These rules provide more flexibility and precision compared to the old Visibility Rules. For more information, see [Understand the New Visibility Rules experience](/studio/docs/understand-visibility-rules-20). When you enable the new Visibility Rules experience for your account, the new rules apply to all new widgets that you create. However, existing widgets still show the old rules. To use the new Visibility Rules on existing widgets, you need to upgrade them to the new Rules. > [!WARNING] > Note > > Upgrade feature is a Beta feature and can be enabled by contacting [support@whatfix.com](mailto:support@whatfix.com?subject=Enable%20the%20upgrade%20option%20for%20my%20account&body=Hi%20Team%2C%0APlease%20enable%20the%20upgrade%20option%20to%20upgrade%20to%20Advanced%20Visibility%20Rules%20for%20my%20account.%0AENT%20ID%3A%20). > > > > **Prerequisites for enabling the Upgrade feature:** > > The new Visibility Rules experience must be enabled for your account to access the Upgrade feature. ### Why would you want to switch to the new Visibility Rules experience?
