Notes on the supported web browsers table.
-
Penultimate version is defined as the most-recent-but-one major version of the listed browser.
-
And major version is defined as a change to the whole number portion of a browser’s version number.
-
For example Google Chrome 110 is the major version release that supercedes Google Chrome 109. So long as Google Chrome 110 is the current version, Google Chrome 109 will be the penultimate version.
-
-
-
The 60 days of support for penultimate versions begins as of the release of the current version. Once a current browser release is more than 60 days old, OpenTiny is no longer supported on the penultimate version.
-
OpenTiny is supported on the most recent update of the browsers listed above, on the operating systems listed above.
-
OpenTiny is not supported on browsers running in Quirks or backward compatibility modes.
-
OpenTiny is not supported on pre-release, beta, or other ‘technology preview’ browser releases.
-
On browsers that offer a longer-term stable version (ie Firefox Extended Support Release and Chrome Extended stable), OpenTiny is only supported on the current longer-term stable release.
Supported Mobile Platforms
OpenTiny mobile is tested against, and is designed to run on, the default browser running on either the current or penultimate version of either Android and iOS.
| Operating System | Default browser |
|---|---|
Android |
Chrome |
iOS |
Safari |
By default, both Google and Apple automatically update their operating systems and their default browsers.
Android and iOS, again by default, automatically update themselves with patches, security fixes, and minor updates. However, major updates — that is updates from one major version of the operating system to the next major version — are announced but not installed without user or system administrator input.
The default browser on each operating system is similarly updated with patches, security fixes, and minor updates. Unlike with the operating system, however, major updates — that is updates from one major version of the default browser to the next major version — are also automatically installed by default.
Consequently, Tiny Technologies, Inc. only supports OpenTiny mobile on the most recent release of each of the four supported operating system and browser combinations.
That is, OpenTiny mobile is supported on
-
the most recent release of the current version of Android in combination with the most recent release of Chrome for the current version of Android;
-
the most recent release of the penultimate version of Android in combination with the most recent release of Chrome for the penultimate version of Android.
-
the most recent release of the current version of iOS in combination with the most recent release of Safari for the current version of iOS.
-
the most recent release of the penultimate version of iOS in combination with the most recent release of Safari for the the penultimate version of iOS.
However, OpenTiny mobile is not supported on any beta or other pre-production releases of either the mobile operating system or its default browser.

PowerPaste Feature and Browser Support
PowerPaste (Copy and Paste) is supported on all the browsers supported by OpenTiny Enterprise. There are some variances of functionality for different browsers.
| HTML Cleaning | Improved HTML Cleaning | Image Import | |
|---|---|---|---|
Microsoft Edge Latest |

Chrome Latest |

HTML Cleaning
On all browsers, PowerPaste provides basic HTML cleaning. For browsers where HTML5 support is not available, PowerPaste uses the browser DOM to import and clean HTML. This mechanism is the primary cleaning method on browsers where HTML5 clipboard APIs are not available. While the resulting content is clean HTML the direct conversion to a browser DOM can result in some loss of content structure and/or formatting information.
Improved HTML Cleaning
On browsers that support HTML5 APIs, PowerPaste is able to use improved HTML cleaning techniques. Improved HTML cleaning uses the HTML5 clipboard APIs to access the clipboard directly. The original document structure and formatting (when importing formatting) is more likely to be preserved. Where available this approach gives the highest fidelity copy and paste from supported applications to HTML.
Supported Application Servers: Self-hosted Enterprise
The OpenTiny spell checking server-side component requires a Java Web Application Server that supports Servlet Implementation API 3.0.
