Have Chrome pretend to be an iPad
Browsers identify themselves by the 'user-agent' string in HTTP request header
You can change it https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/djflhoibgkdhkhhcedjiklpkjnoahfmg?hl=en-US&gl=US
Here's a tutorial that shows you how to accomplish this. You simply change the user agent to be the same as that of ipad safari
I might be wrong but I think this mostly has to do with the user-agent string that the browser sends. When testing access scenarios it is useful to impersonate other browsers such as Safari or Mobile Safari from a Windows PC. This can be done with Chrome using the following syntax when launching the app. This example impersonates the mobile safari browser on an iPhone. Try this -
chrome.exe --user-agent="Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU like Mac OS X; en) AppleWebKit/420+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/3.0 Mobile/1A543 Safari/419.3"There are many “user-agent” strings that can be added to this syntax and a google search should discover the correct one required.
This is very useful during testing when one wants to know how the back-end systems behave when requests from different browsers come in.
