[webkit-dev] New iOS versions sending bogus User-Agent build data

I would expect that a device that runs 11.3 will reprot a different User-Agent than a device that runs 11.3.1 and certianly than a device that runs 11.4 (Beta 1 & 2).

User-Agent string is frozen since https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=180365
