FBI.GOV Goes Mobile

June 1, 2012 – The FBI Launched it’s first mobile-friendly website designed specifically for smartphones.

Sub sites like FBIJobs.gov and the Vault (vault.fbi.gov)—along with some pages that are not easily viewable on mobile devices—are not included but can still be viewed on smartphones in the full versions.

Among other features, the mobile site includes:

• Navigation menus that open with a single click;
• An easy-to-use search bar;
• A rotating slider with the latest news; and
• Easily scrollable lists of wanted fugitives and missing kids.
