Browsers

For the best experience with our application, we strongly recommend using either Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox. These browsers provide the best performance, compatibility, and user experience based on our extensive testing and user feedback. Here’s why we suggest these options:

1. Performance

Our app is designed to work smoothly with minimal load times and maximum responsiveness. Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox offer optimized performance, allowing you to interact with features and navigate seamlessly without unnecessary lag.

2. Compatibility

Both Chrome and Firefox are highly standards-compliant browsers, meaning they support the latest web technologies our application uses. This ensures that all visual elements, interactive components, and features work as intended.

3. Popularity among users

Usage data shows that most of our users prefer Chrome and Firefox.

For the best compatibility, we recommend using the latest versions of Chrome or Firefox. Regular updates ensure you have the latest security and performance improvements, providing a reliable experience.

Alternative browsers​

While you may be able to use the app on other browsers, please note that performance and compatibility may vary, and some features may not work as expected. For the best experience, we encourage sticking with Chrome or Firefox.

Allocate more memory to the browser (if needed)​

If needed, allocating more memory to the browser may help if you’re using memory-intensive features within the app (think the Auralizer with multiple source and receivers). While most browsers automatically manage memory usage, you can adjust certain settings to optimize it further:

  • Chrome: If using Chrome, you can modify startup flags to allocate more memory. Right-click your Chrome shortcut, select “Properties,” and in the “Target” field, add the flag --max_old_space_size=4096 (or another value, depending on your memory needs). This command reserves more memory for Chrome processes but may impact overall system performance on lower-spec devices.
  • Firefox: Firefox automatically optimizes memory usage, but you can manually configure memory settings through about. Search for browser.cache.memory.capacity and set a custom value to limit or increase memory usage. Be cautious with these adjustments, as changes can affect Firefox’s stability.
note

Memory allocation changes are typically for advanced users and may vary based on your system’s hardware. Only adjust these settings if you are comfortable managing browser configurations, as misuse can impact browser stability and system performance.
