What is a Mobile-Friendly Checker?

A mobile-friendly checker tests whether a page works well on phones: correct viewport tag, responsive layout, readable text, no sideways scrolling and a light page weight. Google uses mobile-first indexing, so the mobile version of your page is the one that ranks.

Google retired its own Mobile-Friendly Test in 2023, but mobile usability still affects rankings, Core Web Vitals and conversions. This tool checks the code-level causes of mobile problems and shows a live 375 px preview so you can see the page like a phone user.

Frequently asked questions

Does Google still have a Mobile-Friendly Test?

No. Google retired the Mobile-Friendly Test and the Search Console Mobile Usability report in December 2023. Lighthouse and tools like this one check the same signals.

What is mobile-first indexing?

Google crawls and ranks your site using the mobile version of each page. If content is missing or broken on mobile, it is missing for Google too.

Is a responsive theme enough?

Usually it is the most important part, but page-builder sections, embeds and custom code can still break the layout on phones.

What font size should I use on mobile?

Use at least 16 px for body text. Small labels should not go below 12 px.

Why is the preview blank?

Some sites block being shown in a frame for security. Open the page on your phone or use Chrome DevTools device mode instead.
