Browser Info

‘Can you tell me what browser you’re using?’ — the support-desk question nobody can answer offhand. This tool answers it and everything adjacent in one panel: browser name and version, operating system, screen and window sizes, device pixel ratio, language, whether cookies and JavaScript are enabled, your touch support and your public IP address. It is the page to open when a site misbehaves, when support asks for details, or when you are checking how your own website sees its visitors. Everything except the IP lookup is read from your browser locally; the IP comes from a public lookup service, as it must.

Quick Answer: Open the page to see your browser, version, OS, screen, language and public IP — everything a support desk would ask, in one panel.

Browser Info Tool

Everything the support desk will ask, before they ask it.


How to Use the Browser Info Tool

  1. Open the tool — most details fill in instantly.
  2. Read your browser and operating system lines for support conversations.
  3. Note screen and window sizes if a layout looks wrong somewhere.
  4. Copy the full report with one click to paste into a support ticket.
  5. Check cookies and JavaScript status when a site claims yours are off.

Key Features

  • Browser and OS detection with versions, parsed for humans.
  • Screen, window and pixel-ratio figures for layout debugging.
  • Public IP lookup included in the same panel.
  • Cookies, JavaScript, touch and online status at a glance.
  • One-click copy of the whole report for support tickets.

Best Practices and Tips

  • Send the copied report, not a screenshot, to support teams — text is searchable and copyable on their side too.
  • If a site renders wrongly, compare the window size here with the breakpoint the designer targeted — the answer is usually there.
  • A mismatch between screen resolution and window size explains ‘it looks fine on my machine’ arguments instantly.
  • Check the IP line when a service claims you are in another country; VPNs and corporate proxies are the usual explanation.
  • User-agent details can be spoofed by extensions; where the panel disagrees with reality, an extension is probably dressing your browser up.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Quoting only ‘Chrome’ to support when the version line matters — the full string narrows bugs dramatically.
  • Confusing screen size with window size when reporting layout issues; sites respond to the window (viewport), not the monitor.
  • Sharing an info screenshot publicly without checking it — the panel contains your IP, which many people prefer to keep in tickets, not tweets.
  • Assuming ‘cookies enabled: yes’ means a specific site can set them; browser policy and site policy are different layers.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is my browser detected?

From the user-agent and modern client-hints your browser sends, parsed into a readable name and version. The raw user-agent string is shown too, because support teams often want the unedited original.

Where does the IP address come from?

A public IP lookup service — your browser cannot know its own public address, since that is assigned by your network’s router and ISP. The lookup sees the same address every website sees when you visit.

Does this tool track or store my information?

No. The details are assembled in your browser for display and the copy button only. The IP lookup is a single request to the lookup service; nothing on this page records, stores or transmits your panel anywhere.

What is device pixel ratio and why does it matter?

It is how many physical pixels your screen uses for one CSS pixel — 2 on most modern phones and retina laptops. It explains why a ‘375-pixel’ phone screenshot is actually 750 physical pixels wide, which matters for image sizing and design QA.

Why does my browser show a different name than I expect?

Many browsers are built on others: Edge and Brave run on Chromium and may identify closely to Chrome, and compatibility strings carry historical names. The panel shows the best identification plus the raw string, so nothing is hidden.
