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
User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (iPad; U; CPU OS 32 like Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/531.21.10 (KHTML like Gecko) Version/4.0.4 Mobile/7B334b Safari/531.21.10 Bot or Browser: This User Agent is not a known bot.

- Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 114 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/11.0 Mobile/15E148 Safari/604.1. Screen Resolution. Im just using an iphone se and do not use mozilla or apple webkit. I only have an i phone and chromebook.
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.

Iphone Safari User Agent

The following comments are owned by whoever posted them. This site is not responsible for what they say.
Or you could use one of several third-party browsers that let you set the user agent to desktop Safari, such as iCab Mobile.
One of the issues with all third-party browsers in iOS is that javascript performance is several orders of magnitude slower then it is with Safari, because Apple restricts their 'Nitro' JIT compiler to Safari. For this reason, I stick to Safari on iOS devices.
There's an easier way to do this, just install Atomic Web Browser and change the user string. You can set it as Mobile Safari (Default), Safari desktop, Firefox, Explorer or Wap Device; you can even select some specific versions. If you need the function spend some money and don't mess with your backup files. As I mention before, you have to get the payed version, but is only 0.99 and have some other handy functions.
I use this when a mobile site is underdeveloped and basically useless. Anyway, sometimes, the websites are so bloated that Atomic Web becomes very slow, I believe that the same thing would happen with Safari.
User Agent Safari Mac Os X
I have enough apps, I don't need another one clogging my memory just because I want to view the desktop version of a web page. This hack is excellent.
User Agent For Safari Mac Osx
This hack involves downloading another app, if you read the blog post.
I use the Atomic Web Browser as well. Works great, has a full screen mode, can import Safari's bookmarks and you can use it when set as Desktop Safari to access icloud.com.
User Agent Safari Ios
I'll also recommend Atomic Web Browser for this. It offers settings to appear as several different browsers. I don't use it a lot, but it's handy just in case.
