About What is my Browser
What Is My Browser detects the web browser you are using right now and shows its name, version and operating system as soon as the page loads, with no extensions to install.
Support teams often ask for this information when you report a problem with a website, because many issues only happen in one browser or in an outdated version.
What the tool shows
- Browser name: for example Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge or Opera.
- Browser version: the exact version number, so you can tell whether you are up to date.
- Operating system: such as Windows, macOS, Android or iOS.
- User agent: the identification string your browser sends to every website.
Why your browser version matters
Browsers update frequently to fix security vulnerabilities and add support for new web features. An outdated browser is more exposed to attacks and may display modern websites incorrectly. Most browsers update automatically, but it is worth checking occasionally, especially on shared or work computers where updates may be paused.
How to update your browser
- Chrome: Menu → Help → About Google Chrome.
- Firefox: Menu → Help → About Firefox.
- Edge: Menu → Help and feedback → About Microsoft Edge.
- Safari: updates arrive with macOS and iOS system updates.
Browser problems and quick fixes
If a website does not load or behaves strangely, first update your browser, then try a private or incognito window to rule out extensions and cached data. If the site works there, clear your cache and cookies for that site or disable extensions one by one to find the cause. When you contact support, include the browser name, version and operating system shown above, because it saves time for both of you.
What websites learn from your browser
Along with the user agent, browsers share details such as your preferred language, screen size and time zone so that websites can display correctly. Privacy-focused browsers and settings can reduce how much is shared. If you want to limit tracking, block third-party cookies, keep your browser updated, and review site permissions such as location and notifications from time to time.
Frequently asked questions
Why does the tool show a different browser than I expected?
Some browsers and privacy tools change the user agent they send. For example, many browsers are based on Chromium and identify themselves similarly to Chrome.
Is this information private?
Every website you visit receives your user agent automatically. This page simply shows it to you.
Does the tool detect my extensions?
No. Browsers do not share your installed extensions with websites.
