Why do I need to use the Local Desktop App or Binary to access local testing in Chrome?

Starting June 2021, Google is ending support for all Chrome apps including BrowserStack's Local Chrome App. As a result, local testing will not be available through our Chrome app.

To ensure uninterrupted local testing along with improved performance, we recommend downloading our Local Desktop App for Windows & macOS users and Binary for Linux users.

Head to our Local testing documentation for Live or App Live to download now.
