Webpage starts zoomed in on mobile devices
initial-scale=1.0 tells the browser to set the zoom level to normal (i.e. not zoomed in or out). You only need width=1000:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=1000">
I have a mobile website but it loads zoomed out. How can I fix this?
You should insert the Viewport meta tag.
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
This means that the browser will (probably) render the width of the
page at the width of its own screen. So if that screen is 320px wide,
the browser window will be 320px wide, rather than way zoomed out and
showing 960px (or whatever that device does by default, in lieu of a
responsive meta tag).

Webpage starts zoomed out on mobile devices
Some issues I noticed:
The horizontal scrollbar opens when the screen width is reduced after the web page is loaded; This situation is not suitable for responsive design. To avoid this situation, add
overflow-x: hiddento the<body>I used the style.You should use media queries to make a mobile responsive website. In this example I've edited the
<img>element to remove it when the page shrinks.I completely removed the
width: 1100pxstyle you added to the elements. You don't need to use this type to give width to the element.On mobile-responsive websites,
<img>elements are displayed on the new line at100%width; you can implement this idea by using media queries at this stage.
You can visit this link for media query blocks according to the display size of the devices in CSS.
For example, the styles in @media only screen and (max-width: 880px){} are applied when the page size drops below 880px:

</html>Website loads zoomed in slightly on mobile devices despite proper viewport meta tag
For anyone curious I solved it.
Case:
- The landing page had a login,
- iOS would automatically focus on the inputs because the font size was lower than 16px.
- Because it's a single page app the view remained the same.
Solution:
- Make sure your inputs have at least 16px font-size, else iPhone SE and such will zoom in so the text input is more visible.
Mobile devices loads page zoomed in
You set the font size for ".homeintrocontainer .homeintrohead" to 80px and you didn't reduce the font size for mobile devices. Can you reduce this font size and check. Or if you need the same font size, try to add word-break:break-all to the .homeintrocontainer .homeintrohead class.
.homeintrocontainer .homeintrohead {
text-align: center;
padding-bottom: 15px;
font-size: 30px; /*for reference just edited the font size*/
padding-top: 200px;
padding-bottom: 30px;
margin: 0 auto;
word-break: break-all;
}
Why is my responsive site zoomed in on mobile devices?
It looks like your site is hitting a minimum width. I opened it in a browser on my computer and resized the window and the words in the heading seem to be wrapping properly as the page gets smaller and smaller. However, when the window gets too small, they stop wrapping. I suspect this could be caused by a minimum width.
Looking at your css code in your repo, it looks like your grid-template-columns might be the cause of the minimum width. Perhaps this line:grid-template-columns: repeat(3, minmax(150px, 300px));
For viewing the site on mobile, specifically, I would recommend having a single column all the way down the page. It's hard to put multiple columns next to each other on a mobile device such as a phone in portrait orientation without each column becoming "too squished".
iPhone zoomed in on page when opened
Found it. I had put width:100%; and padding:0 10px; on the .wrapper element under @media only screen and (max-width: 600px). Changed it to width:96% and padding: 0 2%;, and it worked like a charm.
Thanks for the help!
Get my website to be zoomed out by default on mobile phones
I know this is an old question, but I am answering anyway in case someone else needs the answer.
As of September 2011, Opera Mini is still using version 2.5 of the Presto rendering engine. Viewport isn't available in Opera until Presto 2.7. (Opera Mobile, our smart phone browser does support viewport.)
Try this:
<meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale=0.25">
When you include width=device-width, the browser 'magically'** finds the content area and adjusts it to fill the width of the device. If you want the background to peek through, you'll need to shrink the entire page to fit within the viewport.
Leaving <meta name=viewport> out entirely will also work, but you will typically see less of the background image.
Ideally, however, you should also use media queries to create a site that works at a variety of widths.
** Using heuristics of some kind that a browser developer would be able to explain better than I can.
