So, some keys to mobile

24Confidential


General Mobile Design Considerations

• Most Phones Don’t Support JavaScript!!

• Handheld CSS and Display:None do NOT make your PC site mobile

• Integrating Flash Objects/Widgets is not supported on most phones

• Integrating with Apps is different then adding content to a Mobile Website

• When pulling feeds make sure don’t include tables as these won’t translate well to other devices (ex. YouTube and Amazon)

• Most social networks are moving towards oAuth for verification, so you’ll need to ensure that there is a mobile versions of the authorization screen

•The embedded object links on YouTube only works on advanced Phones (iPhone, Android, Pre)

•YouTube automatically takes you to mobile site on mobile phone, so PC link is ok

•YouTube’s API provides access to various mobile supported formats

•Mobile encoding for Blackberry and Flip Phones can take 24 hours to convert for mobile viewing
