Certain websites such as WhatsApp Web might say that your browser is unsupported. To get around this, simply pass in the `--pretend` flag, as such:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ nativefier --pretend "http://web.whatsapp.com"
|

```
|

This will use a preset user agent string to make the website think you're accessing it from a regular Google Chrome browser.

By default, nativefier uses a preset user agent string for your OS and masquerades as a regular Google Chrome browser, so that sites like WhatsApp Web will not say that the current browser is unsupported.
|

If this flag is passed, it will not override the user agent.
