## Description

Unknown to many, WooCommerce captures the device/platform, browser and browser version
used by a customer when an order is placed, this is known as the user agent string.
This useful information is currently not shown anywhere in the WooCommerce plugin.

**Friendly User Agent for WooCommerce* simply displays this information as a new
column on the _Orders_ page and within the _Edit Order_ page. You can then see what
customers are using what devices and browsers.
