You can access Gmail via a browser installed on a PC, Mac, or Linux computer. To access Gmail via a browser installed on a mobile device, make sure your mobile browser meets these minimum requirements.
To get the latest Gmail features, use a supported browser
In general, Gmail supports the current and prior major release of Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safari on a rolling basis. If you use a browser other than those listed below, you'll be automatically directed to the basic HTML view of Gmail.
There are two exceptions:
- Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Safari do not support desktop notifications.
- Offline Gmail only works for Google Chrome. See Installing Gmail offline for Google Chrome.
If you're using a supported browser, but see a message in Gmail that your browser is unsupported, you may be using an extension that interferes with browser detection. Try disabling your browser extensions to resolve the problem.
To use Gmail, enable cookies and JavaScript
Regardless of your browser type, you must have cookies enabled to use Gmail. Also, if your browser supports it, enable JavaScript.
