How to Edit the Mobile View in Leadpages (2026)

Knowing how to edit mobile view on Leadpages matters because many visitors, particularly from social media, arrive on a phone. Leadpages pages are responsive out of the box, so columns stack and elements resize automatically, but headings can wrap awkwardly, images can crop and content can land in the wrong order. Each Leadpages editor handles phones and tablets a little differently, so this guide covers the newer app, Page Studio and the Classic Builder in turn.

Which Leadpages Editor Are You Using?

The steps depend on the editor your page was built in. Pages created from New Page on the newer app's Dashboard open in its visual editor. Page Studio and the Classic Builder each have their own Leadpages help article for mobile optimization, and the Classic one opens from Landing Pages with Sections and Layout tabs on the left. If you are unsure, compare your screen with the drag-and-drop editor guide, which shows how the editors differ.

Preview Phone and Tablet Views in the Newer Editor

1. Open the page in the visual editor.
2. Click the device icons in the toolbar to switch between Desktop, Tablet (768 pixels wide) and Mobile (390 pixels wide).
3. Click Preview (Ctrl+F or Cmd+F) to hide the editing tools and try forms, links and animations as a visitor would.
4. Click Exit Preview to go back to editing.

The newer app's editor article documents these previews but does not describe per-device settings or hiding content on a device. If something looks wrong on mobile, simplify the layout (fewer columns, shorter headings, smaller images) or ask AI Chat to adjust the section, then check the mobile view again. When starting a new page with the AI builder, the Mobile-first ad page quick action is designed for pages that will mostly be seen on phones.

Edit the Mobile and Tablet Layout in Page Studio

Page Studio supports true per-device layout editing:

1. Switch to the mobile or tablet view in the builder.
2. Select the element you want to change.
3. Adjust its Layout, Dimensions or Content area settings. These changes apply only to the device you are viewing.
4. Check the other views to confirm desktop is unchanged.

Mobile and tablet settings start linked to desktop. Editing them on a smaller view unlinks them, and Leadpages notes there is no option to sync them back afterwards, so make desktop edits first and fine-tune smaller screens last.

Hide Content on Mobile, Tablet or Desktop

In Page Studio

1. Click the element.
2. Open the Edit panel.
3. Under Layout, click the device icon (desktop, tablet or mobile) to hide the element there. A hidden device's icon turns grey and crossed out.

To bring back an element you hid by mistake, find it in the Layers panel, select it and change its visibility. For mobile-only content with its own styling, duplicate the element, hide the original on mobile and the copy on desktop and tablet, and rename the copy so you can tell them apart.

In the Classic Builder

1. Duplicate the section from its more menu.
2. Open the copy's settings and scroll to Device Specific Display at the bottom.
3. Turn on Hide on Desktop and Hide on Tablet so the copy shows only on phones.
4. Open the original section's settings and turn on Hide on Mobile.
5. Edit the mobile copy freely: shorter text, a smaller image or a different order.

Leadpages warns that buttons or links pointing to page sections may not work correctly across devices when you use device-specific sections, because each device sees a different section. Test any jump links on both versions.

Fix Content That Stacks in the Wrong Order

On phones, multi-column rows stack vertically with the leftmost column first. If an image lands above the text you wanted first, the Classic Builder lets you restructure the row:

1. Hover over the section and click its name in the top-left corner.
2. Click the arrow icon next to the section's Settings label.
3. Expand the row that holds the content.
4. Click +Add, then Add a Column.
5. Drag the content into the new column so it falls after the rest.
6. Preview on mobile to confirm the new order.

The Classic Builder always stacks columns on mobile, with no option for two columns side by side. In Page Studio, the Content area direction setting on containers can be changed for smaller devices instead.

Common Mobile Problems and Quick Fixes

• Faces or text cut off in background images: background images scale to fit each device and may crop. Keep key content out of backgrounds, or use a separate image for mobile.
• Headlines too large: lower the font size in the mobile view (Page Studio), or shorten the headline.
• Forms awkward to fill in on a phone: cut fields to the essentials and make the button full width; the Leadpages forms guide covers form settings.
• Too much scrolling before the form: hide decorative sections on mobile and move the form or call to action higher in the mobile version.
• Tablet layout looks like a stretched phone: check the tablet view separately; Page Studio lets tablet settings differ from both desktop and mobile.
• Site menu crowding small screens: Leadpages sites include mobile navigation, so keep the main menu short; the website guide covers navigation.

Mobile Checklist Before You Publish

1. Check the page in the mobile and tablet previews.
2. Open the published page on a real phone and tap every button and link.
3. Submit the form from the phone and confirm the lead arrives.
4. Make sure the main call to action is visible without much scrolling.
5. After launch, review the desktop, mobile and tablet split in Leadpages analytics and adjust the version most visitors see.

Pages built for social ads are viewed mostly on phones, so the Facebook ad landing pages guide and the Instagram landing pages guide are worth reading alongside this one. If you are just starting out, the Leadpages beginner tutorial covers the full process from sign-up to publishing.
