Differences between the mobile and desktop service
We recommend desktop usage wherever possible. We have a huge range of tests and whilst they do work on mobile devices, the user experience of some of our tests, particularly the more in-depth tests, is not as intuitive or even as usable as the desktop user experience.
Service interface

Description of service interface
