这样你就可以知道用户在使用哪个设备。

if (/ipad|tablet/i.test(navigator.userAgent)) {
    console.log("it's a Ipad"); // your code here
}
else if (/mobile/i.test(navigator.userAgent)) {
     console.log("it's a Mobile");
} else {
     console.log("it's a Desktop");
}

const isMobile = {
    Android: function() {
        return navigator.userAgent.match(/Android/i);
    },
    BlackBerry: function() {
        return navigator.userAgent.match(/BlackBerry/i);
    },
    iOS: function() {
        return navigator.userAgent.match(/iPhone|iPad|iPod/i);
    },
    Opera: function() {
        return navigator.userAgent.match(/Opera Mini/i);
    },
    Windows: function() {
        return navigator.userAgent.match(/IEMobile/i) || navigator.userAgent.match(/WPDesktop/i);
    },
    any: function() {
        return (isMobile.Android() || isMobile.BlackBerry() || isMobile.iOS() || isMobile.Opera() || isMobile.Windows());
    }
};

如何使用

if( isMobile.any() ) alert('Mobile');

要查看用户是否在特定的移动设备上:

if( isMobile.iOS() ) alert('iOS');

}

jQuery.noConflict();
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
    if(isMobile()) alert("Mobile"); else alert("Not Mobile");
});

这是一个比匹配更有效的userAgent解决方案…

function _isMobile(){
    // if we want a more complete list use this: http://detectmobilebrowsers.com/
    // str.test() is more efficent than str.match()
    // remember str.test is case sensitive
    var isMobile = (/iphone|ipod|android|ie|blackberry|fennec/).test
         (navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase());
    return isMobile;
}

为了增加额外的控制层，我使用HTML5存储来检测它是使用移动存储还是桌面存储。如果浏览器不支持存储，我有一个移动浏览器名称数组，并将用户代理与数组中的浏览器进行比较。

这很简单。函数如下:

// Used to detect whether the users browser is an mobile browser
function isMobile() {
    ///<summary>Detecting whether the browser is a mobile browser or desktop browser</summary>
    ///<returns>A boolean value indicating whether the browser is a mobile browser or not</returns>

    if (sessionStorage.desktop) // desktop storage 
        return false;
    else if (localStorage.mobile) // mobile storage
        return true;

    // alternative
    var mobile = ['iphone','ipad','android','blackberry','nokia','opera mini','windows mobile','windows phone','iemobile']; 
    for (var i in mobile) if (navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase().indexOf(mobile[i].toLowerCase()) > 0) return true;

    // nothing found.. assume desktop
    return false;
}

啊，是的，这个古老的问题……

这取决于你对知识的反应。

1. 你想改变UI，让它适合不同的屏幕尺寸吗?

使用媒体查询。

2. 你想显示/隐藏东西或改变基于鼠标和触摸的功能吗?

上面的答案可以解决问题，但也可能出现用户同时拥有两个选项并切换的情况。在这种情况下，当你检测到鼠标或触摸事件时，你可以切换一些JS变量和/或向文档主体添加一个类

  window.addEventListener("mousemove", function () {
    isTouch = false;
    document.body.classList.add("canHover");
  });
  window.addEventListener("touchstart", function () {
    isTouch = true;
    document.body.classList.remove("canHover");
  });

body.canHover #aButtonOrSomething:hover {
  //css attributes
}

  document
    .getElementById("aButtonOrSomething")
    .addEventListener("mouseover", showTooltip);
  document
    .getElementById("aButtonOrSomething")
    .addEventListener("click", function () {
      if (isTouch) showTooltip();
    });

3.你想做一些具体的事情，知道他们有什么设备吗?

使用公认的答案。
