- In this example, the user agent string is mobile Safari’s version. It contains the word 'Mobile'. Examples Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 1351 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/13.1.1 Mobile/15E148 Safari/604.1 Internet Explorer UA string Examples.
- Note: Desktop Central currently supports managing Mac OS with Intel Processor. Configuring Mac Agent Settings. Desktop Central has different agents for windows and Mac computers. Mac agents will not be created by default. You can create Mac agents by configuring the settings in the scope of management.
- To elaborate on the risks: On the desktop, a new OS version can come out every 6 weeks (Chrome OS), 6 months (Ubuntu), 1 year (Mac OS), or 2-3 years (Windows). Then you also need to account for OSes released for phones, tablets, gaming consoles, clocks, etc which can have much more frequent release cycles and unpredictable changes in market share.
- On this page you can find user-agent examples and user agent types. Useragent type is linked with operation system and browser. Useragent type is linked with operation system and browser. Linux have different structure of ua then Windows, see useragent example in user-agent table.
Starting and Stopping the Mac Agent. The Mac OS X Agent is started automatically during the system boot process. The operating system will ensure that the Agent is restarted automatically in the event that it crashes or stops functioning. If necessary, the Mac Agent can be started and stopped manually using the launchctl utility.
The User-Agent (UA) string is contained in the HTTP headers and is intended to identify devices requesting online content. The User-Agent tells the server what the visiting device is (among many other things) and this information can be used to determine what content to return. Of course this requires using a device detection solution which translates UAs into understandable software and hardware information.
We go into a lot more detail, and examine what makes up a UA, and how you can use user-agent parsing to your advantage, in our article User-Agent Parsing: How It Works And How Can It Be Used.
User-Agent list for different device types
There are millions of User-Agent combinations given that UAs change with the software and hardware. For example, a Chrome browser on an iPhone 6 will introduce itself using a different UA than a Safari browser on the same phone.
Every device type, including phones, tablets, desktops, may come with its own UA that makes it possible to detect this device for any purpose. Interestingly bots and crawlers also come with their unique UAs.
Here is a list of example User-Agents for different device types that can be detected. If you’d like to learn more on these devices, just copy and paste the UAs to our User-Agent testing tool. You’ll see all the properties of a detected device.

iPhone User Agents
Below are examples of User Agent strings used by the most popular iPhone devices. As Apple do not pass much info through the User Agent, version numbers don't allow us differentiate between iPhone models.
However, with DeviceAtlas client-side, you can classify these user agents to return correct device model.
