      I think it depends on the theme you are using. For instance, am using ‘hueman’ theme and think is mobile friendly. But one issue about my theme is that it doesn’t post a featured image from my post to Facebook page. That is what am trying to correct. So try to experiment with themes, ask online and try the suggestion given
