Mobile View

Hello,

I have an online shop with a range of categories. On the mobile view, I have an issue that the categories are listed horizontally and customers are making it clear that it's not obvious that you can scroll to the right to view additional categories. The image I attached shows a scroll bar but that doesn't show on an actual phone (screenshot from desktop editor).

Does anyone know of alternative setups for the categories on mobile? Dropdown would probably work.

We can show it on 2 or 3 rows, or change it to dropdown.

What do you think? What is shop page url?

See below for the shop url. My guess is that a dropdown would be the most effective. What do you think after looking at the page?

tuanphan - that code was very helpful. It worked well in terms of creating a drop down, however it is located at the bottom of the shop page. Is there any way it can replace the existing mobile navigation at the top of the page?
