Automatically change the user agent after specified period of time to a randomly selected one, thus hiding your real user agent
User-Agent is like a secret code your browser shares with every website you visit. It reveals details about your browser, your operating system, and even some plugins you have installed. Essentially, it's your browser's fingerprint!
But here's the thing - sometimes you don't want to leave such a clear trail behind. That's where this extension comes in!
🚀 We created this extension to shield your online privacy and make it super easy to appear as if you're browsing from different devices.
With this extension, your User-Agent string gets automatically swapped out with a randomized one at regular intervals. You can also manually set your User-Agent if you prefer. And guess what? It's super light on your system resources, so you won't even notice it's there.
Plus, you're in control! You can customize which browsers and operating systems you want to emulate. We've even got an exceptions list for those special cases.
And the best part? It keeps you safe from sneaky JavaScript tricks designed to uncover your identity. Best of all, it's completely free and ad-free. Give your online privacy a boost today!

- (2023-09-06) Антон Ващенко: Хорошее расширение, надеюсь, дальше будет обновляться, улучшаться и вноситься исправления:) Действительно меняет UserAgent и еще, что самое интересное и неожиданное, у меня внезапно на сайте Whoer пропала утечка DNS. Конечно, это прекрасно, только как так вышло?!)) Ваше расширение делает еще какую-то работу помимо той, для которого создано это расширение?
- (2023-08-09) Miron Ystansev (koralx): Расширение стало грузить хром на 100%. Похоже разработчики решили что могут спокойно добавить майнер и никто не заметит....

- (2016-08-14, v:2.0.5) The new permissions are a deal breaker
This is a security-related extension, that asks for blanket permissions to do whatever it wants. "Read and change all your data on websites you visit" ? Nope! Will gladly install once back to sane permissions. - (2016-08-14, v:2.0.5) Вася Молнар: Верните.
Верните возможность вставлять свой USER AGENT при нажатии на иконку вверху. А то каждый раз нужно настройки открывать. Спасибо. - (2016-08-10, v:2.0.3) New Permisisons?
The new permissions requested by the latest version seem to be pretty scary: `Read and change all your data on the websites you visit` Since your overview graphic shows this extension to be open source, I'd love to see the git repo so I can determine for myself if I should let Chrome re-enable this extension or not. Thanks! - (2016-06-21, v:1.5.4) λlτεrηιτγ: Vulnerability?
This extension loads older versions of chrome as a profile, making Chrome tell me to update to stay secure and avoid vulnerabilities. Is this extension actually reverting my browser to an older less secure version? - (2016-05-10, v:1.5.4) Сергей Жигарь: Подмена UA в JavaScript
Прочитал на habrahabr Ваш вопрос по передаче в content.js-инъекцию параметра для функции setupUserAgentHook(UserAgent) Моё решение - в заголовок ответа добавляйте set-cookie:UserAgent=текущий_UA В content.js используйте его для функции setupUserAgentHook и тут же удаляйте. Конечно потенциально возможен конфликт имён куков, но его тоже в принципе можно обойти. - (2016-03-09, v:1.5.4) Chuck Ray: Chrome versions are too old
Hi, Google releases Chromes on a fairly regular schedule. The Chrome UA strings used in the extensions are too old and some websites refuse to load (hangouts.google.com) or display a warning (google.com) that the browser is too old. You could make the Chrome version numbers follow GOogle's release schedule so it looks like the browser isn't 2 years old. You could probably generate them depending on the current date and limit to the 5 or 10 previous versions. If the code is public, I'd be happy to take a look and make a PR.

please contact me [email protected] to discuss the project. thanks. - (2015-11-23, v:1.5.4) KOLESO RU: Блокирует сайт
После установки перестает работать приближение на яндекс картах. https://maps.yandex.ru/ - (2015-09-20, v:1.5.4) paul k: change jQuery requests?
Many Websites also make use of JQuery Browser and OS identification. So that they can override the User-Agent String to determine your data. Example: http://stoimen.com/jquery.client.plugin/ Is it possible to change these querys too? Thx. - (2015-06-30, v:1.5.4) Blade Jack: Auto Change and Import & Export List
Hi, This extension best user agent switcher for chrome. I have two idea, please add. + Auto change user agent every open chrome + Export & Import User Agent List feature. Thanks. - (2015-06-08, v:1.5.4) Desiree Sjouken: netwerk probleem
Hallo, Ik kreeg onderstaande waarschuwings melding van de Random User-Agent. Is hier een oplossing voor of een optie in de extensie om het op te lossen? Waarschuwing: Deze extensie heeft de koptekst voor het verzoek 'User-Agent' van een netwerkverzoek niet kunnen aanpassen, omdat de aanpassing zorgde voor een conflict met een andere extensie (Privacy Extension).
