Very inconvenient way of importing the user agent in text form.

Hello! I decided to use your supplement. But the first thing I did not like was the lack of the ability to auto-update user agents. I thought I could solve this problem by manually adding agents through the site https://techblog.willshouse.com/2012/01/03/most-common-user-agents/ On this site there is a string display of agents for example:
"Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/60.0.3112.113 Safari/537.36
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/61.0.3163.100 Safari/537.36"
But when I began to add them, they were wrong. It turned out that these lines should be edited and indicate which client is available in fact - dekstop or mobile ... It's not convenient! Is the add-on not able to determine whether the agent belongs to the OS on the line "... (Windows NT 10.0, Win64, x64) ..."?

ID options are outdated browser versions, thus, addon does not work for sites with sensitive "unsupported browser" settings, meaning certain sites will block you.
Either
1. offer up-to-date ID options
2. enable easy "toggle off" or "whitelist" option so I don't have to keep disabling the addon every single time I need to log in to such an abovementioned website.

Worked like magic to get around the Google Drive "browser no longer supported" road block.

A good extension is User-Agent Switcher. This extension allows you to change your real device identity to a virtual one. For example, if you can’t access a website from your mobile device because it requires a computer, you can open User-Agent Switcher and select a desktop device type and operating system — and vice versa.

Youtube videos pause and buffer infinitely at exactly 1 minute with this addon enabled, used to not do that

I was whining to Gemini about Google Maps and YouTube being horrendously slow compared to Chromium browsers. It recommended a User Switcher app. I installed this one and HOLY CRAP ! Google Maps in streetview moves at Chrome speed !

This extension does way more harm than good.

While it does seem to do what it claims to be doing, in practice using this is shooting yourself in the foot.

This is because it appears that with this extension active and set to pretend to be a different browser, websites perceive you as a bot.

On a vast amount of websites you will run into an impassable cloudflare captcha verification screen. You try to solve it - it fails and loops back around. It will keep failing until you deactivate this extension.

On youtube, any comments you leave will be automatically shadowbanned. Presumably because it detects you as a spam bot.

So I honestly don't see much point in using this.

On the surface, a simple extension. Underneath, a powerful extension that enables you to view websites often in ways that run faster and disable pushing their APP to your phone. I consider it more advanced power user stuff, so I do wish there was a way to simplify things visually for more people to enjoy the advantages here. Maybe even a built-in database of known good user agents per website.
