Z10 and mobile websites

[Lord Anubis]

Is there any way to force the Z10 browser to only open mobile websites. The normal browser opens them so small and unreadable forcing one to expand text. So annoying. Please advise.

I'm not sure if this option exists, but on most browsers on Android, there's an option to change the "user-agent". If you change it to mobile or something in that ilk, then it should open as a mobile site.

Mine is set to mobile but nearly all sites default to Web view and pages are tiny

The web developer has to add a new user-agent to tell the website to use the mobile site for the Z10. Just contact the web developer and ask them to add it.

Have you tried the reading view on the Z10?

BlackBerry deliberately changed the user-agent on the BB10 devices, because otherwise they would have been constrained by the BlackBerry user-agent string, which often forced devices to the mobile sites.
