### 1/5 — 垃圾

*2025-10-16*

完全用不了

**Developer response:** Hello. Please try latest ap update! Thank you for your feedback.

### 1/5 — Not working with Crunchyroll website

*2024-09-08*

I have tried all user agents of this app, but they do not work with crunchyroll website. It gets stuck on “verify that you are human” page and cannot load further. 
Kindly fix the issue so that I can watch Crunchyroll on the inbuilt browser.

### 1/5 — wont stop charging me

### 1/5 — iPadでiPhone向けページを表示できるが…

*2024-07-27*

メリット
・iPadでiPhone向けページを表示できる
(=Amazonなどでスマホ向けページを表示できる)

デメリット
・日本語なし
・タブ、履歴一覧、お気に入り機能すらない
(Clear Historyというボタンはあるが)
・UIが使いづらい
・iPadのSplit Viewが使えない

恐らく、iPhone/iPadでuserAgentを変えて別端末向けページを検証するためのアプリだと思うが、、
それにしても機能が貧弱過ぎる
検証目的で利用目的が明確じゃないなら、インストールする意味はない
(100円なので損するほどではないが)

**Developer response:** フィードバックありがとうございます。履歴とブックマーク機能を追加しました。マルチタブ機能は次のバージョンで対応予定です。今後ともよろしくお願いいたします。

### 3/5 — Really works, but could use a lil extra.

*2025-03-01*

So in my long user experience, using an iOS device to spoof user agents is not always easy nor successful. This right here app actually does fool websites into your running, say, chrome on a desktop. But, the UI leaves something to be desired and share sheet integration is sorely missed.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad to know that you’ve had a positive experience with our app ❤️

### 4/5 — A nice effort, but some issues

*2024-03-09*

I applaud the developer for creating a web browser that can switch user agents. You can even create your own. 

I think there should be a trial option as I found issues that, imo, were problematic for me:
 - user agent string feature does work on the opening page, but I found it unreliable on subsequent pages such as a menu selection on a website
 - No share sheet functionality
 - No bookmarking or multiple windows (at least that I can find)
 - Features that don't seem to do anything (clear history, share URL) 
- Would be nice if there were documentation on some of the settings. 
 
With a bit more polish and maturity, I think this app could be very helpful, especially for developers trying to test different browsers. Still, as it is, it's the one of the few browsers I've found that has multiple user agents built in. Even better, the user agents are fairly current.

### 5/5 — Works but has one major issue

*2025-05-13*

It does indeed work, but you can only have one tab open at a time, which is pretty tedious to deal with and hopefully something that could potentially be added in the future.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the review! Multi-tab support is on our roadmap for an upcoming version — stay tuned!

### 5/5 — Браузер

*2025-03-11*

Хороший анонимный браузер 
С большим количеством машин 👍

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad to know that you’ve had a positive experience with our app ❤️

### 5/5 — Provides a real PC desktop browser experience.

*2024-09-29*

I have some websites that do not go into full desktop mode using Safari and other browsers, despite selecting desktop mode. This is caused by an incorrect user agent being passed.

WAS lets me select a Windows chrome user agent (among many others or you can build your own), and those websites now display the same as they do on my Windows PC. 

This is not full featured browser. You won't find things like bookmarks. It's really designed for testing. However, in my specific use case, it works great. I'm glad the developer continues to support it.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad to know that you’ve had a positive experience with our app ❤️

### 5/5 — the best!
