Easiest way to create media queries for multiple devices

I am doing updates to my personal website and giving it a completely new layout. I have been working with SASS and converting it to CSS. I want my site to display on any device that the user might be using (i.e laptop, iPad, mobile phone). Currently, I have been writing my SASS/CSS using media queries to target each different device. As there are so many different to deceives, I was wondering if there is an easier way to write style for each device without having to target them individually?
#media screen and (width: 375px) and (orientation: portrait) {
button,
#submit,
a.button {
font-size: 18px;
width: 200px;
height: 50px;
}
}
#media screen and (max-width: 414px) and (orientation: portrait) {
button,
#submit,
a.button {
font-size: 18px;
width: 200px;
height: 50px;
}
}
These media quires might help you
// Extra small devices (portrait phones, less than 576px)
// No media query since this is the default in Bootstrap
// Small devices (landscape phones, 576px and up)
#media (min-width: 576px) { ... }
// Medium devices (tablets, 768px and up)
#media (min-width: 768px) { ... }
// Large devices (desktops, 992px and up)
#media (min-width: 992px) { ... }
// Extra large devices (large desktops, 1200px and up)
#media (min-width: 1200px) { ... }
A good approach to writing CSS is to use the mobile first principle. It means you start off from the smallest screen and work your way up. This means that your cascade (the C part of CSS) works to it's fullest potential. After you have small, medium and large looking good, start to work on the "weirder" sizes.
For example, mobile landscape size:
#media only screen and (min-device-width: 320px) and (max-device-width: 812px) and (orientation: landscape) {
code goes here
}
This should make everything more manageable.
Here is my media queries that support major multiple devices.
Supported Devices: Moto G4, Galaxy S5, Pixel 2, Pixel 2 XL, iPhone 5/SE, iPhone 6/7/8, iPhone 6/7/8 Plus, iPhone X, iPad, iPad Pro, Surface Duo, Galaxy Duo
`#media only screen and (max-width: 280px){
}
#media only screen and (min-width: 281px) and (max-width: 320px){
}
#media only screen and (min-width: 321px) and (max-width: 360px){
}
#media only screen and (min-width: 361px) and (max-width: 500px){
}
#media only screen and (min-width: 501px) and (max-width: 800px){
}
#media only screen and (min-width: 801px) {
}`

Non-matching media query overriding default styles

I have looked at similar questions here and did not find a suitable answer, so forgive me that this question may appear at first to be a duplicate of others here.
My screen resolution is 1366px wide
I have default styles, and then several media queries at the end of the stylesheet, in the following order:
#media only screen and (max-width:1920px) {
}
#media only screen and (max-width:1680px), only screen and (max-device-width: 1680px) {
}
#media only screen and (max-width:1280px), only screen and (max-device-width: 1280px) {
}
#media only screen and (max-width:1024px), only screen and (max-device-width: 1024px) {
}
#media only screen and (max-width: 800px), only screen and (max-device-width: 800px) {
}
#media screen and (min-device-width: 768px) and (max-device-width: 1024px){
}
On my machine, the styles from the very first media query (max-width: 1920px) are being applied. When I inspect in Firebug, it gives me the line # coinciding with a declaration within that first media query.
This is happening across several browsers (Firefox, Chrome)
But, my viewport is just 1366px wide - so, I would expect either max-width:1280px or max-width:1680px to match, and not 1920px.
When I resize to 1024x768, or 800x600, the correct media query styles are applied.
What am I doing wrong?
I've looked for any missing bracket closures and found none. I've validated using the W3C CSS validator service, and checked as Correct, no errors found.
The issue is your logic.
Your first query states max-width: 1920px. Indeed, because your desktop is at 1366px, it is smaller than 1920px, so it is a valid query. Consider this a catch all after your 1680px.
I would suggest re-ordering and starting with smallest, most constraining queries first:
#media screen and (min-device-width: 768px) and (max-device-width: 1024px){
}
#media only screen and (max-width: 800px), only screen and (max-device-width: 800px) {
}
#media only screen and (max-width:1024px), only screen and (max-device-width: 1024px) {
}
#media only screen and (max-width:1280px), only screen and (max-device-width: 1280px) {
}
#media only screen and (max-width:1680px), only screen and (max-device-width: 1680px) {
}
#media only screen and (max-width:1920px) {
}
An even better approach would be to use min-width for all of your queries:
#media screen and (min-device-width: 768px) and (max-device-width: 1024px){
}
#media only screen and (min-width: 800px), only screen and (min-device-width: 800px) {
}
#media only screen and (min-width:1024px), only screen and (min-device-width: 1024px) {
}
#media only screen and (min-width:1280px), only screen and (min-device-width: 1280px) {
}
#media only screen and (min-width:1680px), only screen and (min-device-width: 1680px) {
}
#media only screen and (min-width:1920px) {
}
As a best practice, here is Bootstraps queries:
/*==================================================
= Bootstrap 3 Media Queries =
==================================================*/
/*========== Mobile First Method ==========*/
/* Custom, iPhone Retina */
#media only screen and (min-width : 320px) {
}
/* Extra Small Devices, Phones */
#media only screen and (min-width : 480px) {
}
/* Small Devices, Tablets */
#media only screen and (min-width : 768px) {
}
/* Medium Devices, Desktops */
#media only screen and (min-width : 992px) {
}
/* Large Devices, Wide Screens */
#media only screen and (min-width : 1200px) {
}
/*========== Non-Mobile First Method ==========*/
/* Large Devices, Wide Screens */
#media only screen and (max-width : 1200px) {
}
/* Medium Devices, Desktops */
#media only screen and (max-width : 992px) {
}
/* Small Devices, Tablets */
#media only screen and (max-width : 768px) {
}
/* Extra Small Devices, Phones */
#media only screen and (max-width : 480px) {
}
/* Custom, iPhone Retina */
#media only screen and (max-width : 320px) {
}
You want to use min-width not max-width. Since you're query is applying to any screen up to 1920px wide, it is always being applied when your screen is no larger than 1366px wide. max-width == <=, min-width == >=.
/* apply these selectors when the width is equal to or greater than 1920px */
#media only screen and (min-width:1920px) {
}

