A User-Agent string is the dense line a browser sends to identify itself, and it has grown into a thicket of names and version numbers that hides the one detail you actually want. Paste one in and this pulls out the browser, its version, the operating system and the device type in plain language.

Good to know

User-Agents can lieThe string is sent by the client and is trivial to fake, so treat it as a hint, never as proof of who is visiting.
They are deliberately messyFor history reasons most browsers still carry words like Mozilla and Gecko that have nothing to do with them; the parser sorts out what matters.
Versions are being frozenFor privacy, modern browsers increasingly freeze or trim the version they report, so the number can be less precise than it once was.
Prefer feature checksTo decide what a browser can do, testing for the feature itself is more reliable than parsing the User-Agent.
