Environment (copy of "About Firefox")
141.0.3 (Build #2016106991), null
GV: 141.0.3-20250806102122
AS: 141.0.1
OS: Android 15

Step to Reproduce

Actual Result

  • The site says "If you use smartphone and this page is displayed, your browser is not supported."

Expected Result (= The result on Chrome)

  • The site is properly displayed.

Note

  • The mask makes it work!

I get a 403, so I assume I'm getting geoblocked.

the same result is confirmed on Firefox iOS, too. (the site works on Chrome iOS)

Environment

  • iOS (17.5.1)
  • Firefox 141.2 (59350)
Webcompat Score: 5 → 4

This site uses platform.js to detect UA. If false, this site seems to show "unsupported".

function TD() {
  switch (console.log(zn), zn.os.family) {
    case 'iOS':
      return (zn.name === 'Chrome Mobile' || zn.name === 'Safari') &&
      CD(zn.ua);
    case 'Android':
      return zn.name === 'Chrome Mobile';
    default:
      return !1
  }
}

Since there is no reply though I outreached via the contact form 2 weeks ago, I believe it would be a good idea to adopt sitepatch.

Could an intervention be targeting the platform library (now unmaintained) instead of individual sites?

The upstream library supports Firefox for Android and iOS. I think this site is just using a really old version.

ni? Tom for the intervention

I think the best we'll be able to do here is to target specific sites, since many sites will web-pack this kind of script. But if we do find a CDN-style URL which is being used by a site rather than being web-packed, we can hopefully fix multiple sites in the long tail at once.
