How we name your browser
We parse the user agent to identify common browsers such as Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, Opera, and Samsung Internet. Embedding, webviews, and spoofed strings can make detection imperfect.
Open the browser’s own About page for the authoritative product name and branding.
What does not change the name
A VPN changes your IP, not which browser binary you run. Switching devices or using a different browser profile will change this result. For version digits, use the browser version tool; for Chrome-specific checks, use the Chrome version page.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a browser?
A web browser is the app you use to visit websites, Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and others. We identify yours by parsing the user agent string your browser sends.
Why might detection be wrong?
Some browsers pretend to be others for compatibility. We use best-effort parsing of the user agent string.
How do we detect your browser?
We parse the User-Agent string (and related hints when available) for common names like Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and Opera.
Does a Virtual Private Network change my browser name?
No. A Virtual Private Network changes your network path and Internet Protocol address, not the browser application or its user agent.
How do I see the official browser name?
Open the browser’s About page from the menu (for example Chrome → About Chrome). That shows the product name and version installed on your device.
