How can I determine the iOS version with iOS user-agent strings?
I have a list of iOS User-Agent strings for approximately 50 different iPhone’s and 30 different iPad’s. I want to know if user-agent strings like Apple-iPad4C5/1202.410, Apple-iPhone4C1/1202.466 etc. can be used to determine the current iOS version running on these devices.

My iPhone 6 running iOS 8.2 has this user agent string:
Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 8_2 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/600.1.4 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/8.0 Mobile/12D508 Safari/600.1.4
You can see iPhone OS 8_2 within that string. This is the OS version. You can parse that out.
Apple has documented the format of the Safari User-Agent string in the Safari Web Content Guide. You can look at the examples there to see how the User-Agent embeds the iOS version number. Examples include CPU iOS 2_0 and CPU OS 3_2 .
Note, however, that third-party browsers (any app that uses a UIWebView , really, which includes many popular apps) can and often do customize the User-Agent.

Detecting iOS Version Number from User Agent using Regular Expressions
If I have an iOS user-agent like
Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU iPhone OS 4_0 like Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/532.9 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.5 Mobile/8A293 Safari/6531.22.7
Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU iPhone OS 4_0 like Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/532.9 (KHTML, like Gecko) Mobile/7D11
How would I detect the iOS version using regular expressions so that it would return e.g.
for the above user agent?
4 Answers 4
The RegEx that is working for me is:
An iPad 5.1.1 has an HTTP_USER_AGENT like this:
So 3 numbers in the iOS version and not iPhone OS present.
A possible Ruby implementation could be:
It returns nil if not iOS version found
This regular expression should do what you want :
you have to capture the two matching group values, how to do it depends on the language you use .
With php you can do it in this way :
This regex will match 2 and 3 segments like 4.0 or 6.1.3
Note that this may also match other devices, so make sure you test this on a iOS device.
This will return the OS X version on a Mac.
You also may want to replace the _ by . using .replace(/_/g,’.’); or even convert it to a array using .split(‘_’); .
I found the existing answers didn’t have a good success rate when tested against the possible user agent strings on this web page of example user agent strings:
I have created the following regex which has more success when tested against these examples:
The fourth group contains the ios version number which is in the format x_y_z or x.y.z where y and z are optional.
There are 7 examples user agent strings which do not contain any version number so those particular ones are not matched. There is one example string where the ios version is «7.1» but the regex matches only the major version number «7» (this was good enough for my use case)
As well as the tests on the above page its also been tested against the ios10 agent strings listed on this page:

Tips & Tricks: изменяем User Agent в iPhone
Как известно, User Agent необходим для «идентификации» пользователя, а конкретнее, для определения, каким клиентом или через какое устройство заходит пользователь к вам на сайт. В зависимости от этого, можно «подставлять» необходимый контент (данные, разметку). Это актуально в последнее время по причине большого роста мобильных устройств.
В продолжении темы iPhone Dev Tips & Tricks расскажу о том, как поменять User Agent на «iPhone».
Для того, чтобы получить некий контент, который чувствительный к User Agent (в моем конкретном случае я хочу получить XML файл), необходимо выполнить следующий код:
NSURL *url = [[NSURL alloc] initWithString:@»http://domain.com/SomeXml.xml»];
NSHTTPURLResponse *response;
NSError *error;
NSMutableURLRequest *request = [[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] initWithURL:url];
[request setValue:@»Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU like Mac OS X; en)» forHTTPHeaderField:@»User-Agent»];
NSData *data = [NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:request returningResponse:&response error:&error];
Как видите, для решения задачи необходимо воспользоваться setValue:forHTTPHeaderField для вашего запроса (NSMutableURLRequest).
В моей конкретной задаче я использовал NSData, так как мне необходимо было использовать полученный XML для NSXMLParser:
NSXMLParser *xmlParser = [[NSXMLParser alloc] initWithData:data];
NSLog(@»XML is downloaded.»);

What is the iPhone 4 user-agent?
Has anyone found the iPhone 4’s browser’s user-agent string yet?

Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU iPhone OS 4_0 like Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/532.9 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.5 Mobile/8A293 Safari/6531.22.7
To find your user agent (Google: «What is my user agent» gives this answer)
- Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU iPhone OS 4_0 like Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/532.9 (KHTML, like Gecko) Mobile/7D11
- Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU iPhone OS 4_0 like Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/532.9 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.5 Mobile/8A293 Safari/6531.22.7
- Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU iPhone OS 4_0_1 like Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/532.9 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.5 Mobile/8A306 Safari/6531.22.7
- Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU iPhone OS 4_1 like Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/532.9 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.5 Mobile/8B5097d Safari/6531.22.7
- Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU iPhone OS 4_2 like Mac OS X; en_us) AppleWebKit/525.18.1 (KHTML, like Gecko)
- Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU iPhone OS 4_2_1 like Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/533.17.9 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.0.2 Mobile/8C148 Safari/6533.18.5
iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad from iOS 2.0 — 5.1.1 (to date).
You do need to assemble the full user-agent string out of the information listed in the page’s columns.
iOS 4.3.2’s User Agent, which came out this week, is:
Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU iPhone OS 4_3_2 like Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/533.17.9 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.0.2 Mobile/8H7 Safari/6533.18.5
You cannot identify the (hardware) version of an iPhone by user agent.
It’s only possible to recognize that it’s an iPhone and which software versions it’s running.
Note: The user agent strings from Facebook’s internal browser do indicate the actual physical device. Even the cellphone carrier (eg. AT&T)
Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 10_3_3 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/603.3.8 (KHTML, like Gecko) Mobile/14G60 [FBAN/FBIOS;FBAV/149.0.0.39.64;FBBV/79173879;FBDV/iPhone7,2;FBMD/iPhone;FBSN/iOS;FBSV/10.3.3;FBSS/2;FBCR/AT&T;FBID/phone;FBLC/en_US;FBOP/5;FBRV/0
Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 11_1 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/604.3.5 (KHTML, like Gecko) Mobile/15B93 [FBAN/FBIOS;FBAV/148.0.0.45.64;FBBV/78032376;FBDV/iPhone10,4;FBMD/iPhone;FBSN/iOS;FBSV/11.1;FBSS/2;FBCR/AT&T;FBID/phone;FBLC/en_US;FBOP/5;FBRV/0]
These won’t be the case in Safari or Chrome from iOS — only within the browser inside the Facebook app.
(I’m getting iPhone9 too though — not quite sure what that is!)

List of User Agent strings
Published: 23 October 2018
The User-Agent (UA) string is contained in the HTTP headers and is intended to identify devices requesting online content. The User-Agent tells the server what the visiting device is (among many other things) and this information can be used to determine what content to return. Of course this requires using a device detection solution which translates UAs into understandable software and hardware information.
User-Agent list for different device types
There are millions of User-Agent combinations given that UAs change with the software and hardware. For example, a Chrome browser on an iPhone 6 will introduce itself using a different UA than a Safari browser on the same phone.
Every device type, including phones, tablets, desktops, may come with its own UA that makes it possible to detect this device for any purpose. Interestingly bots and crawlers also come with their unique UAs.
Here is a list of example User-Agents for different device types that can be detected. If you’d like to learn more on these devices, just copy and paste the UAs to our User-Agent testing tool. You’ll see all the properties of a detected device.

iPhone User Agents
Below are examples of User Agent strings used by the most popular iPhone devices. As Apple do not pass much info through the User Agent, version numbers don’t allow us differentiate between iPhone models.
However, with DeviceAtlas client-side, you can classify these user agents to return correct device model.
