Chrome is sometimes detected from https://www.whatismybrowser.com/ though Opera or other browsers agents are applied. Wish a tiny number or a tiny browser icon is shown at the toolbar icon to identified what browser is using.

This extension works as advertised, but sometimes too well. Random User-Agent (RUA) will generate a random user agent from a predefined list of user agents built into the plugin for you to choose from, and allows you to add your own if you so wish. I believe it will generate a new random user agent for time you start your browser or based on a timer. You will want to immediately uncheck all the Internet Explorer user agents as these will cause probably 90% of the websites you visit to break.

You can also customize RUA by adding your own string of user agents to be used at random intervals. But be forewarned: if you add mobile browser user agents to this list it will probably cause the website you're visiting the break, load improperly, or just not work at all.

I am also not a fan of it's whitelist exceptions section, as it's confusing and doesn't work half the time. You can plug a website like "https://chrome.google.com/webstore/*" in on one line, and close (there is no save button, which is a little confusing) and reload the page and it still won't work. Just for clarities sake, it does work on Chrome's Web Store, I was just using that as an example.

Other than that it works really well. You can find a list of zillions of user agents to add to your custom list on this site: https://developers.whatismybrowser.com/useragents/explore/

DON'T use this for PRIVACY if you don't block javascript !

Websites can get your user-agent through javascript, and if the result is contrary to the user agent spoofed by the extension it will be easier for websites to track you... The JS setting is enabled, but it's "experimental" and doesn't work well.

Example : https://webbrowsertools.com/useragent/ fails for the 3 agressives tests.

If you navigate with javascript enabled, don't use it for your privacy. Otherwise it does its job, but only 2 stars because they don't warn anything about that.
