Permissions Test

Check status of all browser permissions including camera, microphone, geolocation, notifications, and more. Test permission requests, verify permission states, and troubleshoot permission-related issues. Essential for web apps that require device access.

Modern browsers implement a permission system to protect user privacy. Permissions can be in three states: granted, denied, or prompt (ask user). Some permissions like camera and microphone require secure contexts (HTTPS) to function. This tester helps you understand and manage your browser permissions.

Helpful questions

Frequently asked questions about Permissions Test

Use these answers to understand results, browser limitations, permissions, and sensible next troubleshooting steps.

Why do some browser permissions stay blocked even after I reload the page?

When a permission has already been denied, many browsers remember that choice for the site and keep returning the same blocked state until you change it manually in site settings. Reloading alone often does not reset the permission decision.

Which permissions usually require HTTPS or a secure context to work?

Sensitive capabilities such as camera, microphone, and in many cases geolocation generally require a secure context. If a permission test behaves differently between local development, HTTP, and HTTPS, the security context is one of the first things to check.

How can this permissions tester help troubleshoot camera or microphone problems?

It helps separate permission state from device state. If the permission is denied or still prompting, the app cannot use the device yet. If permission is granted but the device still fails, the next likely causes are browser device selection, operating system privacy settings, or hardware problems.
