Excluding Visualforce Pages from Mobile or Desktop

To display your Visualforce pages only in the Salesforce1 app, add them to the Mobile Cards section of your page layout. To add Visualforce pages to either the Salesforce1 app or the full Salesforce site, use tab and navigation settings.

Visualforce pages that can be configured to be desktop-only or mobile-only include:

  • Pages added as mobile cards on page layouts. These only appear in the Salesforce1 app.
  • Pages added to normal page layouts, when Available for Salesforce mobile apps is disabled for the page. These only appear in the full Salesforce site.
  • Pages used in Visualforce tabs. You add tabs to Salesforce1 navigation separately from adding them to the full Salesforce site navigation.
