A practical mobile launch check
Start with the first screen
Load the page with a cold cache and a throttled connection. Identify which file delays the main headline or image.
Make decoration optional
Give canvases a static first frame, pause motion offscreen, and respect reduced-motion preferences. A visitor should be able to read and navigate before animation starts.
Measure the real journey
Test a low-end handset, submit a brief and open a case study. Repeat after a release and compare measurements from the same device and network.
