MAKE IT MAKE SENSE

Make the small-screen version complete

Review the content and interactions someone actually gets on a phone.

Keep important information available

Mobile layouts should retain the main content and meaningful page information. Collapsing a section can help organization, but removing the answer because the screen is small changes the page’s purpose.

Test the awkward details

Try long headings, menus, error messages and forms with realistic input. Check for horizontal overflow and controls that crowd each other. Rotate the device and verify that zoom and keyboard interaction remain usable.

Review real tasks

Follow the same journey you would test on a larger screen, including the confirmation and the way back. Google’s mobile-first guidance is a useful technical reference, while direct usability checks show whether the experience makes sense.
