Native AMP Support in Astra
AMP gives a faster page loading experience on the mobile web. Your website pages will load on mobile devices without delay. AMP enables stripped-down web pages for faster loading on mobile devices but restricts the HTML, CSS, and JS.
AMP is an open-source project for the betterment of the future web on mobile devices. It was an initiative by Google. It was recommended to use AMP pages to improve the user experience on mobile devices.
Are AMP still relevant?
Recent developments and Google algorithm updates have shown that AMP is no longer a ranking factor. Google updated the algorithm in 2021, and now the Core Web Vitals are essential for ranking. Even some big websites have already phased out AMP, as website development now includes responsive mobile-first designs.
It makes the AMPs a redundant technology that may soon get discontinued. For new websites not using AMP, it is recommended to focus on Core Web Vitals to improve the user experience on desktop and mobile devices.
AMP Support in Astra
Astra has provided and maintained AMP support for years. It helped using AMP effortlessly by providing native support to take care of allowed CSS, HTML, or JS. This helped AMP pages look much more similar to the Non-AMP / Original design.
Important Note: Due to JS and CSS restrictions by AMP, some of the Astra theme and Astra Pro settings did not work, such as Above and Below Header, Scroll to Top, Sticky Header, Mega Menu, Search Styles, Site Builder Layouts, Infinite Scroll, Toggle button styles, etc.
As of now, Astra does not support AMP, and you may see the notice similar to the screenshot shared below:
Please review the note below for more details about the removal of AMP Support in Astra.
Note:
After careful consideration and evaluation of the evolving web standards, we have decided to discontinue our support for AMP. This decision is in line with Google’s shift in focus to Core Web Vitals, which have become a more prominent factor in determining website performance and user experience.
As you may be aware, AMP was initially introduced as an initiative to enhance mobile page loading speeds and improve overall user experience on mobile devices. However, Google’s recent updates and advancements in web technologies, including the introduction of Core Web Vitals, have led us to reevaluate our approach.
Core Web Vitals, which include metrics such as loading speed, interactivity, and visual stability, have become the new standard for measuring website performance. By prioritizing Core Web Vitals, we aim to ensure that your websites built with the Astra theme continue to provide exceptional user experiences and meet the latest industry standards.
Rest assured, this change will not impact your current websites built with the Astra theme. They will continue to function without any disruption. We just won’t be providing any further support or development for AMP further.
We understand that some of you may have relied on AMP for specific requirements, and we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. However, we firmly believe that this shift in focus will benefit the majority of our users by aligning our products with the latest industry standards and delivering optimal website performance.
Thank you for your continued support and understanding. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to our support team, who will be more than happy to assist you.
To improve the user experience on mobile and Core Web Vitals, you may focus on website speed. Astra is already a responsive theme, allowing responsive customization for a mobile-first experience.
Here are some guides that you may follow to ensure the website loads quickly on all devices:
