okhttpalso supports custom headers, so add images to the list. One possibility would be to set the user-agent at the app level so it trickles down to all types of requests, and possibly default from the package name.Cordova also has the
AppendUserAgentandOverrideUserAgentpreferences. Spoiler alert: These are not compatible with Tabris.js 1.x or 2.x. Using these Cordova build properties would be less flexible than being able to modify the user agent at runtime. I can’t think of a situation where it would be necessary to do so, but would rather see these defined on theappobject as Cordova is pretty much only used for building and not really defining the capabilities of the built app.
