Zip Recruiter Job Search phone app was wrongly recognised as a bot #247

User Agent String

Job Search/24.4.0 Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 14; SM-S918U Build/UP1A.231005.007; wv) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Chrome/122.0.6261.119 Mobile Safari/537.36

Job Search/95.0 (iPhone; CPU iOS 17_3_1 like Mac OS X)

Reproduce

I couldn't reproduce this because the Iphone app is limited to the US. But this is something that came up at $WORK where we were wrongly marking this app as a bot, it's due to the (?<! ya(?:yandex)?)search pattern.

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/ziprecruiter-job-search/id541933937 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ziprecruiter.android.release&hl=en&gl=US

We have manually excluded this agent from our checks at work, but I wondered if adding it to the negative lookbehind would be the solution. Happy to open a PR but I couldn't get the tests running for some reason so thought I would start with an issue report.

Many thanks Johnathan
