B4J Code Snippet Detect mobile device

* Detect mobile device

Sub Handle(req As ServletRequest, resp As ServletResponse)
    If req.GetHeader("User-Agent").Contains("Mobi") Then
        Log("Mobile Device")
        resp.SendRedirect("/mobile")
    Else
        Log("Not Mobile")
      
    End If
End Sub

A small note: Considering that the header User-Agent can be set to be anything, this might not get the expected results in all cases.

Yes, of course, but while waiting to find a better code, this already allows you to identify the calling device
And it's a very useful feature

Believe me, normal users do not care nor know user-agent, neither they care about privacy blah blah.
We the geeks are burning ourselves on it. Not bad, but simple code like this works for 95% of our users.

This I found out after making few simple apps for our users.
