❓ FAQ • Is Mobile FIRST free? Yes. The core simulator is free, and PRO plans unlock advanced features.
• Is it a real iPhone or Android emulator? Mobile FIRST is a simulator: it reproduces device screen sizes, touch scrolling and mobile zoom behavior directly inside Chrome. It doesn't run iOS or Android itself: for 100% validation, launch Live device in one click and test on a real iOS or Android device hosted in the cloud and controlled from your tab.
• Can I compare several devices at once? Yes. Multi-device comparison shows multiple phones and tablets side by side.
• My device isn't in the list. Can I add it? Yes. Create a custom device with any screen resolution and viewport, and save it for later.
• Can I record a demo for a client? Yes. Record your screen in MP4, WEBM or GIF, or take transparent PNG screenshots in one click.
✨ Behind the scenes, Mobile FIRST includes many technical tricks to reproduce the mobile experience as faithfully as possible.

Data source
Covers every Chrome Web Store extension with at least 100 users, found through the store's public sitemap. User counts are read from public listing pages. The 10% most-used extensions are refreshed daily, the next 40% weekly and the next 40% monthly; the least-used 10% are not refreshed. Google displays rounded user counts (and caps the display at 10,000,000+), so small changes may not be visible. Rating counts above 1,000 are rounded (e.g. 1.6K).
