Amazon Luna on a Mac

# Amazon Luna on your Mac, without the hiccups.

Luna plays in a browser on a Mac. Luna Standard comes with Prime. Kilobat watches the session and names what on the Mac gets in its way.

## Playing on a Mac

- **Open Luna in a supported desktop browser.** Check Amazon’s compatible-device page for current browser versions.
- **Plug in or use 5 GHz Wi-Fi.** A Mac on 2.4 GHz shares a slower, busier band.
- **Check the connection** before you play.
- **Pause AirDrop and background uploads.** Kilobat flags both while you play, pauses AirDrop in one click, and with Pro can hold supported sync apps.

How Kilobat helps

## A browser game, measured as it plays.

Luna runs in a browser tab, so Activity Monitor only shows the browser. Kilobat notices the session when a steady one-way game stream comes into the browser while it talks to luna.amazon, which it names from its network filter or reverse DNS, and measures the browser’s game-like traffic. Another busy tab can affect that estimate.

- **Live:** ping, jitter, loss, bitrate and data, with AirDrop, 2.4 GHz, a weak signal and busy apps flagged as they happen.
- **On a hotspot:** the data an hour, where the session is heading and when your budget runs out.
- **Afterwards:** each stutter with what was going on, such as “Dropbox was uploading”.

## Questions

**Can I play Amazon Luna on a Mac?**

Yes, through luna.amazon.com in a supported desktop browser. Check Amazon’s compatible-device page for current versions.

**What internet speed does Luna need?**

Amazon’s public overview gives no Mac-specific speed target. Check Amazon’s current help before play; Kilobat measures the data your session actually uses.

**Is Luna included with Prime?**

Luna Standard is included with Prime in the countries Luna plays in. Luna Premium is $9.99 a month.

**Why does Luna stutter when nothing else seems to be running?**

On a Mac, Photos, iCloud Drive, Time Machine and updates upload and download in the background, and AirDrop pulls the Wi-Fi radio off channel to scan. Kilobat names whichever was running when it stuttered.
