2015-03-16 14:21:54 Michael Zanetti description It seems the webbrowser app identifies itself as an Android browser. This causes a lot of sites not to be usable on Ubuntu and redirecting the user to the android app store. For example Evernote, Whatsap, g+, Nokia here maps, king.com and many many more: Example with evernote: http://people.canonical.com/~alan/screenshots/device-2015-03-16-141033.png The browser should have it's own user string, not claiming to be an android device.
