I have same URL for both desktop and mobile content, but changes their format according to User-agent.

Google search console is showing error as "Touch elements too close" for some pages which are of desktop version. I do not have these pages on mobile site.

How can I tell google to differentiate between mobile and desktop pages?

If you have the "same URL for both desktop and mobile content, but changes their format according to User-agent" then all pages available to desktop users will also be available for the mobile users.

Google will crawl your desktop site and then determine what happens when viewing those pages from a mobile device. It's the ones which aren't optimised that flag as errors.

The better long-term solution is probably to copy the mobile-friendly styles from optimised pages across everything site-wide. This will give the greatest number of users the best experience on whatever device they use.
