Design issues for converting websites to mobile sites and apps: A case study
Ajay Bandi, Abdelaziz Fellah · 2017
Using mobile devices to access websites has been on the increase in recent years. It has been a challenging task for designers to develop websites that conform to mobile device environment. To address these issues, we reviewed related literature on the development of websites, mobile sites, and mobile apps. We came up with a taxonomy of the major factors that affect the conversion of a website into a mobile site or mobile app. Based on our taxonomy, we used two websites as case studies, addressing design issues during conversion and recommending appropriate GUI components to be used not only in the content of the original website but also in both mobile sites and mobile apps.
