User agent when using 1Browser on iOS

If you go to security.google.com and log in with your Google account you can see your account activities the last 28 days. I can see that if I set the 1Browser user agent to Chrome and log in to e.g. Gmail (with latest 1Password on iPad) it will register the login as coming from a Mac with Chrome version 39. My question is if you have changed this lately? I can also see a similar login activity from 10 days ago but that one says "iPad Chrome 39". I don't remember if I did a login from 1Browser 10 days ago but I definitely know that I have not logged in from my iPad or any other iPad with Chrome version 39 that day. I'm a bit worried... :(

    Hi @macke,

    I've just tested 1Password for iOS on both my iPhone and iPad and in both instances if I set the user agent to Chrome it still comes up as saying Mac (but does report version 39). I can alter the user agent when developer mode in Safari (Mac) is enabled but it doesn't give the option of Chrome on an iPad there. If I sign into Google using Chrome on the iPad as downloaded just now it shows up as iPad, Chrome 48.

    I'm not saying it's definitely dodgy, all I can really say is I can't find a way to easily get Google to report Chrome 39 on an iPad. I apologise I wasn't able to come up with something more conclusive. Maybe somebody else can offer an explanation.

    The question was actually if you have changed anything regarding this in the latest version? Did it report "iPad" instead of "Mac" prior to version 6.2.2 or has 1Browser always reported "Mac" when used on an iPad?

  • We did not, as far as I can see, make any changes in this regard. The last note I see in our change log re: user agent strings was with v5.3 (quite a while ago).
