I converted this site to be more mobile-friendly a few months ago. I am not sure if Google is going to look at what percentage of your visitors are on mobile. I think it is a binary “mobile friendly” or “mobile unfriendly” designation.

I wonder if this move by Google will slow the obsessive need of people to make an “App” for their company/whatever.

At work they are discussing getting an app made, but the only thing it would do is display the same information that is already on the _Mobile Friendly_ website. What is it with everyone **needing** to have an App. I’ve seen “Apps” where it’s just a web browser that only loads their website.

I’m hoping that Google forcing more sites to go mobile friendly will discourage these unnecessary “Apps”

Everyone in the School District I work for is all like:  
“Hey great job on the new _(mobile friendly)_ website. Is the district going to be getting a phone app?”

Might as well just spit in my face and tell me the website isn’t good enough.

Sometimes I really just want to reply:  
“Yeah, actually we have a few, on android its called _Chrome_ and on Apple devices its called _Safari_”

To make “_that pointy arrow_” you click the reply button at the bottom of their post, instead of the reply button at the bottom of the page 😉

I’m with you; many mobile sites I visit are unusable.
