When the HoopAI platform is not loading correctly — showing a white screen, infinite spinner, or partially rendered page — the issue is usually related to your browser, cached data, or network connection. This guide walks you through the most common loading problems and how to fix them.

Quick fixes

Try these steps first before diving into deeper troubleshooting:
1

Hard refresh the page

Press Ctrl + Shift + R (Windows) or Cmd + Shift + R (Mac) to perform a hard refresh. This bypasses the browser cache and reloads all assets from the server.
2

Try a different browser

Open Hoop in a different browser (Chrome, Firefox, or Edge). If the page loads correctly, the issue is specific to your original browser.
3

Check the Hoop status page

Visit the Hoop status page to see if there is an active outage or scheduled maintenance. If the platform is down, wait for the issue to be resolved.

Browser compatibility

Hoop supports the latest two major versions of Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari. Older browsers or unsupported browsers (such as Internet Explorer) may not render the platform correctly.
BrowserMinimum versionNotes
Google ChromeLatest - 2Recommended browser for best performance
Mozilla FirefoxLatest - 2Fully supported
Microsoft EdgeLatest - 2Chromium-based versions only
SafariLatest - 2Some features may render slightly differently
Internet ExplorerNot supportedWill not load the platform

Clearing browser cache and cookies

If a hard refresh does not resolve the issue, clear your browser cache:
1

Open browser settings

In Chrome, click the three-dot menu > Settings > Privacy and Security > Clear browsing data. In other browsers, find the equivalent setting under privacy or history.
2

Select the correct options

Check Cached images and files and Cookies and other site data. Set the time range to All time.
3

Clear and reload

Click Clear data, then navigate back to Hoop and log in again. Clearing cookies will require you to re-authenticate.
Clearing cookies will log you out of all websites in that browser. If you want to clear only Hoop data, use your browser’s site-specific settings to clear data for the Hoop domain only.

Browser extension conflicts

Extensions such as ad blockers, privacy tools, and VPN extensions can interfere with Hoop by blocking scripts, API calls, or authentication requests.
1

Test in incognito or private mode

Open an incognito window (Ctrl + Shift + N in Chrome) and navigate to Hoop. Incognito mode disables most extensions by default. If the page loads correctly, an extension is the cause.
2

Identify the conflicting extension

Disable your extensions one at a time and reload Hoop after each. Common culprits include uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger, Ghostery, and VPN browser extensions.
3

Whitelist the Hoop domain

Once you identify the conflicting extension, add the Hoop domain to the extension’s whitelist or allowlist so it does not block platform resources.

Network issues

SymptomLikely causeFix
Page loads very slowlySlow internet connectionTest your connection speed and try a wired connection if on Wi-Fi
Page loads partially then stopsFirewall or proxy blocking requestsAsk your network admin to whitelist the Hoop domain and its API endpoints
Intermittent loading failuresUnstable connectionSwitch networks or restart your router
Platform inaccessible on corporate networkNetwork policy restrictionsContact your IT department to allow access to Hoop URLs
If you are behind a corporate firewall or VPN, Hoop requires access to its primary domain and API subdomains. Provide your IT team with the Hoop domain list from your account settings.

Mobile browser issues

1

Update your mobile browser

Ensure your mobile browser is updated to the latest version. Outdated mobile browsers frequently cause rendering issues.
2

Clear mobile browser data

On iOS Safari, go to Settings > Safari > Clear History and Website Data. On Android Chrome, go to Settings > Privacy > Clear Browsing Data.
3

Try the desktop version

If the mobile view is not loading, request the desktop site in your mobile browser. This can bypass mobile-specific rendering issues.
For the best mobile experience, use the Hoop mobile app instead of a mobile browser. The app is optimized for mobile devices and avoids many browser-related issues.

FAQs

A white screen usually means a JavaScript file failed to load. Try a hard refresh, clear your cache, or test in incognito mode. If the issue persists across browsers, contact Hoop support.
If only certain sections fail to load, the issue may be related to your account permissions or a temporary backend problem. Check with your account admin to confirm your role has access to that section, and try again later.
Yes, Hoop works with most password managers. However, some auto-fill extensions can interfere with form fields inside the platform. If you experience input issues, try disabling auto-fill for the Hoop domain.
