Margins and padding have been reduced
DEECD Requirement
DEECD Guideline
Space is limited on the display screens of mobile devices. While it is necessary to make the content usable by provicing enough whitespace for users to differentiate between and interact with screen components, too much padding and margins that are too wide use up this valuable resource.
Requirement
Margins and padding have been reduced
Recommendation
Conside the trade off between readability with whitespace and providing the required content to the user.
Checking Tool
View the page in a mobile device and look at the padding and margins between elements on the page.
