Question: Web page view from Android device

Question

Hi

I am trying to view the Confluence page from on a mobile phone. I have made the web link into QR code and later, scan the code from wechat. On my iPhone, the web page opened perfectly, which has no side bar. However, when I tried it on my android phone with all same APP/Setting, the page shows in Desktop mode, which means the side bar is on.

Would it be possible to force the page to display in mobile mode by add any parameters in the URL?

@Ladm It sounds like the WeChat browser is the issue.  There are not any parameters you could pass or URL that would make it mobile.  The browser has to recognize the headers as mobile.

I am using wechat to  scan the code. It seems the wechat on android cannot recognize a right mode. However, I cannot ask wechat to do anything but would it be possible to have any parameters to be intergrade into the link?

By default when opening the site on a mobile device it should detect that and use the mobile site.  Is the browser on your Android phone setup to run in desktop mode?
