| Please consider making a mobile-friendly version of the site. I really love Bricklink,
but the browsing experience is absolutely terrible on a mobile device. E.g. constantly
having to zoom in/out to interact with the website is extremely painful from
a UX perspective.
Alternatively (or in addition to the above suggestion), consider developing a
mobile app. That would be awesome!!
Thank you for your consideration.

| I cannot figure out why someone would try to use Bricklink on a phone. A tablet
maybe, but even the biggest phone screens wouldn't be enough to make good
use of this site in any form.

It depends what you are buying. If just minifigures, then a normal to larger
smart phone screen would be fine if there was a decent interface. Similarly,
if buying from an already set up wants list, a smaller screen is fine.

I use my tablet to pull orders and its meh, could be better, but I've used
my phone to check prices or sell rates when in a store sometimes and its awful.
I end up just doing "lego" + "set number" + "bricklink" in google to just skip
straight to the entry. It's faster to do it that way then through the BL
site, on my old phone at least.

There is actually a mobile version

It is rather basic though.

| Have you tried Brickbiz?
It's a really easy and simple app that bolts straight in to Bricklink. Kyan
Lim developed it down here in Perth and i love it. the premium version is the
way to go - perfect for store owners. You still use a computer from time to time
but i do all my orders direct from the app. Never had a problem. Only Apple devices
unfortunately.
