Spoof Android User Agents without rooting (lemmy.world)

Is it possible to Spoof Android User Agents without rooting? I have found https://github.com/ray-lothian/UserAgent-Switcher but it requires rooting. Since I'm using GOS I don't think rooting my device is a good idea.

thanks a lot for your help

You can install pretty much any user agent switcher extension on Firefox for Android.
