Screenqueri.es for Mobile Device Testing

January 11, 2013 — 2 Comments

Screenqueri.es is a relatively new site, currently in beta, for testing how a Web site will look on various mobile devices. It’s an absolute snap to use: just enter the URL of your (or any) site, and Screenqueri.es will load a preview of that site, on a grid of pixels, as it would be loaded by a mobile device. Here’s how part of my site looks on an iPhone:

Once you’ve loaded the page, you can use the menus at the top to change the device or to rotate the device (virtually). The options include both phones and tablets:

I haven’t personally verified the results on all the devices, in part because I don’t have all the devices, which is pretty much the point of using a site like Screenqueri.es. When you get the chance, see how your site looks.

  1. I’ve been using it for a few months. It’s been off a few times, particularly with HTC Evo, but comes pretty close. Both this and responsinator.com (a more simplified version of above) make building responsive sites SO much easier – particularly so since you get almost full functionality in the window and can edit with firebug.
