*Mobile\_Detect is a lightweight PHP class for detecting mobile devices (including tablets). It uses the User-Agent string combined with specific HTTP headers to detect the mobile environment.*

We're committed to make Mobile\_Detect the best open-source mobile detection resource and this is why before each release we're running [unit tests](./tests), we also research and update the detection rules on **daily**and **weekly** basis.

Your website's *content strategy* is important! You need a complete toolkit to deliver an experience that is *optimized*, *fast* and *relevant* to your users. Mobile\_Detect class is a [server-side detection](http://www.w3.org/TR/mwabp/#bp-devcap-detection) tool that can help you with your RWD strategy, it is not a replacement for CSS3 media queries or other forms of client-side feature detection.

##### Announcements

[](#announcements)

For `2.x` branch we are no longer taking optimizations pull requests, but only new regexes and User-Agents for our tests. On `2.x` releases we are focusing on **new tablets only**. All the pull requests about TVs, bots or optimizations will be closed and analyzed after `3.0.0-beta` is released.

Still working on `3.0.0` branch to provide you with device detection! We're really excited on this one! We would like to speed this up, but life and family gets in the way ;)

Special thanks to **JetBrains** for providing licenses for **PHPStorm**. In case you never heard or tried PHPStorm, you're clearly missing out! [Check PHPStorm](https://www.jetbrains.com/phpstorm/) out!
