tidal and chrome

[musickid]

why does the tidal site stipulate using versions 38/39 of chrome for it to work. i downloaded tidal desktop no problems and i am using the latest chrome version 53 or 54 i think. finally why is the use of chrome so important. is it just for the process of downloading their application as surely tidal desktop is independent of any browser once installed? many thanks to all it also seems impossible to find anywhere to download chrome 38/39.talking about hifi lossless of course.

Sorry forgot to mention im using desktop not webplayer version. I think ive confused myself between desktop and webplayer requirements. still the question regarding versions 38/39 of chrome for webplayer remains. i only joined yesterday!! lol currently using earmax pro 2 with modimultibit and b and 0 h6 2nd gen cans.

Chrome is only for web version Desktop app is separate

I'm running chrome v 53 and Tidal works perfectly. Tidal probably meant "38/39 or higher".

Chrome v53/54 definitely works. Tidal is probably just too lazy to update their website. The point though is that if you use other browsers like Edge/Safari/Firefox, Tidal doesn't support Tidal HiFi (lossless playback). For some reason, only Chrome supports lossless playback. But I have to admit I've switched over to using the Tidal desktop app nowadays if I'm playing music from my laptop/desktop.
