Client SDK

LiveSwitch is available for client-side deployment on almost any modern platform.

The following shows feature support per platform and platform version. Note that not all platforms offer real-time communication, so some features may be limited or unavailable for technical or legal reasons.

Minimum supported version, such as OS, framework, and browser, is affected by the vendor support policy. Although LiveSwitch maintains support for deprecated product version, there is no guarantee that these versions are fully functional and LiveSwitch doesn't perform optimizations for these versions.

Note

On iOS, LiveSwitch supports only the Safari browser.

For support beyond the scope of the platforms, frameworks, or browsers detailed here, contact Sales.
