Is There a Setting to Permanently Use the Desktop Version of Websites?

Hi. It's easier to use the desktop version of a website, instead of the mobile version, especially if you have a fast internet. Is there a permanently way to set iOS 7 to use the desktop version of the website ( www.website.com ) instead of the mobile version ( m.website.com )?


Thank you. Have a great week.


God bless.

It is not a setting in iOS 7. When you attempt to go to a website, the browser sends information that identifies the browser as a mobile browser and the website will automatically redirect you to their mobile site, thinking that will improve your viewing. Check to see if the website has a link to the full site and if they have a setting you can change. Otherwise, there is no setting in iOS or in Safari to change this. The fault is at the website's server end.
