WebAuthn can be used in Safari, but when using it with WKWebView, you need to set the default browser definition (com.apple.developer.web-browser). Is this correct? Also, is it possible that the terms of use will change or that it will no longer be available in WKWebView in the future?

I built a web application using the Apple Pay on the Web Interactive Demo with the Payment Request API, but encountered a few issues: The initiated web Apple Pay interface shows a spinning circle at the bottom and cannot proceed with payment（Bottom display:正在处理）. What could be causing this? How to set up sandbox testing for payments? How to asynchronously and synchronously retrieve payment results (backend code to fetch payment results)? The demo only shows frontend code using await response.complete("success"); for retrieving payment results my demo URL： https://shop.wowseer.com/rsolomakhin/pr/applepay/

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

Hello, why is Safari blocking my domains? https://fitgel.ru https://fittoma.ru https://ohota.pro There are no errors in them, other browsers respond normally.

我使用Apple Pay on the Web Interactive Demo构建了一个web应用使用的是Payment Request API方式，但是遇到了几个问题： 拉起的web Apple Pay 底部一直转圈圈无法付款，这个是什么问题？ 如何设置sandbox测试付款呢？ 如何异步、同步获取支付结果（后端代码获取支付结果）？demo只有await response.complete("success");前端代码获取支付结果的操作 demo网址: https://shop.wowseer.com/rsolomakhin/pr/applepay/

We would appreciate it if you could provide the detailed flow of recurring payments and the unsubscribe process using the Apple Pay JS API, specifically in cases where the PSP decrypts the Apple Pay token before sending it to the payment gateway. Thank you very much for your kind assistance.

With most recent Safari update, our page started having some of it's core functionality broken while users access it on Private mode due to Fingerprinting protection. The issue is that the code that breaks is our first-party code and I want understand why it is breaking and how to properly fix it. One thing we discovered was that a service of ours that uses the same code base doesn't have these issues and current assumption is that their page bundles are served on the same domain as the actual page request, while ours is coming from a different one. The other assumption was that the domain which we use for serving the bundles of the page are set on the domain that is flagged as tracking domain. Is there some documentation on how Safari decides which code is allowed reading user inputs and which isn't and what is the appropriate approach to fix this issue as it would be possible that these changes get release as default in the future?

Hello Community, My application was rejected by Apple App Review, citing Guideline 4.7 and "non-embedded," which I believe is incorrect. All transactions are signed and sent directly through the app with explicit user permission. Additionally, there's an issue with min apps where users can access the functionality via a browser to interact with the service. This feature has been part of my old application and hasn't changed in the new update. It’s the same functionality as used by popular wallets like Metamask Uniswap Coinbase Which also employ web3 technology. Over the past two weeks, I've tried to communicate with Apple's support team but have been ignored or received only generic rejection emails. This has left me frustrated and concerned about the time and resources I’ve invested in developing and supporting this app. Could you please help me find a solution? Your assistance would be greatly appreciated!

I am following up on Thread (https://aninterestingwebsite.com/forums/thread/733233). Currently, SFSafariExtensionManager.getStateOfSafariExtension only returns if an extension is enabled, but not if "Allow in Private Browsing" is toggled on. Is there an API in macOS 26 and Safari 19 that allows a native Safari App Extension to detect this specific permission?

I'm not loving the huge Favorites icons in Safari on MacOS 26, is there a way to reduce the size of them so that we can see more favorites on the list without scrolling down?

