General requirements

What devices does RealBridge run on?

RealBridge runs on any laptop, desktop computer, or tablet that supports video calling from a web browser.

What browser should I use?

On Windows or Linux PC, Apple macOS, or Android tablet you can use any modern browser, such as Chrome, Edge, Firefox, or Safari. (Note: older versions of Edge and Internet Explorer do not work.)

On an Apple iPad you can use the Safari or Chrome browser.

How fast an internet connection do I need?

RealBridge requires around 1 Mbps of download and upload bandwidth for video. If you have a weak connection you can turn off your camera and/or the incoming video to reduce bandwidth requirements.

Cameras

Do I need a webcam?

RealBridge does not require a webcam to run; you can play without being connected on video or audio calls. However, without video, the experience is compromised. RealBridge works perfectly with inexpensive webcams, which are widely available online.

How do I check my camera is working?

Visit the RealBridge Camera and microphone test page to troubleshoot video and audio issues.

Social Bridge

Can I play a social game or rubber bridge with three friends online?

Yes, you can - see RealBridge Lounge for more details.
