User-Agent Switcher and Manager by Ray

by Firefox user 14731986, 3 years agoEffective tool to fake user agents, BUT browser agents are always outdated by at least half a year!
It would be nice if they were automatically updated. The user interface could also use an improvement. One thing that would also be nice is an easy option to turn on a random user agent in a range of, say, the most common user agents.
It's a shame that this is the only user-agent extension recommended by Firefox

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 19031159, 5 hours agoIt used to work very well, but recently it didn't work, I was frustrated, I didn't know why, I tried whitelist and blacklist mode, it didn't work, I was using the latest version of firefox, not sure if it was a compatibility issue with the latest version
- Rated 5 out of 5by Jeremy Storly, 10 hours agoThis addon has taught me that nearly all web sites that supposedly aren't compatible with Firefox actually are compatible. I use this at work, on my android phone, and on my home PC as well. It's an essential addon, in my opinion, and I've had nothing but success.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14347746, a month agoThis doesn't work. I have to manually change the user agent on every startup or time interval. I don't need a data thieving, resource wasting, pretend add-on for that. There is a "Random User-Agent (Switcher)" that works perfectly and is very simple to set up.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18929078, 2 months agoPlease update latest user agent on -UserAegntSwither
- Rated 3 out of 5by Christopher Snowhill, 2 months agoIt works, but apparently, it completely breaks Cloudflare's verification captcha system, so I can't use it.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Anona Mause, 3 months agoUnfortunately I have discovered that the current version of this add-on triggers the Cloudflare 'Captcha of Death' denying access to hundreds of web-sites and as such I have deactivated it.
- Rated 5 out of 5by DeeSee, 3 months agoLiteral god-send. On Linux trying to get Windows .iso files for VM and because I'm on a desktop computer Microsoft in it's infinite need to control users does not allow the download of .iso files or even make it an option... unless you change the user-agent of course, then it's not a problem any longer. Saved me having to actually use my phone to do it again like last time. Nice work people!
- Rated 1 out of 5by Kim, 3 months agoSuper confusing interface. Choosing different user agents causes them to be smooshed onto the default user agent. Doesn't appear to actually work consistently at all.
It was last updated 2 years ago; looks like abandonware.
