title: iPhone User Agent
body: <p>I'm building an iPhone app, that basically just displays information from an rss feed, and drags in some extra info from a related web site.
  I'm considering to put in some reporting code, eg the code provided by PinchMedia. I do have some issues with that, because I'll be monitoring users without consent.
  So, I was wondering if it was possible to just take a look at the requests that are received by the rss provider.</p>
  
  <p>In my code, I approach the feed as follows:</p>
  
  <pre><code>NSString * path = @"http://feeds.feedburner.com/whatever";
  [self parseXMLFileAtURL:path];
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Does the iPhone send any User Agent information to the server when opening that URL?
  If so, can I alter it in such a way, that it would be easy to distinguish a call from my app from regular rss clients?</p>
  
  <p>Thank you for your insights!</p>
