Mobile View Web Testing & Device Simulator

To ensure that a website looks and functions well across various screen sizes and resolutions, developers need to test their designs on different devices. Not only is this time-consuming, but in some cases, it may not be possible.

Mobile View Web Testing & Device Simulator is a Chrome extension designed to simplify web development and testing processes by providing real-time responsive previews of websites across multiple devices simultaneously.

The installation is typical to any other Chrome extension, and you need to click on the add-on to activate it for the current tab. When you launch a new tab, then the app provides you with an extensive list of devices so you can choose the one you plan on testing.

One of the persistent challenges in web development is ensuring that changes made to a website are not only visually appealing but also functionally sound. Consequently, you need to use localhost servers to test and refine code before deploying it to live servers.

With the extension, you can now test their websites locally without any additional setup or complicated configurations. Moreover, the Simultaneous Device Testing feature streamlines this process, offering you a dynamic and synchronized view of a website across multiple screens in real-time.

Another noteworthy option is the Synchronized Scroll & Navigation feature that enables you to do unified actions like scrolling and navigation across all the devices selected for simultaneous testing.

Simply put, you can instantly observe how changes affect the user experience on different screens, streamlining the identification and resolution of any discrepancies or issues. This can be especially useful for UX/UI designers and QA engineers, who need to ensure consistent and seamless user interactions across various devices.

Mobile View Web Testing & Device Simulator contributes to a more efficient development workflow, ensuring that user interactions are uniform across devices and saving valuable time during the testing and refinement phases of web development.
