I have a business scenario where I want to guide users to Safari and open a Safari extension. How can I open Safari from my app and navigate to a specific webpage?

PWA works perfectly fine in safari browsers in mac but in mobile devices it is not working it just shows, There is no internet connection. found a fix from ios release - https://developer.apple.com/documentation/safari-release-notes/safari-17_2-release-notes but actually it is not solving the issue. in my case even it is not throwing the issue - fix is - Fixed a cache miss bug in DOMCache that triggered service worker fetch errors.

Is there any supported mechanism in Safari Web Extensions (MV3) for capturing or logging network request data (like fetch, XHR, or webRequest) triggered by the web page?

I have a very specific issue that happens only on iOS Simulator version 18.4. It does NOT happen when I run my app on a real iOS 18.4 device through Testflight. My app displays a WebView (courtesy of Capacitor, url scheme capacitor://). Inside that Webview I'm using Firebase JS API (11.2.0) and calling signInWithEmailAndPassword, which works well in all other contexts, i.e. browser, Android webview, iOS webview in all other Simulator versions, and on real devices. Only when running in Simulator 18.4, I get a failed network request: cannot parse response Fetch API cannot load https://identitytoolkit.googleapis.com/v1/accounts:signInWithPassword?... due to access control checks. Failed to load resource: cannot parse reponse error: FirebaseError: (auth/network-request-failed) Everything is working correctly for both: Capacitor app webview installed on a real 18.4 device with Testflight Safari (non-webview) in the 18.4 Simulator The issue is severe for us, because we are unable to develop our app and test it in the simulator on 18.4 Simulator before pushing it through Testflight internal release. Request headers on the failed request (no response status or headers available).

Hi everyone, We're building a web application using Next.js that captures around 40 images across different routes as part of a guided user flow. At the beginning of the process, we explicitly request camera permission using navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia(...), and the user grants it successfully. However, as users proceed through the flow (navigating between routes), Safari on iOS intermittently re-prompts for camera access—despite the initial permission already being granted and the origin (domain) remaining unchanged. This repeated prompting interrupts the user experience significantly. What we’ve tried: Ensuring camera access is requested only once and reused where possible. Using persistent media stream across routes (where feasible). Testing across different iOS versions to confirm consistency. Questions: Is there a known workaround or best practice to persist camera access across route transitions in a SPA/PWA context on iOS? Are there any Safari-specific behaviors or restrictions related to WebRTC / getUserMedia we should be aware of? Would embedding the camera view in an iframe or maintaining a persistent component help avoid re-prompting? Any guidance or shared experience would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Python version 3.9.1 Selenium version 4.25.0 Safari version 18.1.1 I want to operate Safari using Selenium. For this purpose, I would like to set the UserAgent to iOS and change the viewport. What should I do? The following is the content programmed with the Chrome driver. I would like to achieve this using the Safari driver. import time,os import chromedriver_binary from selenium import webdriver from selenium.webdriver import Safari from selenium.webdriver.safari.options import Options as SafariOptions from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC from selenium.webdriver.support.select import Select from selenium.webdriver.chrome import service # selenium 4 from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service as ChromeService from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=ChromeService(ChromeDriverManager().install()),options = chrome_options) # iPhone 13 params viewport = { "width": 390, "height": 844, "deviceScaleFactor": 3, "mobile": True } #Chrome setting ua = "Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 15_0 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/15.4 Mobile/15E148 Safari/604.1" driver.execute_cdp_cmd("Emulation.setDeviceMetricsOverride", viewport) # change user agent driver.execute_cdp_cmd("Emulation.setUserAgentOverride", {"userAgent": ua}) # ページにアクセス driver.get("https://hogehoge")

Safari throw a ViewTransition error, called ' Unhandled Promise Rejection: AbortError: Old view transition aborted by new view transition.' however, i don't find how to catch it. i used 'try..catch' or Promise.catch, or catch it in finished/ready/updateCallbackDone Promise. These all don't work.

Hello everyone, We are encountering a specific issue on iOS devices (iPhone 15 Pro in our case) when using Safari and Chrome. The problem occurs when switching an element's overflow-x property from hidden to scroll while the user keeps their finger on the screen. Problem Description: The overflow-x property change does not trigger a reflow or render update immediately. This behavior causes the element to remain visually stuck in the previous hidden state until the user lifts their finger and interacts again. Context: The element is animated. The issue happens consistently when the user's finger remains on the screen during the property transition. What We’ve Tried: Explicitly forcing styles using element.style in JavaScript. Triggering element.offsetWidth or getBoundingClientRect() to force reflow. Applying manual transform changes in combination with overflow updates. Unfortunately, none of these approaches resolve the issue in real-time while the user’s finger is on the screen. Questions: Is there a recommended way to force a reflow or repaint in Safari/Chrome on iOS under these conditions? Are there known limitations with overflow-x transitions and user touch events on iOS? Are there any workarounds or best practices to handle such cases? Thank you in advance for any insights!

In my application, I use HTML pages to display the interface. Since it’s a cross-platform app, the pages and interactions work properly on other platforms. However, in WebKit, because HTTPS protocol is used, JS requests from the page cannot use the ws protocol but must use the wss protocol under HTTPS. Is there any way to allow a webpage under HTTPS to use ws requests normally? Google Chrome can do this.

