It's great to have control over some of the passive information being sent to websites. Here is just one of the many use cases: If you open a Google-owned website using anything besides Chrome, they shove an obnoxious message in your face about switching to Chrome. Even if you're using Chromium, which is literally the same code, they still tell you to switch. There is no "do not show again" button or any way to turn it off AFAIK. This Custom User-Agent string makes it easy to tell Google-owned websites that you're using Chrome even if you're using another Chromium-based browser thus shutting off the obnoxious message.

to set user agent per site is what I was looking for. but pls add some description how do I fill the URL field. I guess one should enter url prefix following with the star. dunno if I can use the star anywhere in the string. pls clarify right there in the options | |

I did not find the "Backup" or "Export Settings" function, I hope to add it, which will greatly enhance its convenience, thank you | |
