Thanks for the report. I'll look into how we approach our handling of this given that Edge is used pretty commonly in product names these days (eg. Galaxy SX Edge).

Hello @bnjmnt4n , we are doing this workaround in our project to allow Motorola browsers to work with OpenVidu: OpenVidu/openvidu@58c15b0

Is there any possibility to fix the bug? We think platform.js is actually pretty solid, and fix these issues would help for new devices using the overused "Edge" word to be detected correctly by platform.js ;)
