I am developing a Chrome extension, and I need to detect which operating system Chrome is running on but i can't seem to find any info on how to do it. Please Help. Thank You.
Recently added, you can use the getPlatformInfo method in Chrome's own API:
chrome.runtime.getPlatformInfo(function(info) {
// Display host OS in the console
console.log(info.os);
});
You would need to search for OS name and version inside window.navigator.appVersion
.
If you just want to know a platform, see this answer . You can enhance the code by searching for other user agents .
Here is a detailed list of Chrome user agent strings (click on links to see what they mean).
