Genius tip! Thank you!
Another method to request for "Request for Desktop Site" function, is to tap and hold on the reload icon at the far right of the URL address bar. It will also prompt for the same function.
Wonderful video, I just wonder why apple make this so difficult in the first place. Thank You.

This is great - I have often wondered how to get there, but never knew about this option. Thanks much, I really enjoy you tips and find them very useful.

Can I use this method to check my Apple Mail from an Android phone? Or is there another way since Apple seems to have blocked the generic Android Mail app from accessing Apple Mail?
Nate: Yes. Try it. But also note that you can set up your Android email app to get your iCloud email. Apple even has a page about it: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202304
As ectan says, tap and hold the Refresh icon in the URL bar and you'll see the option to "Request Desktop Site" at the bottom.
I did this successfully on my iPhone 7, but was unable to pan around the screen to accomplish tasks. I was trying to generate an app specific password, but was unable to do this as I couldn't pin, zoom, or pan. I tried my iPhone in both orientations, but that didn't help. I had a similar experience trying to pan or pinch on my iPad. I effectively couldn't accomplish anything within iCloud Settings on my iPad. Do you have any ideas on this, Gary? Thanks.
Larry: It is tough to do on an iPhone. Looks like the current site code doesn't let you zoom or pan for some reason. Hopefully they will update to fix that.
Great tip - this has been annoying me for ages! Thanks
