If you have a need to view pages in mobile mode on your computer there is a easy way to do this that doesn't involve installing extensions or add ons! This is a great way to play mobile browser games like Ameba games if your device keeps crashing when you play like mine does.

What you will need is Google Chrome browser. If you don't have it I highly recommend it! Have Chrome open and go to the site you wish to go mobile view on or any website it doesn't matter. Now open the menu (icon on toolbar with 3 horizontal lines) > Tools > Developers Tools.

This will open up box on the lower half of your browser. Do not worry what all it is. You need to open the Settings which is the cog icon on the top right side of this Developers Tools box. This will open a new window box and Generals showed show up. You should see "Appearance" and under it make sure "Show 'Emulation' view in console drawer." is checked. If it is close out by clicking the X on the top right corner of this box. Now next to the cog icon is an icon that looks like >= but with three lines. The one the Emulation has mentioned in Settings if you've read it. Click on it and it will open a lower box. In this lower box you will find Emulation. Click on it and there is a drop menu of all different types of devices. Choose whichever one you want to emulate and the page you're on will change into that mobile view. It will be small but you can lower the Developer Tools by hovering your over till you see a double arrow icon. Click and drag it down to lower it and the mobile screen should be bigger.

Do not close out of the Developers Tools unless you want to close mobile mode!
Hope this helped.
