Switch User Agent & Wake up over WiFi

Utilities

The WAS browser allows you to switch between mobile and desktop views of a website with one click. Now you can browse any site or test your own by changing the user-agent string—which determines how the website is displayed. With the built-in WebView browser, you can see how your site will look on various smartphones, screens, and devices without needing to buy them or install additional emulators. WAS offers a wide range of built-in user agents, but if they aren't enough, you can easily add or create your own. Additionally, the application includes many built-in settings for quick compatibility testing and content verification. Download the app now and say goodbye to the hassle of testing websites on different devices!

Provides a real PC desktop browser experience.

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.

Works but has one major issue

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.

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

Really works, but could use a lil extra.

Its That End User Again
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.
