Understanding Key Browser Fingerprint Parameters: Canvas, WebGL, and Audio Explained
When you visit a website, you’re not just sending your IP and cookies. You’re giving away a lot more—like your screen resolution, timezone, hardware specs, and even how your browser renders graphics and audio.
These invisible “clues” form what’s called your browser fingerprint—a unique identity that sites use to track, detect, or block you.
In this article, we’ll explain the 3 most important fingerprinting vectors:
- Canvas
- WebGL
- AudioContext
And we’ll show you how Multilogin helps you spoof or mask these parameters to stay undetected.
What Is a Browser Fingerprint?
A browser fingerprint is a combination of data points collected passively by websites to identify your device without cookies.
It includes:
- User agent
- Fonts
- Language
- Plugins
- Canvas rendering
- WebGL rendering
- Audio signature
- Timezone, screen resolution, touch support
Some fingerprints—like your Canvas and WebGL output—are extremely hard to fake manually. That’s where fingerprint management tools like Multilogin come in.
1. Canvas Fingerprinting
What It Is:
Websites ask your browser to render a hidden image using the HTML5 Canvas API.
The way your system draws this image (due to GPU, drivers, OS, and font rendering) is unique.
Why It’s Dangerous:
Even with a clean IP, your Canvas fingerprint can link multiple accounts.
Some platforms like Google Ads and Facebook use Canvas as a trust signal.
How Multilogin Handles It:
- Generates a consistent spoofed Canvas hash per profile
- Allows fine-tuned control (real, noise, or blocked)
- Ensures each profile looks like a unique real user without overlaps
✅ Your fingerprint becomes stable, trackable (in a good way), and unlinkable from other profiles.
2. WebGL Fingerprinting
What It Is:
WebGL allows your browser to render 3D graphics.
Websites can extract:
- Your GPU model
- Precision errors
- Shader behavior
- Supported extensions
These details form a hardware fingerprint that’s nearly impossible to match between two devices.
Why It Matters:
Ad platforms use WebGL to determine:
- If you’re a real desktop or mobile device
- If your environment looks virtual, fake, or cloned
- If you’re using a bot or automation software
How Multilogin Protects You:
- Randomizes or spoofs WebGL fingerprints
- Lets you customize GPU vendor and renderer
- Prevents real device info from leaking out
With Multilogin, your WebGL data always matches the rest of your browser fingerprint—for a cohesive and believable identity.
3. AudioContext Fingerprinting
What It Is:
Websites play a short, hidden audio signal and measure how your system processes it.
The result is a unique audio fingerprint affected by your:
- Sound card
- CPU architecture
- Browser engine
Why It’s Overlooked (But Dangerous):
Audio fingerprinting is harder to detect and very persistent.
Some platforms use it to:
- Flag emulators or cloned machines
- Detect if you’re using remote desktop/VPS
- Spot inconsistencies in user behavior
How Multilogin Helps:
- Spoofs AudioContext rendering behavior
- Introduces small, natural-looking variations
- Keeps fingerprint unique per profile but consistent across sessions
Summary Tabl
Fingerprint Type | What It Reveals | Why It’s Risky | Multilogin Solution |
---|---|---|---|
Canvas | GPU, OS, Font Rendering | Links accounts via drawing hash | Spoofed output per profile |
WebGL | GPU model, 3D capabilities | Detects real vs fake environments | Full control & masking |
AudioContext | Audio hardware behavior | Subtle but powerful tracker | Realistic audio spoofing |
Why All This Matters
Without controlling these fingerprints, even the best proxy or IP won’t save you.
You might think:
“I’m using a mobile proxy, so I’m safe.”
But if your WebGL says “VirtualBox GPU”, and your Canvas hash is reused across 10 accounts, platforms like TikTok or Meta will flag or restrict you immediately.
Multilogin Makes It Easy
You could try spoofing all these manually using browser extensions or scripts. But it’s risky and unstable.
Multilogin offers:
- Built-in Canvas, WebGL, and Audio spoofing
- Isolated browser containers per profile
- Consistent fingerprint simulation
- Perfect alignment with proxy, timezone, and OS

Final Thoughts
Canvas, WebGL, and AudioContext may seem technical—but they’re core components of your online identity.
If you’re managing ads, dropshipping, affiliate campaigns, or even scraping, controlling your fingerprint is no longer optional.
With Multilogin, you gain full control over your browser identity—and peace of mind knowing your sessions stay separate, private, and trusted.
