# Determining Which Version of MS Visio You Need or Have

Handset Designer requires Microsoft Visio 2013 OR Microsoft Visio 2016 and can be used with either the 32-bit or 64-bit versions. If you do not currently have Microsoft Visio installed, determining which version to install will depend upon the version of Microsoft Office (32-bit or 64-bit) currently installed on your computer.