iOS 26 (from beta 1 to beta 2) We have a VPN app that installs a per-app VPN profile with SafariDomains to filter Safari network traffic. This setup works as expected on iOS versions lower than 26.0. See here more details on SafariDomains: https://aninterestingwebsite.com/business/documentation/Configuration-Profile-Reference.pdf On iOS 26, all SafariDomains configured to go through the per-app VPN result in the following error: "Safari can’t open the page. The error was: Unknown Error" Additional Details: Only SafariDomains encounter this error. Other managed apps traffic through the per-app VPN works correctly. Steps to Reproduce: Install the VPN app with a per-app VPN profile. Configure SafariDomains with any URL (e.g., example.com). Open Safari and navigate to the configured URL. Example Configuration: We tested with a simple example by adding only one URL to SafariDomains (example.com). Logs from the console were captured at the moment Safari opened and encountered the error. safari_google2.txt Has anyone else encountered this issue on iOS 26? Any insights or solutions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

We have a Smart App Banner (including App Clip) on our website and have noticed today that the banner's background color has changed. It no longer has the default white background and blue button color, instead it has a background color that matches our page's background, and even the color of the button has changed. What's interesting is that we have not triggered this change at all. The colors seemingly changed by themselves. Looking at the Apple Documentation, no customization options are mentioned. Searching the web, the theme-color meta tag is mentioned in relation to this, however we haven't even included that tag on our page. What is triggering this color change then and how can we influence it?

Hello, I am implementing video calling on iOS and need to support Picture in Picture (PiP) behavior similar to FaceTime or WhatsApp. What works Audio continues correctly in background CallKit UI works as expected Video works correctly while the app is in the foreground What I’m trying to achieve When the user presses the Home button or switches apps, I want to show a system Picture in Picture window (floating video outside the app). Current setup Video is rendered via WebRTC The video is displayed inside a WKWebView (HTML / JavaScript) PiP works only while the app is foregrounded When the app backgrounds, the video disappears (only audio remains) Questions Does iOS support system Picture in Picture for: WebRTC video WKWebView / HTML video 2 Is AVPictureInPictureController limited only to: AVPlayerLayer AVSampleBufferDisplayLayer 3 If PiP requires native rendering: Is it mandatory to render WebRTC frames natively using AVSampleBufferDisplayLayer? Is PiP explicitly unsupported for WebView / HTML video? 📌 Clarification Apps like FaceTime and WhatsApp are able to show PiP outside the app. I want to understand whether this behavior is achievable only with native video pipelines, or if WebView-based video is fundamentally restricted by iOS. Any official clarification or documentation reference would be appreciated. Thank you.

iOS 26 introduced a significant step back for PWAs - you now need at least five taps to add a PWA to your home screen. Android has excellent PWA support - it takes 1 tap to install an app, and the platform support is great, and web apps feel amazing. The gap between the platforms has now increased even further. My team and I were hoping for better PWA support, but now we are very worried about the direction - it puts us in a difficult situation. I'm sure many developers face a similar challenge. What's the current status of PWAs in iOS? Is Apple aiming to improve its support in the near future? Is there a roadmap, tech previews, or betas addressing the issue?

We confirmed a problem at Safari on iPadOS 18.2 or after version. For confirmation, we made a HTML document (see below HTML1) what include ‘method="POST" target="_blank"’ and tested the form however server received GET method and there is no parameter, server did not receive “id” parameter. We confirmed that fact in captured packet and log file that on the server. HTML1: We also made another HTML document (see below HTML2) what include submit button, but the server received GET method as above. HTML2: And we also confirmed that it behaves differently depending on the network environment. If the form targets a name that does not exist (ex. target=” A12345”), behaves differently http or https. http: Safari opened new tag, but the server received GET method. Normally, Safari open new tag and the server receive POST method. https: Safari opened new tag, and the server received POST method. It is normally. If the form targets ‘_blank’, the server received GET method on http or https both. We think Safari change the method POST to GET and delete parameters. It is not conformed to the HTML specification if is that true. We confirmed it was not happened at Safari on iPadOS 17.4, and Windows PC (Edge, Chrome). The method what the server received is POST. We find same problem in Apple Support Community (see below URL). https://discussionsjapan.apple.com/thread/255987615 (Described in Japanese) Is it a bug in Safari on iPadOS 18.2 or after version? Do you have plan to fix? Or if fixed the bug, when do you release fixed version.

