Whether you're managing your own galleries or simply viewing someone's photos, it's a good idea to make sure that the tools that you're using are compatible with ours. We're flexible, but if something doesn't look right to you, check the system and browser specifications below.

Fully Supported Operating Systems and Browsers:

Windows 7: IE8, IE9; Firefox 3 and above; Chrome 5 and above

Windows Vista: IE8, IE9; Firefox 3 and above; Chrome 5 and above

Windows XP: IE8; Firefox 3 and above; Chrome 5 and above

Mac OS X 10.7: Safari 4 and above; Firefox 3 and above; Chrome 5 and above

Mac OS X 10.6: Safari 4 and above; Firefox 3 and above; Chrome 5 and above

Mac OS X 10.5: Safari 3 and above; Firefox 3 and above; Chrome 5 and above

Mac OS X 10.4: Safari 4 and above; Firefox 3 and above; Chrome 5 and above

We love Chrome and Firefox, and they're both free and easy to install. They'll work on both Mac and PC.

FYI: We really support production-ready browsers, so if you're using a beta version and something looks funny, please try one of the browsers listed above.

Mobile devices

Not at your desk? Not a problem.

  • View your site on iPhones and other mobile devices via our quick-loading mobile site.
  • Watch HTML5 slideshows on iPads and iPhones.
  • Upload on iPhones via SmugShot. Download on iPads via our app.
  • Do both at once on Android with our SmugMug Mobile app.

Other goodies to have:

Javascript and cookies must be enabled, and Adobe Flash 9 (or above) should be installed in all browsers.

Need help with Javascript?

To use our Simple uploader, Java is required.

Are you a Linux User?

Cool! While not officially supported, most things on SmugMug will work just fine using Firefox 3 and above. If you're stuck, we have help on our support forum right here.
