getUserAgent

The getUserAgent() method returns the default user agent string used by the SDK. If your app uses a WebView, set the same user agent there to improve tracking accuracy when cross-platform tracking is already set up. Setting the same user agent doesn’t enable visitor recognition on its own.

Syntax

getTracker().getUserAgent();

tracker.getUserAgent()

Returns

The default user agent string used by the SDK.

Type: String

Examples

To get the user agent and set it in a WebView for cross-platform visitor recognition:

Tracker tracker = ((PiwikApplication) getApplication()).getTracker();
String userAgent = tracker.getUserAgent();
webView.getSettings().setUserAgentString(userAgent);

val tracker: Tracker = (application as PiwikApplication).tracker
val userAgent = tracker.getUserAgent()
webView.settings.userAgentString = userAgent
