Google testing new non-mobile friendly web search icon

Google is in the process of testing a new search result icon that helps people quickly identify websites that aren’t mobile-friendly. A few months back, the search giant started taking action against sites that weren’t properly optimized for smartphones and this new notification icon appears to be part of the company’s focus on mobile web browsing.

The feature work with Android and iOS devices, however results may vary based on your location.
