is_required so the border turns red while nothing is selected — useful for forms.

6. (Optional) Customize the look
Adjust font_color, bg_color, delete_icon_color, roundness, border_width, and border_color to match your app's theme.

7. (Optional) Language
Leave language as default to auto-detect from the device's language, or force pt, en, or es.

8. Save the selection to the database
In any Workflow (e.g. a "Save" button), use a Create a new Thing or Make changes to a Thing action, and in the target field, use the dynamic value [Element name]'s selected_items.

Note: selected_items is a list of text, not of records (Things). If the target field in the database is a list of a Data Type (e.g. a list of Categoria), you'll need an extra step in the workflow to convert text → Thing (e.g. Search for Categorias filtered by Display = each item).

9. React to changes in real time
Use the An item_selected, An item_removed, or value_changed events (in the element's Workflow tab) to trigger automatic actions as the user interacts — e.g. updating a counter, filtering another list, etc.

10. Technical requirements
Compatible only with Bubble's mobile editor (React function(props) component architecture) — does not work in the traditional web editor.
Requires no external libraries — uses only the React instance already available in Bubble's environment.
