Safari 26 close and Refresh buttons not working in Compact tab layout

When I download specific files (not limited to a single website), even if I find that the downloaded file size matches the original file size and the downloaded file size no longer changes, Safari still does not stop the download thread, but continues to wait indefinitely. This results in the Safari not terminating the download thread even after the file download is completed, making it impossible to complete the download; The file has not been landed and cannot be obtained. This prevents me from downloading some files. Please fix this problem. In addition, I found that in iOS 18.2, during the process of downloading files on Safari, the synchronization and backup flags appear in the upper right corner of the notification bar. I am not sure if this is an unexpected behavior, but the flag still lingers for a long time after manually canceling the download thread. (the download thread is waiting indefinitely) Feedback Number: [FB16124044]

Summary: Content scripts injected via manifest continue to receive and respond to chrome.tabs.sendMessage() calls even after the user has navigated away from the original page, causing messages intended for the current tab to be handled by zombie contexts from previous pages. Environment: Safari/iOS Version: 18.5 Extension Manifest: Version 3 Expected Behavior: When a user navigates from Page A to Page B: Page A's content script context should be destroyed. chrome.tabs.sendMessage(currentTabId, message) should only reach Page B's content script Only Page B should be able to respond to action button clicks (or other background to content messages). Actual Behavior: When navigating from Page A to Page B: Page A's content script context persists as a "zombie". chrome.tabs.sendMessage(currentTabId, message) reaches zombie context instead of the Page B's one. Hence, it looks like the extension is broken because the content script does not respond to the background messages. Details: Tab ids are properly recognized by both background and content script The problem does not always occur; it occurs on random occasions. It's quite easy to have it reproduced. It can be reproduced easier if user clicks ext icon during site loading (before it fully loaded), triggering ActionClick (ext icon click) event and then sending a msg upon it to the content script Regardless of whether the content script is injected into the tab using manifest.json, registerContentScripts, or executeScript, the problem is still there Once the problem occurs, e.g. user is on macys.com but zombie injected content script believes it's google.com (a previous page), even refreshing the tab doesnt change anything - zombie context is still there (thinking it's still google.com) . Changing a domain to something completely different one could help though. Then going back to macys.com could still lead to the described issue. A zombie content script does not have access to the page's console function and others. Example communication Sending following message from the background to the content script using chrome.tabs.sendMessage() { "tab": { "id": 155, "active": true, "url": "https://www.macys.com/", "title": "Macys.com" } } Results in the content-script zombie context response (the url is taken from the window.location.href) "message": { "type": "ActionClicked", "data": {} }, "response": { "data": { "windowUrl": "https://www.google.com/", "contentReached": true, "timestamp": "1,753,138,945,272", } } }

We're having trouble connecting to local area network websockets in Safari in the latest iOS26 Beta 3 (iPhone 14), both secure and unsecure. Code works < iOS26 & macOS, etc. -- Unsecure behaviour: need to call connectWebSocket() twice, establishes connection reliably. Calling connectWebSocket() once, will sometimes work, sometimes not. -- Secure behaviour: Error in debug console, even though the certificate has been accepted and the page is loaded as https. Error: WebSocket connection to 'wss://192.168.1.81/api/webSocket' failed: The certificate for this server is invalid. You might be connecting to a server that is pretending to be “192.168.1.81”, which could put your confidential information at risk. -- let apiEndpoint = window.location.hostname; if (apiEndpoint == null || apiEndpoint == '') { apiEndpoint = "192.168.1.81"; } function connectWebSocket() { if (webSocket && webSocket.readyState == 1) { return; } if (webSocket) { webSocket.close(); } webSocket = new WebSocket( (window.location.protocol === 'https:' ?

Steps to Reproduce 1. Create a native UIViewController with a WKWebView, loading test-1.html (contains position:fixed header that displays correctly). 2. Push another UIViewController also with a WKWebView, this time loading test-2.html. 3. In test-2.html, tap into the to summon the on-screen keyboard. 4. Without calling blur(), perform an interactive swipe-back gesture to go back to the first view controller. 5. Observe that the fixed header in test-1.html is now offset downward by approximately the height of the keyboard and does not return to its original position. demo-link : https://bugs.webkit.org/attachment.cgi?id=476324

