Article with information on browser compatibility of Office Online.
Which browsers work with Office Online
For the best security and functionality, keep your web browser up to date. All modern browsers should update automatically, but please make sure your browser has auto-updates enabled. Microsoft Edge and Internet Explorer will get their updates through Windows Update; it's important that you install those updates as they become available.
For more information see: Frequently Asked Questions about Windows Update.
Desktop and Laptop computers
Use the most recent versions of the following browsers for the best experience with Office Online.
Windows 10:
Microsoft Edge, Internet Explorer 11, Mozilla Firefox, or Google Chrome
Windows 8, 8.1, or 7 (SP1):
Internet Explorer 11, Firefox or Chrome
Windows Vista (SP2):
Firefox or Chrome, but some features may not be available. We recommend updating to at least Windows 7 (SP1).
Mac OS X (10.10 and later):
Apple Safari 10+ or Chrome
Linux:
Office Online works in both Firefox or Chrome on Linux, but some features may not be available.
Note: Modern pages, lists and libraries on SharePoint Online are only supported in Internet Explorer 11 when Document mode is set to Internet Explorer 11
If your organization is dependent upon Internet Explorer 8 or Internet Explorer 9 to access older web apps and services, you may want to consider upgrading to Internet Explorer 11 and evaluating Enterprise Mode for Internet Explorer 11. This update helps provide better backward compatibility for legacy web apps.
