Viewport Size

Viewport Size is a simple and straightforward piece of software designed to offer you access to an online database of mobile phones and tablets, along their basic viewport information, so you can take into account the diversity and popularity of certain devices’ widths, when creating dynamic web pages or apps.

The application experiences a brief and uneventful installation process, after which you can launch it and start working it with immediately, its basic looks requiring very little experience in order to handle it successfully.

The main window of Viewport Size displays all of the devices on record, allowing you to scroll up and down, through them, to get a quick estimate of their variety.

Viewports represent the viewing region on the screen of a device, and knowing their amount and diversity can prove of great help to web developers, as it can assist you in making a calculated choice when creating apps for mobile phones or dynamic web pages.

The program functions as a search tool with several different filters that can be used to thin out the results. As such, you can input the ‘Device Name’, ‘Platform’, ‘OS Version’, ‘Portrait Width’, ‘Landscape Width’ or ‘Release Date’ into the assigned fields and Viewport Size will display all objects matching the criteria. Incidentally, these filters also represent the information columns provided by the application.

It is quite visible that the Viewport Size is a work-in-progress, as its functionality is limited to searching and displaying devices, yet no reports of any kind can be generated. Similarly, the database is fairly small, but shows promise for future additions.

To sum it up, Viewport Size is a handy utility that can help website developers to determine what would be the most demanded width dimensions for the mobile apps and dynamic web pages that you build.