Hello. We are adding a Safari extension to our app and we have some questions about communication between the app and its extension. We have added the nativeMessaging permission to the extension so that it can communicate with the app and communication between both are doing very well. Our question is about the security of communications between the two. How can we be sure the native app communicates well with the correct extension? Can the Safari extension communicate with another native app or can the native app receive messages from another extension?

Hello I built a WordPress website with a three.js/react front page. On iOS chrome, Android chrome, and desktop chrome all is working well. However, on Safari mobile when the animation loads a downward swipe causes the page to refresh rather than scroll as is intended and working correctly on all the other browsers. Strangely, scroll up works initially and then downward scroll begins to work. I have tried various iterations of overscroll behavior but still cannot aolbe the issue. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi all, Chrome has it already - animation-timeline aka scroll-animations. I can nowhere find any informations on what's the status in Safari/Webkit. Seems like they do not have it on the agenda at all? Does anyone know anything - I wanted to push a feature request for that - but also seem there is no feature request list anymore for webkit. See: https://www.w3.org/TR/scroll-animations/ Cheers and kind regards!

I want to confirm the specifications and behavior of Safari. We have a system built on Microsoft Azure that uses Azure AD B2C for authentication. When we logging in, there is a phone authentication feature where a call is made to the registered phone number. However, this phone authentication does not work properly only on iPhone's Safari. The specific situation is listed below: When performing phone authentication on iPhone's Safari, a call is made from Azure AD B2C, and pressing the # button on the Safari screen can be done. But then, it transitions to an error screen. We tried multiple iPhone devices and multiple iOS versions, but the result was the same. But when accessing the system on a PC, and performing phone authentication, it works without any errors. Also when we use browsers other than Safari (for example, Google Chrome and Firefox) on the iPhone, the phone authentication works without any errors, too. Even with Safari, if the device displaying the login screen and the device making the call are different, phone authentication works without any errors, too.(it fails if they are the same device). We reached out Microsoft about this issue, and they responded that: The Azure resource called FrontDoor at the front end of Azure AD B2C supports the HTTP/2 protocol, and HTTP/2 protocol is used in communication with Safari. In Safari's HTTP/2 communication, when a call is received while the screen is displayed, a reset packet is sent to the web server (in this case, the web server is FrontDoor). This interrupts the session, causing a session termination error on the Azure AD B2C side, and phone authentication fails. Therefore, we would like to ask you the following two points: In HTTP/2 communication, does the Safari browser send a reset packet to the web server when it receives a phone call? If so, what is the cause of this behavior? And are there any measures to prevent the reset packet from being sent?

I'm referring to the following: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/automaticassessmentconfiguration I can't find this information anywhere. I'm wondering if I can enable and disable this function in Safari or other browsers on my website.

Hello, When I view my website (lasaluade) on iphone or ipad the top of my page bodies are cut off (3-4 first lines). However, on PC, Mac or Android everything is OK (see screenshots). For the record, I built this site with Wordpress and Divi Builder, and I've the same result on Safari and Chrome. Not being a developer, I don't know where to look (I just think it's iOS-related). Have you already had this problem? Do you have any ideas? Thanks for your help!

I'm encountering an issue with ReactPlayer where videos fail to play when the playback rate is set to 3x, but this problem only occurs on iOS. The same functionality works perfectly fine on Android devices and desktop browsers like Chrome and Firefox. Here are the details of my setup: ReactPlayer version: 2.16.0 Video format: [MP4, hls ] Tested devices: iPhone 13 Expected behavior: Videos should play smoothly at 3x speed. Actual behavior: Videos fail to load or play when playbackRate is set to 3.0. I've read that iOS Safari might have limitations regarding playback rate due to performance or energy efficiency, but I couldn't find any official documentation to confirm this. If anyone has faced a similar issue or knows the root cause (or a workaround), I'd really appreciate your insights. Additionally, if there are official resources or documentation about playback rate limitations on iOS Safari, please share them. Thanks in advance for your help!

I am using GTM in my project, and the OneTrust cookie consent script is loading in GTM. After ruling out iOS 18.3.1, I am unable to click on the OneTrust preference center since the GTM script is not loading. This issue i faced for safari browser

Since the transition to iOS 18.4, we have been having an issue where when loading an m3u8 file specified in the src attribute of a video tag in WKWebView, the ts file is loaded repeatedly. Are there any good ideas for this? Also, if there have been any changes to the specifications of WKWebView, we would appreciate it if you could let us know.

I want to write an app, that lets users restore all oben windows and tabs from any given point in a TimeMachine backup. The store location seems to have changed. In earlier versions it was possible to restore the open windows and tabs by retrieving /Users/[UserName]/Library/Containers/com.apple.Safari/Data/Library/Safari/SafariTabs.db …/SafariTabs.db-shm …/SafariTabs.db-wal As of 18.3 this doesn’t work any more, even though these files get updated with the use of Safari What else would I need to retrieve from a back up disk? Thank you very much for any hints!
