A must-know guide for mobile

Hiding Elements

If you’d like an element to appear on only one version (desktop or mobile) of a page, you can do this by hiding the element on one version. Click the element and select the Visibility icon in the Properties tab to toggle the visibility.

Note:  Creating completely separate designs on mobile and desktop can slow down the saving/republishing functionality.

Unbounce's Conversion Benchmark Report shows that 83% of landing page traffic comes from mobile devices, yet mobile pages are converting nearly 8% worse than desktop pages—which means there’s serious potential for conversion gains with mobile optimization.

Unbounce makes it easy to showcase your brand and convert more visitors—on any device. Here's everything you need to ensure your mobile landing page is just as high-converting as your desktop one.

Layout assistant

The Layout Assistant helps you quickly set up mobile-responsive designs. You’ll find it in the Properties tab on the right side of the screen

  • Apply it to your entire page, popup, or sticky bar—or just to individual sections.
  • Run it before making manual changes for the best results.
  • Once applied, you can fine-tune the details.
  • Avoid editing elements beforehand, since this can cause small layout issues.

Separating elements

Need a completely different version of an element on desktop vs. mobile? Separate them with these steps:


  1. Duplicate the element.
  2. Rename the duplicate to delink it from the original.
  3. Edit the duplicate without affecting the original.
  4. Hide the version you don’t want shown on each layout.


Note: Creating entirely separate designs for desktop and mobile can slow down saving and republishing.
