User-Agent Switcher is a simple yet powerful Chrome extension that allows you to toggle between different user-agent strings with ease. By changing your user-agent, you can mimic other browsers, devices, or search engine spiders, enabling you to access mobile or desktop versions of websites regardless of your actual device or browser.

The extension adds a convenient toolbar button for quick switching and lets you set specific URLs to always spoof. Whether you want to test website responsiveness or access region-specific content, User-Agent Switcher simplifies the process. Note that after spoofing mobile user-agents, some site behaviors may require resetting to the Chrome user-agent and clearing cookies for normal browsing.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

User-Agent Switcher requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that an Edge add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Edge add-on reputation on Edge Add-on Store, the amount of time the Edge add-on has been around, and other signals about the Edge add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing an Edge add-on.

User-Agent Switcher has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