I'm unclear on the implications of Apple's App Review Guideline 5.2.2: If your app uses, accesses, monetizes access to, or displays content from a third-party service, ensure that you are specifically permitted to do so under the service’s terms of use. Authorization must be provided upon request. If a paid subscription app uses a licensed search API to retrieve and display links to publicly available third-party web content, is the API license generally enough for compliance? Or does Apple expect separate authorization from each underlying website whose content appears in the search results?

Hi team, may I know how I can access the report for the Safari Smart App Banner here please? We want to know how many people taps to views or install the app from that specific banner. Please advise on this. Thank you.

While implementing Apple Maps into our web application, I have a scenario where I want to be able to drag and move some of my custom annotations around. While that is working, when "picking up" the annotation before dragging it, there is an animation which I believe is to represent the human interaction of picking up a pin from a map, I would like to cancel that animation and thought that would be possible by calling preventDefault() in the emitted long-press event, which the documentation states that annotations should emit if they are draggable. The thing is that I don't get this event to emit when long pressing an annotation. So I believe that I have found a bug. It's in this paragraph in the documentation https://aninterestingwebsite.com/documentation/mapkitjs/handling-map-events#Respond-to-map-interaction-events A long press occurs on the map outside an annotation. A long press may be the beginning of a panning or pinching gesture on the map. You can prevent the gesture from starting by calling the preventDefault() method of the event. Annotations need to be draggable to dispatch long-press events. In anybody else experiencing this or do you see any clear fix for this? Maybe there is another way to cancel that "picking up the annotation for dragging" animation. I have seemed to try anything else.

We operate a native iOS app that authenticates users via the system browser using OIDC against a 3rd party SaaS authentication broker, which then performs authentication against the individual customer IdPs using SAML within the browser session, and then completes the OIDC login between the broker and our application. Our application initiates the OIDC login using ASWebAuthenticationSession, using the broker’s library, against the broker, and at that point the authentication workflow is handled by the broker. At the beginning of the login session, the broker sets a session-identifying cookie for their domain, before redirecting the user to their company’s identity provider to authenticate, which then redirects the user back to the broker. Intermittently, Mobile Safari does not include that previously set cookie on the final communication with the broker, when being redirected from the IdP as the final step of the SAML portion of the login workflow. When the cookie is missing, the broker cannot correlate the authentication response to the original request and the login fails, even though the user successfully authenticated at their identity provider. The same user can sometimes find success after retrying on the same device minutes later, without any changes. When we first started diagnosing this issue, we were seeing about a 20% rate of these errors across all Mobile Safari logins, which we can identify fairly conclusively (from provider logs, based on their guidance) as being caused by the session cookie set in one request not being provided on the subsequent request to the same domain. Our authentication broker provider has indicated, based on their server logs, and logs from an affected device, that this behavior is caused by Mobile Safari’s Intelligent Tracking Protection (ITP) causing Mobile Safari to not send the login session cookie to the broker when handling the SAML redirect from the IdP back to them. Our authentication broker provider recommended that we switch the SAML Request binding setting from POST to Redirect in the SAML configurations against our customer IdPs, which reduced the rate of these errors to about 5% for most of our customers. However, we have at least one customer which is still seeing about a 20% rate in these errors for Mobile Safari logins after this change, and even a 5% error rate seems high. Our authentication broker has not been able to suggest any further remediation options, and has suggested we contact Apple for assistance. Our questions are: Is it reasonable to assume that ITP is causing this issue? Is there any way to confirm, conclusively, that ITP has caused a previously-set cookie to not be provided on a subsequent request to the same domain, i.e. via device logs? If so, are there any steps which can be taken to reduce or eliminate this error? Changes to how ASWebAuthenticationSession is invoked? Changes to the Authentication Broker which would reduce the chance of ITP being triggered? Changes to the Customer IdP configuration which would reduce the chance of ITP being triggered?
