Apps

Sample user-agents ...

Android

• "WikipediaMobile/<version>" is prepended to the standard WebView's UA string
• examples:
  • WikipediaMobile/1.3.4 Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 4.0.4; en-us; HTC One X Build/IMM76D) AppleWebKit/534.30 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/534.30

iOS

• Earlier versions(until v3.2.1) prepended "WikipediaMobile/<version>", but it's missing from the latest release (bug 42484). Can still be distinguished from Safari mobile web hits because it doesn't actually mention 'Safari'.
• examples:
  • Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 6_1 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/536.26 (KHTML, like Gecko) Mobile/10B142

Windows 8/RT

• Default web-based app's user-agent
• examples:
  • Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 10.0; Windows NT 6.2; Trident/6.0; MSAppHost/1.0)

Firefox OS

• Default web-based app's user-agent. Also currently uses format=jsonp -- may change to format=json in future.
• examples:
  • Mozilla/5.0 (Mobile; rv:18.0) Gecko/18.0 Firefox/18.0

Blackberry PlayBook

• Default WebWorks-based app's user-agent
• examples:
  • Mozilla/5.0 (PlayBook; U; RIM Tablet OS 2.1.0; en-US) AppleWebKit/536.2+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/7.2.1.0 Safari/536.2+
