Mobile-Friendly Test

A viewport meta tag set correctly, readable text without zooming, tap targets at least 48×48px with 8px spacing, no horizontal scrolling, and Core Web Vitals in the green on mobile. Google ranks mobile-unfriendly pages lower.

Google shut down their standalone mobile-friendly test in December 2023. The same signal is still visible in PageSpeed Insights and Search Console. That's what we tap into here.

Google indexes and ranks your pages based on the mobile version, not desktop. If content or links only show on desktop, Google won't see them.

Your phone is probably fast and your network is probably good. The test simulates a mid-tier Android device on a slow 4G connection — the realistic lower bound, not the best case.
