Mobile devices are becoming increasingly popular for reading emails, so it’s crucial to make sure your emails look great on smaller screens. In this guide, we’ll show you how to edit your email template to ensure it’s mobile-friendly using a drag-and-drop design editor.
How To Make Templates Mobile Friendly? #
To start, navigate to the Email Templates tab inside the Marketing section and create a new email template or open an existing one in your email marketing tool.
Inside your email builder, you’ll find an “Appearances” section indicated by a paint roller. This is where you can customize how your email looks, including its appearance on mobile devices.
Look for the “Mobile Formatting” option or tab within the “Appearances” section and click on it. This is where you can tweak the settings specifically for mobile devices.
Inside the “Mobile Formatting” section, you’ll find various options to change the look of your email on mobile screens. You can adjust things like font size, font style, and alignment.
Note: The changes you make here will only affect how the email looks on mobile devices that support media queries, which are most modern smartphones and tablets.
Once you’ve made your desired adjustments for mobile, don’t forget to save your changes. This ensures that the changes you made for mobile devices are applied to your email template.
To see how your email will appear on mobile screens, you can preview it. After saving the template with your mobile formatting tweaks, look for an option that lets you view the email in a mobile preview. This might be represented by three dots or an icon indicating a mobile preview.
To be certain that your email looks good and functions properly, it’s a good idea to test it on actual smartphones and tablets. Send a test email to yourself or someone you trust and open it on various mobile devices and email apps to ensure everything looks as you intended. These simple steps will result in compelling emails that better adapt to the device your audience is viewing.
