`browserName` for Android and IOS apps is different #86

I'm using browserName field to determine the platform that is used by users. When IOS app triggers fingerprint update I see browserName is coming with the value, e.g. 'TestValue', but when Android app does, browserName is coming as Other. Are you aware how to make it consistent and get TestValue for browserName from both platforms?

Hi @vladyslavKucheruk We can look into why those values are not consistent, but my understanding was that the browserName field should be considered irrelevant on a mobile platform. I am not sure I understand your use case.

Why not use the os field to determine if the user is coming from Android or iOS?
