WURFL Query
Add device selection and query to your webpage or application. WURFL Query is a cloud-based service with a REST API that lets you query the WURFL device database of more than 120,000 device profiles. Now, your consumer-facing application or dashboards can quickly select the exact model of a smartphone, tablet, or smart TV and test whether it matches or meets certain criteria. You can even use QR codes to identify devices when used in conjunction with our WURFL.js Business Edition product. Or, you can query multiple devices that meet a set of criteria. Trial the Beta release today. Stay tuned for the WURFL Query business edition coming soon.
