You can change the user agent:
B4X:
Dim jo As JavaObject = WebView1
jo = jo.RunMethod("getEngine", Null)
jo.RunMethod("setUserAgent", Array("Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/66.0.3359.181 Safari/537.36"))
'check:
WebView1.LoadUrl("https://www.whatismybrowser.com/")
It is impossible to say whether it will work with this site.

'Return true to allow the default exceptions handler to handle the uncaught exception.
Sub Application_Error (Error As Exception, StackTrace As String) As Boolean
