I have tried several user agent switcher extensions from the Chrome web store, and none of them work on the Kiwi browser. However, they work on the Flow browser and Lemur Browser.

Here is one of the extensions which was mentioned in other issues as working. But it also doesn't work.

I tried clearing the app data and cache for Kiwi Browser and re-installed the extensions after clearing the data. But it didn't work.

I'm using Kiwi browser v112.0.5615.137

I hope someone can clarify this issue and it gets fixed soon.

This isn't a bug. It's a deliberately designed security loophole. The inability to change UA hint is a very big risk to the users, as anyone can distinguish users who are on kiwi.
