Viewing a Website in Desktop Size on iPad Mini 6

Hello all,


I was using a regular iPad 9 until recently, and I was able to see website pages in Safari in a full desktop size. I very enjoyed it since the desktop views are usually more detailed and has more functionality.


anyhow, on my new iPad Mini 6, I’m not able to view the full sized pages in safari, for some reason. I tried websites like, Facebook and Gmail, and it’s coming up like a mobile view, and not like a desktop view.


Does anyone know how to help me?


Thanks in advance!

First, thank you for your reply!


Second, this is not solving the problem, unfortunately :(

I tried turning on Request Desktop on both iPad 9 and iPad Mini 6, and only on regular iPad, Facebook came up in a desktop view.


The reason I want to use such apps in safari and not on their app is that on safari the functions are much richer than on the apps.
