| **Device Tips** | **Tech Tips** | **Suggestions** |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Use **[Google Chrome](https://www.google.com/chrome/)** as your browser for the most seamless user experience. | **[Clear your cache](https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/32050?co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop&hl=en)** every other week to avoid lag time and system errors. | **[Download the Trainual app](https://help.trainual.com/en/articles/5112400-the-trainual-app-for-iphone-android?hsLang=en)** to view content on the go. iOS or Android is available. |
| Keep your **[macOS](https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201541)** and/or **[Windows 10](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/update-windows-3c5ae7fc-9fb6-9af1-1984-b5e0412c556a)** operating systems up-to-date. | Bookmark this **[help center page](https://help.trainual.com/en/?q=troubleshoot&hsLang=en)** for common steps with troubleshooting issues. | Keep only *one* Trainual tab open per user account at any time in each browser. |

 

**⚫️ Dark mode viewing preference:**

 

While light mode is the default user interface for the Trainual platform, this may not be everyone's first choice. If you're looking for a way to change your display, give this Google Chrome extension a try — **[Dark Reader](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/dark-reader/eimadpbcbfnmbkopoojfekhnkhdbieeh/related?hl=en-US&utm_campaign=Dark%20Mode%20Sunset%20-%20Q2%202023&utm_medium=email&utm_content=258141708&utm_source=hs_email&_hsmi=258141708&_hsenc=p2ANqtz--4Ckwz5TuhI95SqkatvEIB4s6IkK63Avt3Ndg0eVfL4qSRvoQCi9JsyUEPASLcixR36RgyS4D3aYNOiOFhLQBdLjgeRw)**.

 

It displays your browser in dark mode and works really well with Trainual. 🙌
