John Muller recently said that those who are going to get impacted by the shift will receive warning and guidelines within their GoogleSearch Console accounts so that they can resolve the issues before the changes take place.<br \/>\n&#8220;We will inform people when we get closer when we actually have a date, so there is sufficient<br \/>\ntime for people to kind of resolve issues that they may need to resolve. We\u2019ll try to also inform sites where we recognize issues, so if we recognize that maybe your mobile version doesn\u2019t have all of the same content or markup that your desktop version has then we\u2019ll try and let you know about that through Search Console as well, so that you kind of are aware of these issues and kind of have time to resolve them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>New TestMySite Tool<\/h2>\n<p>Google has also introduced a new tool using which you can check the mobile friendliness of your website: <a href=\"https:\/\/testmysite.withgoogle.com\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/testmysite.withgoogle.com<\/a>.
