Roccat
Roccat provides two types of tab options: default tabs and VisiTabs, both of which facilitate the reordering of tabs and enable quick switching between them. The default tabs maximize the viewing area for the current website, enhancing your browsing experience. In contrast, VisiTabs displays a small preview of each website, making it considerably easier to locate the desired page. Regardless of the browser you are using, there are often websites that prompt you to switch to a different browser for compatibility. Although many of these sites can function properly in various browsers, Roccat allows you to modify your user agent, which is the identifier that websites rely on to determine your browser type. With Roccat, users can change their user agent to multiple versions of Safari, Internet Explorer, and Firefox, as well as a few iterations of Opera, including Runecats Explorer. This flexibility ensures a smoother and more personalized browsing experience across different websites. Ultimately, Roccat empowers users with greater control over their online interactions.
