 **Important:​** Your rewrite rules must exactly match your backend'​s mobile detection. If these do not match, you may run into the issue where your rewrite rules think that a device is mobile while the backend does not and visa-versa. This can cause, for example, the desktop version of a page to be cached and flagged as the mobile version which will then be wrongly served to all mobile viewers. **Important:​** Your rewrite rules must exactly match your backend'​s mobile detection.
