Motto: "Every business should have a mobile detection script to detect mobile readers."

Mobile_Detect is a lightweight PHP class for detecting mobile devices (including tablets). It uses the User-Agent string combined with specific HTTP headers to detect the mobile environment.

Nowadays web site/app content strategy matters, this is why you need all the tools to deliver the best and the fastest experience for the small screens. Mobile_Detect class is a server-side detection tool, it is not a replacement for Responsive Web Design (media queries) or other forms of client-side feature detection.

We're commited to make Mobile_Detect the best open-source mobile detection resource and this is why before each release we're running unit tests, we also research and update the detection rules on daily and weekly basis.

I'm currently paying for hosting and spend a lot of my family time 👪 to maintain the project and planning the future releases. I would highly appreciate any money donations that will keep the research going.

Special thanks to the community 👍 for donations, BrowserStack - for providing access to their great platform, Zend - for donating licenses, Dragos Gavrila who contributed with the logo.

3rd party modules / [Submit new](https://github.com/serbanghita/Mobile-Detect/issues/new?title=New%203rd%20party%20module&body=Name, Link and Description of the module.)

👉 The recommendation is that you keep Mobile_Detect.php class in a separate module and not include it in your script core because of the high frequency of updates.
