I was working on a website and I realised there's a bug that occurs in Android only. After doing some searches and can't seem to fix the issue except create a conditional statement and do it differently. So here you have it, Android detection Javascript code snippet.

var ua = navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase();
var isAndroid = ua.indexOf("android") > -1; //&& ua.indexOf("mobile");
if(isAndroid) {
   // Do your thing here
}
