I'm using a C# asp.net website.
How can I check if the user using ipad or iphone? How can I check the platform?
For example, if the user enter the website from ipad I'd like to display"Hello ipad user"
UPDATE on 17-07-2020: it looks like Apple removed the word iPad
and now use Macintosh
instead
UPDATE: Since the iPad user agent contains the word iPhone
as @Rob Hruska mentioned:
Mozilla/5.0(iPad; U; CPU iPhone OS 3_2 like Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/531.21.10 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.4 Mobile/7B314 Safari/531.21.10
and iPhone user agent is something like this:
Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU iPhone OS 4_0 like Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/532.9 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.5 Mobile/8A293 Safari/6531.22.7
it would be correct to check for the word iPhone;
or iPad;
to identify the device:
var userAgent = HttpContext.Current.Request.UserAgent.ToLower(); if (userAgent.Contains("iphone;")) { // iPhone } else if (userAgent.Contains("ipad;") || userAgent.Contains("macintosh;")) { // iPad } else { // Think Different ;) }
