That's probably comic sans. Due to it being a Microsoft font, iirc, it's not available on mobile, so it's substituted with something else. 

 

Edit: Here's a thread where this was mentioned.

As mentioned, Comic Sans isn't available on mobile (or, afaik, MacOS, Linux or ChromeOS), so your browser falls back to the closest font that it does have - in the case of comic sans, that's quite a different font, but normally it's not particularly noticeable.
