Creating a page for UA override.
= User Agent Override =

[[UserAgent|User Agent]] strings is a mechanism which gives information about the software and sometimes the device being used for accessing a Web site. Some Web sites customize the user experience based on this string. Sometimes this customization goes to the point where users are excluded because of this string. The override has been created for overcoming this issue by lying to the server about its own identity.
