Coruson also has a suite of apps available designed to enhance the Coruson experience. These apps provide access on mobile devices. This article will walk through the minimum technical requirements to run Coruson, including supported web browsers and devices.

• Access Through a Web Browser
• Android & iOS Apps
• Windows Application

Access Through a Web Browser

There are no minimum hardware requirements or additional prerequisite pieces of software needed to access Coruson through a web browser. All that is required is a device with a consistent Internet connection which can run a web browser. As Coruson is a web application, all the processing is done server-side.

We support most modern web browsers released in the last 5 years but do recommend that the browser of choice is updated to the latest version so that all security updates have been applied before accessing Coruson. Some of the browsers supported are listed below.

• Microsoft Edge (Legacy & Chromium based)
• Google Chrome
• Mozilla Firefox
• Opera (Standard & GX)
• Apple Safari

Note: For the best experience, we would recommend accessing the web-based version of Coruson on a desktop or laptop computer running Windows, MacOS or Linux rather than a portable device such as an iPad as we have specific apps designed for these devices.

Android & iOS Apps

There is a mobile version of Coruson which is available to both Android and iOS devices. The mobile application differs from the web-based version of Coruson. All major Coruson modules are available from within the app including Audits, Reporting and Documents. More information on the capabilities of these modules within the mobile app can be found below.

• Introduction into Audits on the Coruson Mobile App
• Introduction into Documents in the Coruson mobile App
• Introduction into Reporting in the Coruson mobile App

These applications are available directly from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store or from your enterprise distribution service. More information on this can be found on the Getting Started with the Coruson Mobile App article. The minimum requirements of the Coruson mobile app are listed below.

Important: As of version 3.1.0 of the Coruson Mobile, support for 32-bit devices was dropped. This mainly will affect any iOS and Android devices made in 2013 or earlier.

Windows Application

The Windows version of Coruson Mobile is built on the Universal Windows Platform (UWP) framework. This restricts its usage to devices running Windows 10 or later. The app is also available on Xbox Consoles, Surface Hub and HoloLens devices.

The application is available directly from the Microsoft Store and more information can be found on the Getting Started with the Coruson Mobile App article. The recommended specifications for using the application are as follows.
