> Motto: "Every business should have a mobile detection script to detect mobile readers."
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.
Nowadays web site/app content strategy matters, this is why you need all the tools to deliver the best and the fastest experience for the small screens. Mobile_Detect class is a [server-side detection](http://www.w3.org/TR/mwabp/#bp-devcap-detection) tool, it is not a replacement for Responsive Web Design (media queries) or other forms of client-side feature detection.
We're commited 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.

##### 3rd party modules / [Submit new](https://github.com/serbanghita/Mobile-Detect/issues/new?title=New%203rd%20party%20module&body=Name, Link and Description of the module.)
:point_right: The recommendation is that you keep Mobile_Detect.php class in a separate module and not include it in your script core because of the high frequency of updates.
