Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

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/.

Does what is advertised. However, I normally only use this extension to force sites into mobile when my current Chrome window is using half of the screen. It would be nice to have the extension detect the size of the window and automatically enable itself if it is, for example, 1024x768 or smaller.

It's good, but has a tendency to lock up the browser. Chrome gets stuck "waiting for extension" which make me have to restart the browser on Windows 7 latest Chrome (prod).

Causes gmail not to load. Gets stuck on the loading screen. Disabled all of my extensions one at a time and found that this was the extension causing this problem.
