Brief description of what went wrong
When using the In-App Browser in the Twitter app on Android (Pixel 2 XL), the results get interesting. Upon following the link, the statistics are reported accurately (see report like #1). Note, this is likely entirely an issue created by the browser, but submitted for tracking purposes.
Steps to reproduce the issue
- Follow the link to mybrowser.fyi from Twitter (using the in-app browser)
- Note that the results are correct (see referenced report #1).
- Click the Three-Dot Menu and choose "Desktop site". Page refreshes.
- Note that the Device is now reported as "Linux / Linux 64". (See report #2)
- Click the Three-Dot menu and deselect "Desktop Site". Page refreshes.
- Note that Device is still listed as "Linux / Linux 64". (See report link #3 and additional note below)
Any other notes
One more interesting thing to note. I listed all three report links even though the 2nd and 3rd are nearly identical. This may be an issue with the in-app browser as well. When switching to the Desktop Site a new report link was generated. However, when switching back to the Non-Desktop site, it retains the same report link except that it reverts to "HTTP" instead of "HTTPS".
Thanks again for this @parentelement
