User agent is a browser feature which determines how the browser identifies itself while requesting for information on the web. It also affects the behavior of web pages displayed on your web browser. For example, many websites have a lighter version specially designed for mobile platforms. However, this might not be desirable always. The good news is that this behavior can be fixed by changing your browser's user agent.
SureFox provides an easy way to change its User Agent to emulate any browser of your choice. Just follow the steps below to manage your user agent:
1. Launch SureFox and go to the admin settings using your password
2. Tap on Browser Preferences
3. Scroll down to Advanced Settings and tap on Browser Agent. You will see a screen like below:
