FAQ

Q: How does browser detection work?

When a browser makes a network request, it sends a User-Agent string in the HTTP headers containing the browser name, version, and OS. This tool parses that string and combines it with data from the JavaScript Navigator API to produce a comprehensive result.

Q: How accurate are the results?

Results are accurate in the vast majority of cases. However, some browsers or extensions may spoof the UA string, which can cause the detected browser to differ from the actual one — this is expected behavior.

Q: Is my privacy protected?

Yes. This tool reads and displays information locally within your browser only. No user data is uploaded or stored at any point.

Q: Does it work on mobile devices?

Absolutely. Open this tool in any mobile or tablet browser and it will detect the full set of browser properties for your device.
