About useragents.me

Useragents.me was created for web scrapers to give them quick and easy access to a list of the latest and most commmon useragents. Many similar lists have appeared in the past before us, but which have been quickly forgotten about and left to die.

Useragents.me is run and developed by someone working directly in the business of web scraping and who uses the site himself daily. Furthermore it's designed to be self-sustaining, self-updating, and low mantinence — meaning it will be a resource you can trustfully rely on for years.

What can I do with the useragents listed here?

The useragents listed here are most commonly used by web crawlers and web scrapers who want to mask their requests.

How often is the list of most common user agents updated?

The list of most common useragents (both desktop and mobile) is updated every week (specifically, on Sunday nights).

What is my current useragent?

As far as we can see, it's:

What is the difference between the most common and latest useragents listed here?

• The most common useragents list is a list of useragents that were observed accessing a set of sites in a given period of time. If you need to scrape a large number of pages and want your scraping requests to 'blend in', you can likely safely use this list in rotation to be successful.
• The latest useragents list is a list of the absolute latest useragents for a specific browser and device type. If you don't have a large scraping task (and so don't need to rotate useragents), you can likely safely use just one of these.

When should I use a mobile or desktop useragent?

Some sites will give you different content depending on the device you're using, so you should select the user agent with the correct device type for the task.

The User-Agent request header is a characteristic string that lets servers and network peers identify the application, operating system, vendor, and/or version of the requesting user agent .

Warning: Please read Browser detection using the user agent for why serving different Web pages or services to different browsers is usually a bad idea.

Common format for web browsers:

A product identifier — its name or development codename.

Version number of the product.

Zero or more comments containing more details. For example, sub-product information.

Firefox UA string

For more on Firefox- and Gecko-based user agent strings, see the Firefox user agent string reference . The UA string of Firefox is broken down into 4 components:

• Mozilla/5.0 is the general token that says that the browser is Mozilla-compatible. For historical reasons, almost every browser today sends it.
• platform describes the native platform that the browser is running on (Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, etc.) and if it is a mobile phone. Firefox OS phones say Mobile — the web is the platform. Note that platform can consist of multiple " ; "-separated tokens. See below for further details and examples.
• rv: geckoversion indicates the release version of Gecko (such as " 17.0 "). In recent browsers, geckoversion is the same as firefoxversion .
• Gecko/geckotrail indicates that the browser is based on Gecko. (On the desktop, geckotrail is always the fixed string 20100101 .)
• Firefox/firefoxversion indicates that the browser is Firefox and provides the version (such as " 17.0" ).

Chrome UA string

The Chrome (or Chromium/Blink-based engines) user agent string is similar to Firefox's. For compatibility, it adds strings like KHTML, like Gecko and Safari .

Opera UA string

The Opera browser is also based on the Blink engine, which is why it almost looks the same as the Chrome UA string, but adds "OPR/<version>" .

Older, Presto-based Opera releases used:

Microsoft Edge UA string

The Edge browser is also based on the Blink engine. It adds "Edg/<version>" .

Safari UA string

In this example, the user agent string is mobile Safari's version. It contains the word "Mobile" .

Crawler and bot UA strings

Library and net tool ua strings, specifications, browser compatibility.

BCD tables only load in the browser with JavaScript enabled. Enable JavaScript to view data.

Changing Safari Default User Agent

I am pretty new to Mac so be easy.

The website used by the company I work for only runs smoothly with IE. If I don't use IE the pages are jumbled, but if I change the user agent on Safari to IE it works correctly. How can I set it up so that the default user agent when Safari opens a new window or tab will IE. It is annoying to have to constantly change the user agent every time I open a new window or tab when doing work from home.

• In Safari how do I set my cursor to be in the URL bar, not the search engine I am updating the information posted by JNM554 here https://discussions.apple.com/thread/250316292?login=true The default behaviour of Safari when opening a new tab or window is to position your cursor in the search_engine_of_your choice search box. This frustrated me if I know the URL I am after. e.g. I am using google as my search engine, but I know ebay.co.uk is the URL I want, the default behaviour in Safari is to position my cursor in the google search box, not the top search bar. It is easy to fix this, open safari preferences In the general tab change the "New tabs open with:" from Homepage to "Empty Page" Do the same for the "New windows open with:" if that is your desire. I hope this helps others. 934 1

I haven't seen any preference option that will enable IE as default when you open a new window.

    Download Safari Technology Preview(STP) and try as a test.

    Safari Technology Preview is a self standing developer version of Safari with some advanced features.

    Bookmarks will be automatically imported.

    After testing, you can remove it from Applications folder if you wish.

Change the User Agent.

STP will be running concurrently.

Switch to STP when you need it.

Using IE user agent may be easier even with the annoyance.

Have you thought of installing Windows on your Mac?

Then you have to switch between Macintosh HD /macOS and Windows/ Boot Camp partition.

Using the IE user agent is the better option. But why can't I just make it the default user agent?

I want to keep Windows as far away from me as possible. Not to mention I really don't want to spend the money on buying windows just to get rid of this annoyance.

I'll see if that has different settings I can mess around with. Thank you! That solves some of the annoyance if it was just opened as an IE until a new tab gets opened when I click on something still have to change the user agent again for that specific tab. Unless of course STP has some different/additional settings.

Right. Just when I'm in STP and click a link that opens a new tab that tab will as well need to be IE so I will have to go to Develop>User Agent> IE again for that tab. I'm trying to eliminate the need to do that when clicking a link opens a new tab.

Don't close the window or quit STP.

Leave it open, when you need it switch to STP.

Once you close the window or quit STP, it will change to "Default Automatically Chosen".
