When navigating in your personal PVG-Site you donwload quite large files (e.g. 150kB for 1 Individual, without images). This is normally no problem as internet connections are quite fast today.

But when you try to access the site from a mobile device it takes a long time to display a page. Besides that the sites are optimized for large displays (which is normally perfect), but are almost unreadable on a small mobile device. Besides that the navigation (popup menues etc.) is not easy to use on a mobile device.

I suggest to add support for a mobile device view. I should be very small with only the nescessary information on the pages. I think it's even possible to not have any edit options, just login, show individuals and families (+ sources, ...).

Ciao,
Alex

    As a T-Mobile Wing user, I agree, would be a very nice feature.

    while i can agree with the already posted sentiments, i have to question why someone on a cellphone would be trying to access a "heavy" site like a PVG site?? i have the same "problems" with ohers trying to fly like the big birds on my other domains and this is not limited to my "small stuff"... it is, actually, this day in time (of this post), not limited to PGV sites... actually, it is a "virus" on all standard formated sites... :? :(

    no insult intended to folk in this situation... i'm just pointing out the practicality of the situation/problem :(