Subject: Apple Pay JS - "Payment Was Cancelled by the User" Issue (Braintree + Server-Side Validation) Issue I am implementing Apple Pay using Braintree with server-side validation. However, when initiating the payment process, I receive the following error: [Log] Payment was cancelled by the user: (apple-pay-test-ucxp.onrender.com, line 286) Additionally, the console logs an ApplePayCancelEvent with: sessionError: {code: "unknown", info: {}} Despite successfully fetching merchant session validation data from the backend and completing merchant validation, the payment process does not proceed. Setup Details Payment Processor: Braintree (Apple Pay integration) Backend API: Fetching merchant session validation via createPaymentSessionGet Payment Processing: Using Braintree nonce tokenization Client-Side Code (Key Sections) session.onvalidatemerchant = async (event) => { try { const merchantSession = await fetch( "https://api.paybito.com:9443/ApplePay/api/apple-pay/createPaymentSessionGet", { method: "GET", headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" }, } ).then((res) => res.json()); session.completeMerchantValidation(merchantSession); } catch (err) { console.error("Merchant validation failed:", err); session.abort(); } }; session.onpaymentauthorized = async (event) => { try { const payload = await applePayInstance.tokenize({ token: event.payment.token, }); const response = await fetch( "https://api.paybito.com:9443/ApplePay/api/braintree/process-payment", { method: "POST", headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" }, body: JSON.stringify({ nonce: payload.nonce }), } ).then((res) => res.json()); if (response.success) { session.completePayment(ApplePaySession.STATUS_SUCCESS); } else { session.completePayment(ApplePaySession.STATUS_FAILURE); } } catch (err) { console.error("Payment authorization failed:", err); session.completePayment(ApplePaySession.STATUS_FAILURE); } }; Observations Merchant validation completes successfully. The error occurs before onpaymentauthorized executes. Session error code is unknown, making debugging difficult. Questions Has anyone encountered this issue before? Could this be related to how the validation session is fetched from the backend? Is there a way to obtain more meaningful debug information from Apple Pay? Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

hi Testing on OS26 Public Beta 6. In Safari, if you enter x homepage and scroll, the tab bar sticks to the bottom and moves. Make the keyboard appear in the search window When scrolling down on the Safari homepage again, the issue of not being able to stick to the bottom appears. Is it because the liquid glass UI was applied this time? and safari bug? Please let me know if I'm missing anything

Device: iPhone 15pro, ios26.0 (23A 341) IOS version: 26.0 (23A 341) When using position: sticky; bottom: 0, the div is expected to stick to the bottom of the viewport when the browser toolbar hides while scrolling. However, it stops at the height where the toolbar was, instead of moving down with the disappearing toolbar. In the image below, the red-bordered navigation shows the situation where it does not stick to the bottom. i

Title: Content Overlapping Address Bar After Clicking Links in Safari, tested on iPhone 11 (iOS 18.1.1) Description: When browsing in Safari on iPhone (iOS 18.1.1), the one-tab bar (address bar) collapses as expected when scrolling down a page. However, after clicking on a link and loading the next page, the content appears to overlap the collapsed address bar. This results in parts of the content being hidden or obscured by the address bar, which affects the user experience, especially on mobile devices with limited screen space. This issue is reproducible on Next.js applications and can be observed on websites such as rotterdam.nl and halderberge.nl. Steps to Reproduce: Enable the One-Tab Bar: Go to Settings > Safari and enable the one-tab bar feature. Open the website rotterdam.nl or halderberge.nl in Safari on an iPhone 11 (iOS 18.1.1). Scroll down the page so that the top address bar collapses. Click on any link on the page to load a new one. Once the new page loads, observe that the content appears on top of the collapsed address bar, causing parts of the content to be hidden or obscured. Expected Result: The content should not overlap or be hidden behind the collapsed address bar after the page reloads. The layout should adjust properly without interference from the address bar, providing a smooth user experience. Actual Result: When the new page loads, the content overlaps or appears on top of the collapsed address bar, causing parts of the content to be hidden or obscured. Device(s) Affected: iPhone 11 running iOS 18.1.1. OS Version: iOS 18.1.1 Technical Notes: To address this issue, the following solutions have been attempted with no success: Viewport Meta Tag: <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, viewport-fit=cover" /> This was added to help ensure proper layout on mobile devices, but did not resolve the issue. CSS Safe Area Insets: body { padding-top: env(safe-area-inset-top); } This CSS rule was applied to account for the safe area and prevent content from being hidden under the address bar, but it did not solve the overlapping issue. Scroll Position Adjustment (for scroll-to-top button): Adjusting the scroll behavior by changing the scroll position to {top: 1} instead of {top: 0} was a successful workaround to keep the address bar collapsed when clicking the "scroll to top" button. However, this did not resolve the issue when navigating between pages or changing routes, where the content still overlaps the collapsed address bar.

