Something like that. Be specific about what you're advertising there.<br>

<br>But - and here I agree with Otto - it is the mobile-friendly or mobile-ready that is the key as to what people are looking for.<br><br>And pure responsive design - with its flexible-width, rearranging content on different resolutions, special mobile menus, etc, can be achieved with % and @media. But that is not the only to be mobile friendly. It also possible to be very device specific using user agents, and that is a reasonable design paradigm as well. So a term like "mobile-friendly" would not only convey the feature, but would allow for different ways to do that. The responsive guidelines I gave earlier are not user agent oriented, but I could easily conceive of a theme that has very specific support for iOS or Android, or whatever that is really not "responsive".<br>
<br>But in any case, I think it is time to add an unambiguous tag for responsive/mobile support. (I don't think "adaptive" is that obvious.)<br><br>Bruce Wampler<br>
