📝 Overview
For the best experience using Sawyer, we recommend using the most up-to-date version of Google Chrome, Safari, or Mozilla Firefox. These modern browsers are optimized for Sawyer's features and give you the security, speed, and compatibility you need.
If you're using an older browser (especially Internet Explorer), some features may not work as expected, and we're unable to provide technical support for outdated or unsupported browsers. The good news? Updating takes just a few minutes and costs nothing.
