React Native User Agent

Platforms Supported

• iOS
• Android

Getting Started Guide

1. Add react-native-user-agent to your dependencies

yarn add react-native-user-agent

or, for npm use

npm install react-native-user-agent --save

2. Link native dependencies

2.1 react-native >= 0.60

Autolinking will take care of the link step, but for iOS, don't forget to run pod install in ios/ folder

If you haven't set up cocoapods yet, please refer to that article

2.2 react-native < 0.60

You have to call link command manualy:

react-native link react-native-user-agent

For manual linking, please refer to:

• that article for Android
• react-native own tutorial for iOS

Usage

import UserAgent from 'react-native-user-agent';

UserAgent.getUserAgent(); //synchronous

UserAgent.getWebViewUserAgent() //asynchronous
    .then(ua => {})
    .catch(e => {})
