# Browser & Device Requirements

PaintScout works on smartphones, tablets, and computers using modern browsers like Safari, Chrome, and Firefox. Apple devices require iOS 11 or higher. Avoid using private or incognito browser tabs.

## What devices and browsers can estimators use?

Estimators can access PaintScout on any **smartphone, tablet, or computer** with an up-to-date browser. Supported browsers include **Safari, Chrome, and Firefox**. Do not use private or incognito tabs.

***

## What do my customers need to view estimates?

Your customers have the same browser and device requirements for viewing estimates. If they cannot meet these requirements, you can copy an estimate link or download a PDF to share.

### Estimate Link

Click the drop-down arrow beside the send button and **Copy Estimate Link** (make sure to copy the tracking link so you can still see when they view it!)

### Download PDF

Click the drop-down arrow beside the send button and **Download Estimate**.

<div align="left"><figure><img src="/files/9nnxrpkcLwt0DF7hXqaW" alt="Screenshot showing the estimate actions menu with the Download Estimate option"><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

It's important to note that if you do download the PDF and send it to them manually, it will not trigger the tracking (i.e. you won't be able to see when customers view the estimate).

We hope this information helps you understand the browser and device requirements for using PaintScout!

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.paintscout.com/support/getting-started/paintscout-browser-device-requirements.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
