Add name for Facebook Browser to docs

See original GitHub issue

Hi Guys. I’m using outdated-browser-rework in one of my projects and when i try to use the link from my fb page it says “Your browser is out-of0date”.

I notice that they have their own browser, Facebook Browser Is there a way to bypass that?

My current setup is: outdatedBrowserRework({ fullscreen: true, browserSupport: { 'Chrome': -15, // Includes Chrome for mobile devices 'Edge': -15, // 'Safari': -15, // 'Mobile Safari': -10, 'Firefox': -15, 'Opera': -15, 'IE': 11 }, })

thanks

@cain I can now confirm isUnknownBrowserOK does indeed work to avoid Facebook, Instagram etc. in app browsers being detected as outdated. However, it would cause IE to be undetected when testing using LambdaTest. This may have just been an issue with their virtual machines or something, I’m not sure, but in the end what worked best for me was the following:

outdatedBrowserRework({
    browserSupport: {
        IE: false
    },
    isUnknownBrowserOK: true,
    requiredCssProperty: 'borderImage',
});

With that borderImage property taken from the original outdated-browser package.
