# Supported browsers and other requirements

> The browsers, computers and network access MockFlow needs for boards, live sync and meetings, and what to do when the editor misbehaves.

Source: https://mockflow.com/docs/supported-browsers-and-other-requirements

MockFlow runs in your web browser, with nothing to install. It is tested on the latest versions of the major desktop browsers, and is also available as a desktop app for Mac and Windows.

## Supported browsers

| Browser | Notes |
| --- | --- |
| Google Chrome | Recommended |
| Microsoft Edge | Supported |
| Safari on Mac | Supported |
| Mozilla Firefox | Supported |

Keep your browser up to date. Internet Explorer is not supported. Linux browsers usually work but are not tested.

## The desktop app

The MockFlow desktop app runs your boards in their own window on Mac or Windows and adds file mode for boards saved on your computer. See [Install the MockFlow desktop app](/docs/install-the-desktop-app).

## Computer and network requirements

- **Memory:** at least 4 GB of RAM, more for very large boards and wireframe projects.
- **Network:** a stable internet connection. Live sync, Mida and meetings use secure WebSocket connections to mockflow.com, so a VPN, proxy or firewall must allow them. See [My board isn't syncing or keeps reconnecting](/docs/board-not-syncing-or-reconnecting).
- **Meetings:** a microphone, and a camera for video, with browser permission to use them. See [My microphone doesn't work in a meeting](/docs/microphone-not-working-in-a-meeting).

## If the editor looks wrong or does not respond

Some browser extensions, such as grammar checkers and font tools, can interfere with the board editor. Open the board in a private window, where extensions are usually off. If it works there, turn off the extension for mockflow.com.
