The theme is not a true "Responsive" theme - Simplicity | Forum

This needs to be fixed, this is the flag ship default theme. when you view the default theme on a mobile device you cannot see the entire site without scrolling around,.. it's really annoying. This theme otherwise is great,.. this just needs to be addressed though.


Please fix and update! Thanks!

For those who actually want to view this theme on a phone properly,..

Edit:
**/ow_themes/simplicity/master_pages/html_document.html


Change

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1, user-scalable=0">


To this

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=0.5, user-scalable=yes">

This is a damn shame,.. this is a beautiful theme,.. to bad it's not responsive :(

It works, yes. But you have to zoom on every page load :)

"initial-scale=0.5" check this...

This works well on mine. It will allow the user to zoom out to the 1:1. The big problem was the message box being pushed up by the mobile keyboard, and the drop down notification boxes going off the screen, and not being able to zoom. Everything fits with this.
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=0.7, maximum-scale=1, user-scalable=yes">

Of course I'm using the Samsung Note 4 which has a bigger screen. The 0.5 looked okay on mine as well. Simplicity definitely needs the user to be able to zoom in or out to see all of some of the elements.
