Prerequisites

• I have read the Contributing Guidelines.
• I agree to follow the Code of Conduct.
• I have searched for existing issues that already report this problem, without success.

Ionic Framework Version

• v4.x
• v5.x
• v6.x
• Nightly

Current Behavior

On Chrome desktop browser, I use isPlatform('desktop') but it always return false and my app always behaves as a mobile one. Same problem with recent Chromium or Edge browser but no problems on Firefox.

Expected Behavior

isPlatform('desktop') should return true on chromium desktop browsers

Steps to Reproduce

• Build an Ionic project
• run it on a chrome browser
• open console and type : window.Ionic.platforms

You can try it on any Ionic project, like https://www.justwatch.com/ (not mine, just an example)

You will see that this return [‘mobile’, ‘mobileweb’]

Ionic Info

Ionic:

Ionic CLI : 6.10.1

Utility:

cordova-res : 0.15.1 native-run : 1.0.0

System:

NodeJS : v16.13.2 npm : 8.1.2 OS : Windows 10

Additional Information

When I browse source code here const isMobile = (win: Window) => matchMedia(win, ‘(any-pointer:coarse)’);

I tried window.matchMedia?.('(any-pointer:coarse)').matches in both Chrome and Firefox: Chrome returns true, and Firefox false

Maybe it is problem with Chromium ?

Chrome version: 103.0.5060.114 Firefox version: 102.0.1

PS: I checked that I am not in a mobile debug mode before posting this issue 😛

Nope, no touch screen, but a waiting Windows Update: I am now on the build 22000.795 (instead of 22000.739) and it works like a charm

Sorry for the waste of time !

Ow… the bug seems to be only on my computer: an other windows 11 PC with same chrome version has no problem…

I’ll be back with more information.
