I wanted to find out all the version's of iPad (excluding iPhone, iPod) from user agent string, currently while testing I got the following string
Mozilla/5.0 (iPad; CPU OS 5_1_1 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/534.46 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.1 Mobile/9B206 Safari/7534.48.3
Question: Will the following code works fine for all the iPad's?
String userAgentStr = request.getHeader("User-agent");
if (userAgentStr.contains("iPad"))
{
//do my logic
}
EDIT:
I am using Dolphin browser from iPad but I am getting the following UA string:
Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU iPhone OS 4_2_1 like Mac OS X; en_US) AppleWebKit/533.17.9 (KHTML, like Gecko) Mobile/8C148 Safari/6533.18.5
Similarly iBrowser from iPad UA string is:
Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 5_1_1 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/534.46 (KHTML, like Gecko) Mobile/9B206
So my above code is breaking...
