HTTP headers / response header
Accept-Ranges
Accept-Ranges: bytes
What it does
Advertises that the server supports Range requests on this resource.
The gotcha
Absence does not forbid trying a Range — but a server answering 200 with the full body to your Range request is telling you it does not care.
Debugging headers on a phone
The fastest way to see what Accept-Ranges is actually doing is to send the request and read both sides raw — ReqPad shows auto-generated and custom headers for every request, on all six protocols, with history.
