Hmm. Not sure. Here's what a search turned up. Take your pick. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=websites+f...&t=ffsb&ia=web

In Chrome > Developer Tools (F12), there is an icon, Toggle device toolbar, that resizes the viewport to those devices it knows.
You can also edit and create your own entries.
It does not pretend to be that device or specific browser, just its screen size.
Acorn
Acorn - installed Xara software: Cloud+/Pro+ and most others back through time (to CC's Artworks). Contact for technical remediation/consultancy for your web designs.
When we provide assistance, your responses are valuable as they benefit the community. TG Nuggets you might like. Report faults: Xara Cloud+/Pro+/Magix Legacy; Xara KB & Chat
Read my issue with the new iPhones and latest andriod viewing horizontally on dear xara.
If you are doing a site here and there then the suggestion from Acorn above is a good start, but if you are doing this for clients then you need to have an iOS phone, an iPad and and Android phone and Tablet at the very least. There is no substitute for the real thing (with all of their own little foibles). You do not have to test every single break point and every single device but the four I have mentioned plus obviously a desktop/laptop work great.
It's important to have real devices to test with, but it's also important to test across multiple device widths.
I would say that picking a few device size emulations is OK, but varying the browser width on the desktop can be a very useful tool and the quickest way to spot issues.
Behad's problem seems to be because the display does not automatically scale to the device width and the breakpoints on Xara templates don't fit well with every device - specifically the iPhone XR.
If I am wrong about this, please correct me.

Yes your correct I was just at the apple store to test this problem out and it still remains an issue.
Hello,
One tool that I have found useful is the Opera mobile emulator. It is a browser-specific desktop app, but it has nice controls for different phones.

This is the official download site. I don't advise that anyone uses third-party download sites.
