878132 - Foursquare serves desktop site to Firefox OS

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Web Compatibility :: Mobile, defect)

Description

[Hubert Figuiere [:hub]]

Foursquare show desktop site on Firefox OS.

Go to "foursquare.com" on b2g. You get a giant unfriendly web page.

Got to "foursquare.com" on Firefox for Android, you get a mobile stuff with a giant ad for their app download. The login leads to a mobile friendly site.

Thanks Hubert, we're pushing a fix to foursquare to detect Firefox OS and treat it as a mobile device.

Setting to [sitewait] as Mike is here on the ticket.

This is still an issue. Note that with the Firefox for Android ($FFA) UA, you get a 302 to "/download" while you're sent to the desktop page for Firefox OS. I'm not sure we want to end up on the same download page, though... it links to a bunch of native apps.

Is there a simple mobile friendly site?
