Flowchart tips and troubleshooting
Fix preview, download, mobile, and sharing issues with Flowchart.
How to get a better result
Create nodes, connectors, and hand-drawn flowcharts locally with project save and export. Clear, simple input is more reliable. Start with a small test before adding more images, text, nodes, or data.
Troubleshooting
Nothing downloads
Check browser download permissions and free storage. Image and GIF generation briefly uses memory; reduce grid size, frame count, or image dimensions on mobile.
Preview and export differ
Wait for fonts and images to load before exporting. If the browser tab just resumed, refresh the preview once.
Can I share the output publicly?
You can share the generated file after checking private information, third-party copyright, and information about minors. The tool cannot determine whether you have permission.
Known boundaries
- This is a local single-user editor without realtime collaboration.
- Complex professional diagrams may still require desktop software.
