Description

Hello

I've just switched to a Motorola One Macro.
And for some reason, the useragent string isn't parsed properly by the boot.rebble.io website.
(I simulated this on PC using my useragent string with the User-Agent Switcher extension).

Basically, because "macro" contains the word "mac" ... it's not detected properly as a mobile platform. I guess it's a bug in flask ?

my useragent string for testing purposes :
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 9; motorola one macro) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/84.0.4147.111 Mobile Safari/537.36

Research direction

Reproduce the issue on boot.rebble.io with the provided Motorola One Macro user-agent, or with the User-Agent Switcher extension. Find the user-agent parsing entry point and verify that the device is classified as a mobile platform rather than a Mac; done means the supplied string is handled correctly and the relevant behavior is covered by a test.
