What Version of Android Do I Have

What is What Version of Android Do I Have?

Reads the Android version straight out of your browser's user agent string, a quick check without digging through Settings. Useful for quickly checking compatibility with an app or feature that requires a minimum Android version. The check runs entirely in your browser, and nothing is sent to a server. But since it depends on what your browser reports, it's a quick reference, not a guaranteed-accurate system report.

How to Use This Tool

1. 1

   Open This Page on Your Device: Visit this page in a browser on the Android device you want to check.

2. 2

   Read the Detected Version: The Android version, parsed from the user agent string, appears automatically.

How It Works

Android devices typically include an "Android X" token inside `navigator.userAgent` (for example, `Android 14`), and this tool looks for that token and displays the version number it finds. It's read and parsed entirely in your browser; nothing about your device is sent to a server.

Why This Might Be Wrong or Say "Unknown"

The user agent string is self-reported by the browser, not something Android or this site independently verifies. A result can be missing or wrong because: you're simply not on an Android device; the browser deliberately sends a generalized or frozen user agent for privacy, a trend that's grown across browsers in recent years; the browser is impersonating a different platform's user agent for site compatibility; or you're inside an in-app browser (opened from a social media app, for instance) that often reports a stripped-down or generic string rather than the full one Chrome or Firefox for Android would normally send.

Common Use Cases

Checking whether your phone meets an app's minimum Android version requirement before installing it, or including your Android version in a bug report without digging through Settings > About phone.
