Methodology & Grounded Benchmarks

How is mobile scroll depth calculated?

We model a standard modern smartphone viewport (390px × 844px, like iPhone 15/16) with ~650px usable vertical viewing area. With 16px body copy at 1.6 line-height (~25.6px per line), content height is calculated based on line count and paragraph spacing to estimate the exact number of viewport swipes.

What is mobile scroll fatigue?

Scroll fatigue occurs when a mobile user scrolls through more than 3 to 4 screens of unbroken text without encountering a visual anchor, diagram, testimonial, or conversion button. Over 65% of mobile visitors abandon pages exhibiting high scroll fatigue.