Hello Apple Developer Community, I'm experiencing an issue with PDF link interaction in WKWebView that appears to be specific to iOS 26. Problem Description: I'm loading a PDF in WKWebView.The links may vary widely and are not necessarily DPF, so I need to load them using WKWebView. On iOS versions prior to 26, links within the PDF are clickable and work correctly. On iOS 26, the same links are not clickable (no response when tapped). Expected Behavior: PDF links should remain clickable and functional across all iOS versions. What I've Tried: Tested opening the PDF directly in Safari on iOS 26 - links still not clickable This suggests the issue might be related to changes in the system's PDF rendering engine Reproduction Steps: Load the PDF URL in WKWebView Navigate to page 12 Attempt to tap the link Environment: Test Devices: iPhone 15(26.0 ) / iPhone 16 Pro Max(18.0.1 ) Xcode: 16.2 Questions: Is this an intentional change in iOS 26's PDF handling or WKWebView? If so, is there a new API or configuration to restore link interactivity? Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Up until some point relatively recently, I have been able to use Safari's web inspector to connect to the iOS simulator in order to debug our web application in development at http://localhost:8088. Now, the web inspector still OPENS, but it opens in a broken state. The context is available to select from Safari's "Develop" menu: Develop > "iPhone 16 Pro (Simulator)" > "localhost - login". It appears under the Safari heading if I have navigated to the web app in the browser, or under the Expo heading if I am accessing it through the webview in our React Native wrapper app. When I select it, the web inspector window does appear. However, once it opens, the Elements pane is empty, the Console pane is empty, expressions entered into the console are not evaluated, there's no content in Sources, Network, Storage, etc. Important notes: This broken state happens at http://localhost:8088 as well as http://127.0.0.1:8088, and it seems that the insecure context is the issue. The web inspector DOES work for HTTPS sites. If I navigate to, e.g., https://example.com in the simulator and connect the web inspector, everything works fine. The web inspector also works fine in Safari on macOS (OUTSIDE the simulator) when accessing non-HTTPS sites. It's only a problem for non-HTTPS sites when connecting to the simulator. A coworker has the same problem, so it is not isolated to my machine. I would enable TLS locally as a workaround, but this web app is very complex, and I know from experience that it is very difficult for various reasons to set it up properly for our project in development, and it will take significant non-trivial work to do so. So... Why is this happening? Is this expected behavior? Is there a way that I can debug my site on localhost without HTTPS?

I'm developing a web extension for Safari on iOS using MV3. The extension is working fine in Chrome, but in Safari I experience some seemingly random issues. I would like to debug it, but here is my problem. I have my iPhone connected via cable to Mac, and it works fine with XCode, so I assume this part is OK. I open Safari or Safari Tech Preview (doesn't matter) on my Mac, developers options are enabled, and in the Develop menu, under my iPhone section, there are things I can debug. There is an entry "[Ext name] - Extension Service Worker" but when I click it, it's empty. Web inspector pops up, but there are no network requests, no logs, nothing. I know the extension is working, because I can stream log to my HTTP server, but I don't see them here at all. I can use console to trigger commands like chrome.storage.local.get(null, console.log) and it shows my local store, so why I don't see any logs? Also, the background script is not visible in the Sources tab, just one weird request: navigator.serviceWorker.register('safari-web-extension://E3449EA7-EC25-4696-8E6C-[ID HERE]/background.js'); </script> Any ideas what went wrong? The entire team of 4 people has the same issue and we can't move forward because of that. Also, the Develop => Service workers or any other menu section doesn't show my service worker. Logs for websites running on my phone are visible and in general web inspector for them works fine.

Hi all, With version 18.4 beta, I have a problem with the display of webviews in the app. In particular, the app of my bank has webviews inside it, and as they are not loading, I am unable to access it. Can you help me? Thank you.

When CHIPS was introduced in 18.4 it worked well, however on 18.5 it does not appear to work. There do not appear to be release notes about this in 18.5, so can someone provide definitive if this is a defect that will be fixed, or have they already been deprecated?

We’re currently working on an OTT-based application where we integrate Google Ad Manager to serve video ads. As part of the ad experience, users often see a “Learn More” CTA (Call to Action) on these ads. As per our current requirement, when a user taps “Learn More” on an ad: • The link should open in Safari (i.e., an external browser) on iOS devices • The Safari browser should ideally open in portrait orientation, as the ad content and layout are optimised for portrait mode However, based on our understanding and technical constraints on iOS, it appears that: • Orientation control is restricted to the app’s own context. • Once Safari is launched via UIApplication.shared.open, we no longer have control over how it behaves in terms of orientation. • iOS system behaviour determines Safari’s orientation based on the device’s physical orientation and Safari’s own internal configuration. Could you please confirm if there’s any supported way (via SDK, deep link config, or otherwise) to enforce portrait orientation in Safari when opening such external URLs from within an iOS app? If this is not technically feasible, we would appreciate any best practices or alternatives you can suggest for ensuring a consistent user experience.

I’m currently developing an application using WKWebView.

This is my first post, so please forgive me if it is to the wrong area. I've been using Tahoe for a few days and, overall, it's very stable. But the one thing that has bothered me to no end is Safari's new behavior with respect to its header (Address bar, Favorite bookmarks bar, tab bar) background color. The web content of the active tab seems to affect everything - and oftentimes makes things completely unreadable - at least in "Dark" mode. For instance, if a web page uses a white background, the Favorites bookmark labels are the same color as the bookmark background, so reading the labels is simply impossible. At other times, they're just very difficult to read. Similarly, it is almost always impossible to tell which tab is the active one - my only workaround is to try 100% brightness....or to just guess. When Apple previously experimented with letting content bleed through to the top, there was a setting for stopping it - but I don't see such a setting anymore. Do you you know of any way to stop this effect?
