In android the site doesn't show all content like image related to thread,in forums page the details (no.of views,replies etc), alerts and inbox switch at corner and a lot of things in the portait mode(less convenient than landscape) but shows almost everything in landscape mode and in landscape mode the MYPF expansion is not complete.
Another major problem is in typing that the auto correct feature doesn't work while typing in this box . Please fix these guys.
I want to see this community as the best physics community in the world.

Can you provide some context? Are you talking about PF as shown on an Android app like tapatalk? or in a mobile browser?

I am talking about Google chrome browser on android device sir.
 
Okay so you're getting the mobile version of PF which is a stripped down version to conserve bandwidth and respect what most mobile devices can display.

@Greg Bernhardt could answer this better.

These things are not supported in the mobile view. Since I use PF on Chrome android, I know this. Simply enable "Request Desktop Site" option from the three dots in the top right corner of the page, and you're good to go!

End of the year we're going to do a full design audit. Many mobile issues will be fixed.
Thanks

This is a feature of your device, not the website. The website doesn't have any auto correction, your operating system should provide that.