Twitter Bootstrap 3 Media queries

If suppose my device width is 800px, which media query will apply (execute)?
#media only screen and (min-width : 320px){
}
/* Extra Small Devices, Phones */
#media only screen and (min-width : 480px){
}
/* Small Devices, Tablets */
#media only screen and (min-width : 768px){
}
/* Medium Devices, Desktops */
#media only screen and (min-width : 992px){
}
/* Large Devices, Wide Screens */
#media only screen and (min-width : 1200px){
}
If i write the css for the device having screen size is between 768px to 991px and i declare it's css in the media query
#media only screen and (min-width : 768px){
}
then first two media queries will also gets applied how to avoid this.
You can use this three media query for 800px of width
based on your option
#media only screen and (min-width : 320px){
}
/* Extra Small Devices, Phones */
#media only screen and (min-width : 480px){
}
/* Small Devices, Tablets */
#media only screen and (min-width : 768px){
}
#screen-xs-max: 767px;
#screen-sm-min: 768px;
#screen-sm-max: 991px;
#screen-md-min: 992px;
#screen-lg-min: 1200px;
#screen-md-max: 1199px;
//xs only
#media(max-width: #screen-xs-max) {}
//small and up
#media(min-width: #screen-sm-min) {}

one viewport not working in css

I have four viewports set up for a site, as follows:
#media only screen and (min-width : 769px) {
...
}
#media only screen and (max-width: 768px) {
...
}
#media only screen and (max-width: 480px) {
...
}
#media only screen and (max-width: 320px) {
...
}
and have declared the viewport meta with meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width"
All the code works fine except for 320px. Even when I am just resizing in the browser, when the width is 320px the css is for the 480px width.
Not sure where the error is (feel free to upload the code to a jsfiddle) but you could make it bullet-proof by being specific about max/min sizes for each media query.
#media only screen and (max-width: 320px) {
...
}
#media only screen and (min-width:321px) and (max-width: 480px) {
...
}
#media only screen and (min-width:481px) and (max-width: 768px) {
...
}
#media only screen and (min-width : 769px) {
...
}

Multiple media queries for different screen sizes

I'm trying to set different image sizes according to the screen resolution, some of them work and some don't. Here's my Code:
#media screen and (max-width: 1280px) {#gallery-1 img {width:375px;}} // for 1280px screens
#media screen and (min-width: 1366px) and (max-width: 1439px){#gallery-1 img {width:375px;}} // for 1366px screens
#media screen and (min-width: 1440px) and (max-width: 1599px) {#gallery-1 img {width:428px;}} // for 1440px screens
#media screen and (min-width: 1600px) and (max-width: 1919px) {#gallery-1 img {width:434px;}} // for 1600px screens
#media screen and (min-width: 1920px) {#gallery-1 img {width:540px;}} // for 1920px screens
The code is not working at all for the 1366px and 1280px x 600px screen. 1280px x 960px works with the code for the 1366px. 1280px x 1024 works with the code for the 1440px. Can anybody please help? Thank you!
you don't need to set a maxwidth on your media queries as the next media query overrides it anyway. Try this:
#gallery-1 img {
width:375px;
}
#media screen and (min-width: 1366px) {
#gallery-1 img {width:375px;}
}
#media screen and (min-width: 1440px) {
#gallery-1 img {width:428px;}
}
#media screen and (min-width: 1600px) {
#gallery-1 img {width:434px;}
}
#media screen and (min-width: 1920px) {
#gallery-1 img {width:540px;}
}
Instead of using
#media screen and (min-width: 1366px) {
/* Styles go here */
}
Use media query differently like
#media (max-width: 1366px) and (min-width: 1441px) {
/* Styles go here */
}
this thing will specifically call out in which limit which styles should be applied.
