HTML Redirect Dependent on Device Type

831 views Asked by Josh Gafni At 01 April 2022 at 21:26

I have a very simple webpage:

<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="0; url='https://www.website1.com'" />
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

Instead of this always redirecting to the same website, I would like to redirect to either website1 or website2 depending on if the user is on a mobile device or a browser on their computer. I am new to front-end web development, so any help you could provide would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

You should use Javascript for that. Check for device type based on the userAgent, and then redirect to the new website

<script>
if( /Android|webOS|iPhone|iPad|iPod|BlackBerry|IEMobile|Opera Mini/i.test(navigator.userAgent) ) {
 // redirects if mobile
 window.location('https://example.com')
} else {
  // redirects if whatever else
  window.location('https://example2.com')
}
</script>
