```
function getOS() {
	var userAgent = window.navigator.userAgent, platform = window.navigator.platform, macosPlatforms = [
			'Macintosh', 'MacIntel', 'MacPPC', 'Mac68K' ], windowsPlatforms = [
			'Win32', 'Win64', 'Windows', 'WinCE' ], iosPlatforms = [
			'iPhone', 'iPad', 'iPod' ], os = null;

	if (macosPlatforms.indexOf(platform) !== -1) {
		os = 'Mac OS';
	} else if (iosPlatforms.indexOf(platform) !== -1) {
		os = 'iOS';
	} else if (windowsPlatforms.indexOf(platform) !== -1) {
		os = 'Windows';

		os = 'Android';
	} else if (!os && /Linux/.test(platform)) {
		os = 'Linux';
