To access websites like a mobile device on your iPad, you can switch to mobile mode in Safari. This feature allows you to view websites as if you were browsing on a mobile phone.
Switching to mobile mode is a simple process.
To do this, tap the "aA" icon in the top right corner of the Safari browser and select "Request Desktop Site" from the menu. This will load the website in its desktop version.
Accessing Websites
To access websites in mobile mode on your iPad, you can configure Safari to load all sites in mobile mode by default. This is ideal if you don't have a keyboard or mouse set up on your iPad.
To do this, open the Settings app, go to Safari, and then select the Settings for Websites section. Tap the Request Desktop Website option and turn off the switch next to All Websites.
Safari will continue to open sites in mobile mode until you go back to the Request Desktop Website setting within Settings > Safari and turn on the switch next to All Websites.

If you've manually configured specific sites to open up in mobile view, you'll see them listed separately under Other Websites within the same setting page. Just turn off that respective switch so that from now all of your sites will appear based on their desktop version instead of getting automatically adjusted by mobile settings.
To load a specific website in mobile mode permanently, regardless of the tab you're on, open the ᴀA menu, and then tap Website Settings. On the Website Settings sheet, turn off the switch next to Request Desktop Site and tap Done to apply your changes.
Safari will automatically refresh the website and relaunch it in mobile mode, and it will continue to do so, even when you launch the site in other tabs.
