- using a web browser and a board or item will not load, check out this article.
- using a web browser and experiencing any other issue, please read on. Our support team has outlined a few simple steps for you to try.
Step 1: Try Incognito
Try reproducing the issue in an Incognito window.
Seems like an odd step, right? Allow us to explain! An Incognito window allows you to browse privately. Other people who use your device won’t see your activity. Incognito browsers achieve this by creating a temporary session separate from your usual browser activity and then deleting any cookies associated with this unique session. An incognito session is not impacted by your usual cookies, cache, etc. This means that an Incognito window is a handy way to check whether local cookies are causing your issues with monday.com. It's also a great way to check whether any browser extensions or cache issues are causing the problem.
Here are quick instructions on how to open an Incognito browser tab in a few commonly used browsers.
Google Chrome
The easiest way to open an Incognito window is with a keyboard shortcut combination. First, make sure you're in a Chrome window. On Windows, you can use Ctrl-Shift-N. On a Mac, you can use Command-Shift-N.
Mozilla Firefox
Incognito mode in Firefox is called Private Browsing. You can open Private Browsing using a keyboard shortcut. First, make sure you're in a Firefox window. If you're on Windows, use: Ctrl-Shift-P. If you're on a Mac, use: Command-Shift-P.
Microsoft Edge
Incognito mode in Edge is called InPrivate. You can open an InPrivate browser tab using a keyboard shortcut. First, make sure you're in an Edge window. For Windows, use the combination of Ctrl-Shift-N. For a Mac, use: Command-Shift-N.
If the shortcuts aren't working for you and you'd like a slower (but more visual) way to open a private browsing window, check out the instructions on Computerworld.
If using an incognito window resolves the issue, try clearing your cache or removing extensions. If it does not resolve the issue, move on to Step 2.
Step 2: Clear cache and cookies
Steps will vary depending on the browser you're using, but you can follow the steps below if you're using Chrome.
Step 3: Check your speed
The next step is to check your internet speed. To check your internet speed, visit a speedtest website and click "Go". You're looking for your download speed.
For the best experience, we recommend a download speed of at least 5 MBPS.
If your download speed is 5 MBPS or above and you're still experiencing issues with the desktop app, move on to Step 5.
Step 4: Check your browser
Supported Browsers
Occasionally, we find that this issue comes down to the browser. Try accessing monday.com through a different web browser.
We highly recommend using the latest version of Google Chrome to have the best experience when using monday.com. The platform also works well in the latest version of Firefox. If you prefer, you can use the latest version of Safari or Microsoft Edge.
Browser Version
If switching your browser doesn't work, make sure your chosen browser is up-to-date. You can check whether your browser is up-to-date on this website. If you use an older version of your browser, it's likely that you will experience some technical troubles.
If you're still running into the same issue, proceed to the next step!
Step 5: Restart your computer
This is the final check before reaching out to us. Exit the browser and restart your computer or device. Then load the site again and give it a try!
