You should take a look at the Browser object's platform expression:

who told you [/code:xkav2m74] the expression is on browser object?
(rephrased : what post told you that KKdenis ?)[/p]
[/p]
the expression "Is on mobile device" or "is on platform " and u select the platform from the dropdown menu its found in the [url=https://www.scirra.com/manual/124/system-conditions]System expression list[/url].[/p]
[/p]
yes the "is on mobile" can be detected by using the browser object however its not required unless u need a specific mobile device to be detected, for example u want to lock ur game to be played only on ipad4 or samsung galaxy S what ever... but i doubt u want that.[/p]
[/p]
care to mention that the browser object has mobile expression such as detecting if the mobile button back or the arrow that is inscriptioned on the devices as an arrow ( < >), same applies to menu buttons and others that can be found on most smartphones(outside iPhone which has only 1 button i think.)[/p]
[/p]
i suggest either read the manual, or if that makes u confused, go trough the entire example files C2 comes with... you will learn faster that way the basics.

— Yes, you are right. The browser object's platform expression returns the OS it's running on. My mistake.

oh no, i was asking the OP not you dear friend, but i was thinking someone told him that, then read it again, and i see the confusion, however the question i did, sounded a bit high-demanding sorry for that. you where right also though.
