Q: iOS Safari full time Desktop and Reader modes

Just throwing this out there in hopes of getting people interested...two things:

 

1) I would love to see an option to always request the desktop version of a website on my iPad (and iPhone), persistently, so I would never have to see another mobile optimized website again.  They're driving me nuts.  When the iPad first debuted, it was designed for the best mobile browsing experience on desktop websites, and it was, until mobile versions took over the net.  I'd like to bring that back by always requesting the desktop version without first having to load the mobile version.

 

2) I'd love to have an option to stay in Reader mode until the Reader button is tapped again to turn it off.  Any website that Safari can display in Reader mode should be displayed in Reader mode.  It's the best Adblock ever and makes the experience so much better.

 

So please, if this sounds good to you, tell Apple about it with a feature enhancement request at  http://www.apple.com/feedback

 

thanks!

iPad Mini, iOS 8.1.1

    Perhaps the most helpful thing to do is treat customers respectfully.  Why don't you file the feedback for us and reply with a link so we know you really do care.

    I don't get it. You're a customer (user) with a suggestion to improve a product, I'm a user (customer) trying to help other users with problems. And you're telling me how to do my unpaid, voluntary "job"? If you, and others, post the feedback Apple can see the level of interest in this change. And there's no way to link the feedback form to prove that we've done it for you.

    Cheers, Di

    I am not an Apple employee. We here are all volunteers.

    I am treating you with "polite disrespect" based on your postings to my friends, and now me. I need no instruction on what "I should do or not do." You apparently are not taking advice well.

    I will not repeat your suggestions to Apple's Feedback, as I may or may not agree. I do not understand to what "link" you might refer.

    You appear to think that we are Apple employees. We are not. We do not get paid. We are customers just like you.

     

    We offer our time and knowledge voluntarily to help other users. It might help for you to read the ToU:
