Is there a way to force the mobile version of google without having the use mobile versions of pages in Android?

Seems Google have changed something and now SWMBO's phone will only show the web version, so she no longer gets the option to use the maps app etc. Even search shows results from the desktop version.

Was fine until the other day she says, then started doing it. Mine uses the search app fine, but desktop when I go to google.co.uk.

At the bottom of the mobile site there's an option of changing it to classic view with all the old options there

Keeps changing back. She gets a new style of mobile site, but only when forcing it to use mobile sites in settings. Otherwise, even using the direct mobile URL it will default to the desktop version.

Tried deleting all the cookies? And web info?

Cleared everything and still the same. Restored browser cookies etc from backup after it not working.
