Change the Desktop Website
By default, you should get the mobile version of any website. This is usually more helpful for mobile users and even makes some pages load faster.
With that said, some of us like using the desktop version of at least some of the websites we visit.
If you want, you can change the request to the desktop website of any page you visit by tapping the aA button and then tapping Request Desktop Website.
However, if you plan on using the desktop version all the time, you can make it so your iPhone always requests the desktop website when you visit it. This is how:
- Open the Settings app.
- Scroll down and tap on Safari.
- Scroll down to the bottom and then select Request Desktop Website.
- Enable All Websites.
Note that while this helps with many websites, it doesn’t work with all of them; some will still detect you’re using mobile Safari and serve you up the mobile version either way.
