Any way to change user agent on Edge for WM10?

[funnypanks]

Hi!

I wanted to ask if there is any way to change the user agent to safari or something on WM10's Edge. Many sites keep giving me pop ups/ads to download the Android app for their site (Windows version doesn't exist). For example when I try to use airbnb their ad it keeps telling me to download the android app when trying to enter my destination and then when I'm browsing the page as well. The same thing happens in hostelworld. I'm going to be using this phone while traveling (Lumia 640) so these two sites are going to be important in particular. But I'm sure this comes up on tons of other sites as well.

Thanks in advance!

for now you''ll have to live with the ads or use UC browser which does seem to block most ads.

UC browser has even more issues. It uses an older user agent I think so all sites are an even lower resolution and work really poorly.

you're sure speed mode wasn't on?

You're right, that may have been it. I also saw there is a setting to change to iOS user agent in it. Works quite well.

Thanks for all your help!
