You can use something like this: https://github.com/gregmuellegger/django-mobile The idea is to detect mobile device in middleware (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/http/middleware/).

So, if middleware detects that request going from mobile device, and user requested the normal version of the site, you can redirect him to mobile version of the site.
