Spoofs & Mimics User-Agent strings.

Image from store User-Agent Switcher for Chrome
Description from store Ever needed to quickly switch between user-agent strings on the fly? Developing a site that needs to work on both mobile browsers and desktop browsers? Sick of some archaic site blocking you because you're not using Netscape 4? The User-Agent Switcher for Chrome is the answer. With this extension, you can quickly and easily switch between user-agent strings. Also, you can set up specific URLs that you want to spoof every time. Please note that this does not provide improved privacy while browsing the Internet and that some sites might have other means to figure out that the browser is not what it pretends to be. Running this extension can have performance impact on your browsing experience due to its need to intercept and modify the data communicated to the server. NOTE: if some sites have problems after using a mobile user-agent, and won't switch back no matter what you spoof, you will need to switch the user-agent back to Chrome *and* clear your cookies for the sites to treat the browser normally again. By installing this item, you agree to the Google Terms of Service and Privacy Policy at https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/.

  • (2024-04-01) marcy :3: i'm only using this for my chromebook because of roblox's stupid update on the website making it impossible to use because they dont accomodate for fixing chromebook bugs despite letting it run on it. switching it to Opera makes it work fine, just how i need it to. However, there is an issue, even when i go back to "default" or turn the addon off. It messes up websites with touchscreen, for example, I like to draw on Aggie.io, which is a website you can draw on and draw with other people. This addon breaks touch screen, making it so i cannot zoom in or draw. I have to completely uninstall just so i can use most websites again. So, I will be using this for roblox, but i will have to uninstall and reinstall it a lot for some reason. Oh well. at least it works for the one thing i needed it to work for

Расширение НЕ РАБОТАЕТ - от слова СОВСЕМ!!!!!!!!!!! ВСЕ САЙТЫ ПРОВЕРКИ User-Agent'а ОПРЕДЕЛЯЮТ РЕАЛЬНЫЕ ДАННЫЕ НА 100500% !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • (2023-12-24) Bogdan Mart: Doesn't allow to cahange os (to emulate Windows) Also doesn't allow to input custom string
  • (2023-12-15) aaa zzz: 注意!使用此扩展会导致无法访问开启了cloudflare验证的网站!!!
  • (2023-12-04) Jacky U: It will be nicer if it can support multiple versions of a browser, like Firefox v120.0.q
  • (2023-11-07) Rhea Gutkowski: will be perfect if there is edge instead of ms explorer
  • (2023-11-06) Marc Fleuriet: Ne fonctionne pas, la liste des navigateurs n'est plus à jour depuis très longtemps, le site du développeur est inaccessible : à oublier sans regrets.
  • (2023-11-06) Oskar Mothander: Some crawlers and even our own WAF ommits the User-Agent header completly, this plugin doesn't even allow an empty string or no header at all, seems unnesesary to add such limits, it was the only reason I needed this plugin to be able to test that.
  • (2023-11-01) Oliver Nordfox: Помогло чтобы преодолеть каптчу для ChatGPT, если эмулировать последнюю версию Chrome
  • (2023-10-24) vondetour: Installed it but youtube still blocking me.
  • (2023-10-16) clocked: Works perfectly. You can put in your own strings and it works great. Whatismybrowser.com detected that it was spoofed, but for my purposes it works flawlessly.

  • (2023-06-13) 0‍00‍000: this user agent can work if used correctly. You have to add your own agent if t does not work in certain areas.
  • (2023-06-09) Michail: Помогло в работе при отладке смартфонного сайта. Вбитые по умолчанию UA устарели, поэтому рекомендую вбивать свои из справочников.
  • (2023-06-07) Tony D (Squishy): Absolute trash. I don't know when this was last updated, but all of the user agent strings are extremely old and break all sorts of web sites.
  • (2023-05-31) Thomas Steinert: Not working
  • (2023-05-26) Alexandte RFST: not working
  • (2023-05-06) Blue: As another user less helpfully explained, you can spoof edge on it with very little effort. You must simply right click on the extension, click options, under new user agent name put "Edge" or whatever you want to name your new user agent, under new user agent string put "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/113.0.0.0 Safari/537.36 Edg/112.0.1722.71" or whatever valid string you'd like the user agent to be, put it in a group I decided to create a new group named "Edge" though you may place it in any group, under append? put replace, and finally tag it with what you would like so you know what browser you're spoofing (mine is EDG).
  • (2023-05-04) M Vlady: Меняет user-agent, но не меняет операционную систему, раньше работало корректно.
  • (2023-04-22) M Z: Works like a charm. The only idiots who are complaining are the ones who do not know how to update the useragents themselves.
  • (2023-04-18) Federico SP: It's too old. UPDATE THIS!! Doesn't even have EDGE Browser available
  • (2023-04-08) Debaprasad Mukherjee: Its not working on Google Scholar. Need the mobile view of google scholar search hits pages and mobile view of each individual abstract page of those search hits. Kindly look into this. Its one of the most frequent use cases for academics.
  • (2023-04-05) Curtis Hoareau: Gets the job almost done, i cant seems to chose my own permanent agent spoof option...it would get 5 stars if i could..please update this a little, im so happy to spoof the Edge browser string in Chrome.
  • (2023-03-30) Lukas Vá: No OS options for Chrome. navigator.userAgent still returns the real agent. Doesn't help for testing.
  • (2023-03-30) Ujesh Krishnan: An helpful extension for developers and SEO's. There's only one problem with this extension. The user agents are outdated. I've rectified that issue by adding all new user agents including the new bing and chatGPT. Refer this post to learn how to update this extension with latest user agents. ( https://ujesh.com/user-agent-chrome-extension/ )
  • (2023-03-28) Galaxyted YT: this is actually horrible, i was having captcha issues so i tried this but the user agents are too old and the captcha refuses to load now at all
  • (2023-03-27) Manish Kadu: thank b
  • (2023-03-27) Mhadav Patil: thank b
  • (2023-03-06) Martin Li: This User-Agent Switcher has a big problem, after installed it, could not visit any website using Cloudflare checking!! After click the checking, it always returned a new checking. Pass over a long time investigation, I found it is because of this plugin!
  • (2023-02-21) Tony: This extension is fantastic, the only reason why I am giving three stars is because it needs to be updated since many of the clients are very old (Android only as android kitkat)
  • (2023-02-14) Michael Hoff: Best way to act like your edge to use the updated bing chatgpt. Can add settings in the extension options for edge.
  • (2023-01-27) Herb Zinn: Doesn't work on mobile chrome. Almost all of the user interface is missing.
  • (2023-01-13) Tyler Malo (Tythesly): This extention used to be helpful but it no longer works. They also have not added new agents to match new devices in years.
  • (2023-01-04) 김은진: 삭제가 안됨.
  • (2023-01-01) Advan T2C: it did works, but create troube (loop) with Cloudflare browser check, thus have to be disabled
  • (2022-12-25) Logan brooks: so yes it is an ok extension, but why does it need to read my browsing history?
  • (2022-12-25) Sam Mic: It's kinda ok. Wish that there was an option for the Permanent Spoof List that lets you toggle sub domains. (Example: https://google.com/ gets a different User-Agent, while https://docs.google.com/ doesn't.) If this feature was added, then I would give this a 5 star rating. Thanks!
  • (2022-12-18) smells fishy: it works
  • (2022-12-15) omnom143: works! also gets you unbanned from ome.tv
  • (2022-12-08) Victor Hugo Vlog e Audiovisual: Essa extensão me ajudou a usar o YouTube TV no meu PC (que infelizmente o Google deixa desativado) e controlar pelo meu iPhone
  • (2022-11-27) Maria Jose Baena: Lo queria para que no descargara las imagenes en formato Webp pero ya no funciona las sigue bajando en ese formato en todos los navegadores
  • (2022-02-23) Mark Bennett: Didn't work at all
  • (2022-01-30) Cristian Sosa: Realmente muy útil, ¡debería venir integrado en Chromium/Chrome! Me gusta el hecho de que no solo tiene agentes predeterminados, sino que permite añadir cadenas personalizadas.
  • (2022-01-09) Alessandro Saiko: Für meinen Anwendungszweck einwandfrei (Löschen veralteter PayPal Lieferadressen während des Bezahlvorgangs bei einem beliebigen Onlinehändler durch Wechseln des User Agents auf IE10). Die User Agents sind jedoch nicht aktuell, so fehlt u.a. der IE11.
  • (2022-01-03) bloodys spammers: ⭐💥⭐💥⭐ PLEASE UPDATE AND ADD NEW USER AGENTS FOR EACH BROWSER! 😋🤞🏻🙏🏼💜💚🧡

    Instalei funcionou maravilhosamente bem, até antes de votar com 5 estrelas. De repente começou a ficar lento e daí resolví desinstalar para reinstalar. Agora não consigo instalar, vem uma mensagem de ERRO, pedindo para eu reinicia o navegador e nada resolve mais. O que fazer para consertar isso? Grato.
