What is my user agent

The user-agent string this browser sends. It is not your IP address, and it is not stored.

How to read this

The string names a browser, an engine, and an operating system. It does not name an IP address, a person, or a city. An iPad in desktop mode can send a Mac user-agent, so a macOS label means the browser reported macOS.

What leaves this tab

The string is read in this tab. Copy stays on the clipboard you choose. It is not uploaded.

FAQ

What is a user-agent string?

A line the browser sends with requests. It names the browser, the engine, and the operating system.

What does it not contain?

Not your IP address, your name, or a city.

Why can Chrome's string look reduced?

Chrome often sends a reduced string, so the minor version may not match the browser's own About box.

Can I copy it for a bug report?

Yes. Copy the string and paste it into the report. This page does not send it anywhere.

Does changing the string make me private?

No. Changing the string is not a privacy tool. An iPad in desktop mode can also send a Mac user-agent, so a macOS label means the browser reported macOS.
