What operating systems can be detected?

SnoopMy can detect the following operating systems from your browser's user agent string: Windows 10, Windows 11, Windows 8.1, Windows 7, macOS (all versions), Linux distributions, Android, iOS (iPhone and iPad), and Chrome OS. The detection is based on the user agent string sent by your browser.

Most popular operating systems (2026)

  • Windows — dominant on desktop, with Windows 11 rapidly growing
  • Android — dominant on mobile worldwide
  • iOS — dominant on mobile in North America and Western Europe
  • macOS — popular among professionals and creatives
  • Linux — preferred by developers and power users

Why does Windows 10 and 11 show the same?

Both Windows 10 and Windows 11 identify themselves as "Windows NT 10.0" in the user agent string. This is because Microsoft made Windows 11 backward-compatible at the user agent level to avoid breaking websites that check for Windows version compatibility. The only reliable way to distinguish Windows 10 from Windows 11 at the browser level is through additional JavaScript APIs.

SnoopMy attempts to use the User-Agent Client Hints API (if available) to provide more accurate Windows version detection, but this API is not supported by all browsers.

Frequently Asked Questions about Operating Systems

What operating system am I using?
Your current operating system is shown in the live results card above. It is detected from your browser's user agent string.
Can websites see my operating system?
Yes. Your browser automatically sends your operating system information in the user agent string with every web request. This allows websites to serve platform-appropriate content and downloads.
How can I hide my operating system from websites?
You can modify or spoof your browser's user agent string using browser extensions. However, this may cause some websites to display incorrectly. Privacy-focused browsers like Brave also offer user agent randomisation.
