Pick up the Android version in the browser by Javascript

Question

I\'m building a web app and wanting to disable transitions effects on Android devices under version 3.0.

Is there anyway to pick up the Android version number by Ja

Answer 1

Use below code to get 2 digit version of Android

var ua = navigator.userAgent;
if( ua.indexOf("Android") >= 0 )
{
  var androidversion = parseFloat(ua.slice(ua.indexOf("Android")+8)); 
  if (androidversion < 2.3)
  {
      // do whatever
  }
}

For example

Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 2.2.1; fr-ch; A43 Build/FROYO) AppleWebKit/533.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/533.1

will return Android Version = 2.2
