User-Agent Switcher by Linder

Rated 2 out of 5
by Gael Lafond, 4 years agoNo switch back.
The extension works. It allows me to change the user agent, but for the whole browser. Not just the current tab.
On Teams, the messages suddenly got all scrambled. I had a mix of old messages in random order. Every refresh was giving a different set of old message. It's likely a bug at Microsoft, but still, that's not usable.
There is no way to revert back to the default user agent. I set it to my browser and OS, but Teams stop working saying my browser was not supported. I had to uninstall the app to continue using Teams.

- Rated 4 out of 5by KT, a year agoDoes what I wanted it to which is great but wish there was an eazy toggle on and off. Not just to select the browser/useragent.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Samg381, a year agoBuilt-in useragent options are outdated, causing errors on sites like YouTube / Cloudflare. No option to manually specify useragent.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Florian E. Fasmeyer, a year agoThis module is simple, yet excellent. It allows you to select which sites it should act upon and makes it quick to switch to one agent or another.
* Perfect for webdevs!
* Excellent for Mozilla Firefox Youtube users (I noticed my videos would load immediately when Ipretend to be on Chrome, Firefox is 100% being blacklisted by Google).
* Less useful for users who want multiple different user-agents for different websites (most likely, not your case). - Rated 5 out of 5by FlorinCB, a year ago
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 15800385, a year agoUpdates are severely lacking, meaning the built-in UA versions are particularly old, getting all sorts of strange behaviours from Websites...

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 13408719, 2 years agoIt does what it's supposed to do but since the spoofed browser versions are massively outdated a ton of websites will refuse to work until you disable it again. That doesn't really help its purpose
- Rated 5 out of 5by BlueFlorian, 2 years agoExcellent performance.
Allowed me to download a Windows 10 iso (22H2) without using the Media Creation tool. I needed to use this tool because I needed to go from W7 32bit to W10 64 bit and the media creation tool only offered me the 32bit versions. By 'spoofing' my PC's identity to Android I was able to get the universal W10 64bit iso.
