Add a Viewport Metatag – Viewport Meta tags delivers information to search engines that your web page is optimized for mobile browsers which will prioritize them over websites with no such tags. You can find a listing of all viewport sizes here.
Add an Apple icon – An Apple Icon is the graphic element that will be shown when a user saves your website on their home screen in iOS.
