Usage With Safari

GearConnect uses various modern web standards, and while we strive to support all browsers, Safari does not fully support some of these standards, which may result in limitations or issues when using the application.

Browser Recommendations

While you may continue to use Safari, we recommend using a Chromium-based browser like Chrome or Edge, or Firefox for the best performance and full feature compatibility.

Where feasible, we have implemented workarounds. However, Safari has partial support for some standards we rely on, which can impose limitations outside our control.

Known Safari Issues

The following issues have been identified when using GearConnect with Safari:

  • Pro Status Updates: After upgrading to Pro, Safari may not reflect the updated status without logging out and back in.
  • Input Alignment: Certain input boxes may appear misaligned in the interface.
  • Library Storage: GearConnect relies on modern web database APIs that Safari doesn’t support, which may affect library storage and retrieval.
  • PWA Installation: Safari has limited support for installing as a Progressive Web App (PWA), which may lead to installation errors.
