How to Ensure Quizzes Created With ProProfs Work on Safari

Superior HTML5 technology powers quizzes created at ProProfs. This technology ensures that your quizzes on ProProfs load faster and run on all kinds of mobile devices such as iPhone, iPad, Android. Also on browsers including Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, Google Chrome and more.

However, at times Safari's default cookie settings block third-party apps. As a result, learners trying to access quizzes embedded on your website or blog using Safari might not be able to do so. In case you are accessing your quiz directly at ProProfs.com, the same will work fine across all platforms and mobile devices.

*Note: This article describes a rare scenario that usually does not happen unless the settings in the browser are non-default.
