Browsers and Devices

We automatically gather browser information from Continuum platform users to inform which browsers we design and test for.

Verified browsers

These are the browsers we recommend testing on when developing the Continuum platform. This list strongly recommends testing on a range of browsers created within the last 3 years that cover the largest representation of the user base.

Browsers not listed may still work well, and it should be noted that this is not a list that intends to suggest that these are the only browsers the service will work on – this is simply a benchmark for testing against to ensure that the Continuum platform will likely work for as many users as possible alongside appropriate cost-effectiveness and development overhead.

Two distinct levels of support are given and denoted next to each browser. Where ‘latest version’ is listed, it means the latest stable version plus one version back, as these browsers regularly update without intervention from the user.
