Is it possible to Spoof Android User Agents without rooting? I have found https://github.com/ray-lothian/UserAgent-Switcher but it requires rooting. Since I'm using GOS I don't think rooting my device is a good idea.

thanks a lot for your help

Pretty sure with Firefox on Android you can install extensions. Should be able to use that, no?

My post might be misleading and I'm really sorry

By android UA I actually meant system wise UA, so that with one spoof all the app installed on the system would recognize my device as the spoofed one, no just the browser
