Navigation Locations
Some navigation elements are different for mobile devices than for desktop computers. We use the term “desktop” loosely to refer to any device with a larger screen. This could be a laptop or even a large tablet. The primary difference is the footer navigation on mobile moves to the top right of the page when viewed on desktop (additional menu items are displayed for desktop).
Mobile Navigation
The mobile Menu bar consists of the following icons and appears at the bottom of the mobile screen:
