To parse a user-agent string, paste it above and the browser, rendering engine, operating system and device are identified. This is the quickest way to decode the strings in your server logs when investigating a browser-specific bug.

Frequently asked questions

Why does every user agent start with Mozilla/5.0?

Legacy browser sniffing. In the 1990s servers checked for "Mozilla" before sending modern HTML, so every browser started claiming it. The prefix has been meaningless for decades but removing it would break old sites.
