Where did the user agent field go in my Chrome DevTools?


Suddenly, I no longer see the "UA" field in my Chrome DevTools.

No UA field in Chrome

It should be where the "Configure throttling" text is in the above image. Not sure if I inadvertently edited a setting or if this is a recent update, but I can't seem to figure out how to get this back. Help?


Solution

  • There seems to be a lot of development happening on Device Mode. (E.g. if you try it out in Chrome Canary it looks very different.)

    For now, you can customize the user agent like this:

    1. Open the Console Drawer

    1. Select "Network Conditions" in the dropdown in the console section.

    1. Uncheck "Select Automatically", Select "custom user agent"
