[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/serbanghita/Mobile-Detect.svg?branch=devel)](https://travis-ci.org/serbanghita/Mobile-Detect) [![Latest Stable Version](https://poser.pugx.org/mobiledetect/mobiledetectlib/v/stable.svg)](https://packagist.org/packages/mobiledetect/mobiledetectlib) [![Total Downloads](https://poser.pugx.org/mobiledetect/mobiledetectlib/downloads.svg)](https://packagist.org/packages/mobiledetect/mobiledetectlib) [![Daily Downloads](https://poser.pugx.org/mobiledetect/mobiledetectlib/d/daily.png)](https://packagist.org/packages/mobiledetect/mobiledetectlib) [![License](https://poser.pugx.org/mobiledetect/mobiledetectlib/license.svg)](https://packagist.org/packages/mobiledetect/mobiledetectlib) *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 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**.
