Mobile preview help

I would like to preview my website on a mobile device, however when i click the preview button the only options that appear are the "preview in browser" options. I have seen in tutorials that there should be a QR code to scan for mobile, but this doesnt not appear. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The Preview on Device function (the QR code to scan) has been discontinued by Adobe.

The best way for you to preview your site on mobile devices would be to...

1. Install a free, local testing server like XAMPP 
2. Place your site's root directory inside the server root folder at C:/xampp/htdocs/(yoursitefolder)
3. Right click your server icon on your desktop and choose Run as Administrator to turn your server on
4. Go to your computer's local IP address followed by the site's root folder name (example: 123.456.789.0/yoursitefolder) from the browser on any device attached to your network and it will be able to see the site as if it were online.

If you don't have a local testing server, simply upload the site to your remote server and check it with mobile devices & browsers.
