Hello Emily,
Thanks for submitting a question about displays and views. It is normal for the mobile layout to display much differently because of the differences in screen sizes between desktop and mobile.
This is not considered wrong or improper. However, if the site’s mobile layout is not what you envisioned, you may need to work on the layout in mobile view first. This might be wise considering search engines are beginning to favor mobile optimized sites.
Is there a specific design option that you are having trouble with in the mobile view?
Best,
Christopher M.
