In SharePoint 2013, when ever a request comes from a mobile devices then it will automatically redirect to a different page (mblwp.aspx). The page is presented in _layouts\Mobile\mblwp.aspx.

If you want to disable the redirection then we need to modify in the web.config file.

First Open web.config file of the SharePoint web application and inside <system.web> write below lines of code:

<browserCaps>
<result type="System.Web.Mobile.MobileCapabilities, System.Web.Mobile, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"/>
<filter>isMobileDevice=false</filter>
</browserCaps>

Now automatic mobile redirection will be disabled.
