Hi @clonevn

You could override init method of components/Controller.php like this




 public function init() {

        parent::init();


  if (strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], 'Android'))

            $theme = 'android';

        elseif (strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], 'iPad'))

            $theme = 'ipad';

        elseif (strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], 'iPhone'))

           $theme = 'iphone';

        else

           $theme =  'pc';

}

Then set your theme accordingly :)
