★★★★★Provides a real PC desktop browser experience.
I have some websites that do not go into full desktop mode using Safari and other browsers, despite selecting desktop mode. This is caused by an incorrect user agent being passed.
WAS lets me select a Windows chrome user agent (among many others or you can build your own), and those websites now display the same as they do on my Windows PC.
This is not full featured browser. You won't find things like bookmarks. It's really designed for testing. However, in my specific use case, it works grea
★★★☆☆Really works, but could use a lil extra.
So in my long user experience, using an iOS device to spoof user agents is not always easy nor successful. This right here app actually does fool websites into your running, say, chrome on a desktop. But, the UI leaves something to be desired and share sheet integration is sorely missed.
★★★★★Works but has one major issue
It does indeed work, but you can only have one tab open at a time, which is pretty tedious to deal with and hopefully something that could potentially be added in the future.
