Unfortunately, bugs happen. As much as we try, it's impossible to make your software 100% bug-proof. So, in case something doesn't work or you experience board loading issues, this article has a few tips for you to learn how to report the bug in the most effective way.
✏️ Learn how you can contact us: How to Contact Miro Support.
Before reporting a bug
- Test Miro in the Incognito (private) mode (to exclude the possibility of browser extensions interfering) and in a different browser. Close all browser tabs and applications running in the background if needed.
- Clear your browser's cache & cookies, restart your browser and hard refresh the page by clicking F5 (or Ctrl / Cmd + R) several times.
- Check your Internet connection or switch to another, preferably faster network. Feel free to try different VPNs if necessary to avoid any security blockers in your network.
- If you use Desktop/Mobile/Tablet application, try to re-install it and test Miro using a web-version.
- If you experience problems with specific boards, try to duplicate them and check if the problem persists there. Also, feel free opening a smaller in size or relatively empty board in Miro to see how the performance changes there.
- Check Miro Status Page to see if there are any current performance issues.
