Unlike some other apps I saw suggested from Firefox & others results from Apps search & Google search this 1 actually was to UPLOAD images to certain sites like Instagram (90% of the others were to download images already posted on sites by other people instead of using screenshot apps, almost complete opposite of what I was searching for). And even better you explained how it works & how to use it RIGHT in certain internet servers. That helped a lot more than what I got from Google (lol. Some results were even outdated/impossible to use now). This saved me time & even money because now I don't have to go buy a smartphone just to actually/fully use a website (or 2+).

    Firefox on mobile doesn't have a feature to permanently keep "Desktop site" on, sometimes when the website is unloaded from memory and reloaded the website goes back to mobile view which can be frustrating. This extension is pretty much a fix to Firefox's lack of such feature.

    Simply doesn't work on mail.com. That was exclusively what I needed it to do, so that's a total failure.

    Works great to fix YouTube illegally slowing/breaking functionality on browsers other than Chrome. However, it completely breaks functionality in Google Docs, making it impossible to type in a document while the add-on is activated. As someone who does a lot of work in docs, this is a really significant issue, so a fix would be appreciated!

    Aucun effet sur Firefox pour Android, testé sur Boursobank et Renault, le navigateur reste détecté comme un Android

    Great add-on. You can apply user agent switches per domain. It worked at first try on YouTube. The icon colour will change accordingly whether there is a switch applied per domain or general. Way clearer than 'User-Agent Switcher and Manager' by Ray.

    Why is edge stuck at 44? Copilot won't even show on the page

    wow. this is better than User-Agent Switcher and Manager and UI is better. Also that works only single website if want. Great job 👍

    It works in Mozilla Firefox 129.0b9 x64, but it is sad that it is impossible to directly edit the list of domains and the User-Agents assigned to them.

    User-Agent Switcher is just great and exactly what I was looking for.
    It does exactly what the name suggests, it also works on Firefox for Android and it is Free Software (GPLv3). Also, I appreciate the extensive description.

    Very good addon, works great most of the time. Do you think you could add more mobile options like Windows Phone or LineageOS?
