In the technology world, mobile phones have seen the largest advancements in the shortest amount of time when compared to desktop computers. Recent phones have become incredibly fast and most sport high resolution touchscreens which makes using them much more practical. With these advances, mobile browsing has become a viable option for many people on the go.
Here at T&S, we try to stay on the cutting edge and offer mobile versions of websites that we create. A mobile website is designed separately from the original site with a few things in mind including larger buttons and larger text. We test all our mobile websites with the newest versions of iOS (iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad), Android OS, Blackberry, and Windows Mobile phones.
The two images below illustrate the differences between a mobile website and a full website like you’d see on your computer. On the mobile website, the text has been resized so that it can be easily readable on a smaller screen and links/buttons are larger so that they can be easily tapped by a finger instead of a mouse. This website has been optimized for phones with slower data connections and does not show all of the unnecessary content such as tags on the right side of the page.
