User-Agent Switcher for Chrome - Chrome Web Store

With this extension, you can quickly and easily switch between user-agent strings. Also, you can set up specific URLs that you want to spoof every time. Please note that this does not provide improved privacy while browsing the Internet and that some sites might have other means to figure out that the browser is not what it pretends to be.

Understanding the User Agent Header: Decoding Browser Signals with Precision - Saint Augustines University

Every website you visit sends a digital fingerprint through the User Agent (UA) header — a textual snippet that reveals far more than just the browser name.
