I have a WKWebView that contains a js text editor, built on top of a content editable div. Currently, inline predictions on Mac break the text editors functionality significantly every time there's a prediction. There's not a way for me to fix this on the js side unless I can know when a prediction is shown. I've tried disabling inline predictions and writing tools with the web view config, but it doesn't work: let config = WKWebViewConfiguration() config.writingToolsBehavior = .none config.allowsInlinePredictions = false let webView = WKWebView(frame: .zero, configuration: config) I've also tried disabling all spellcheck and autocorrect features in the html but that doesn't work either: <div contenteditable="true" spellcheck="false" autocomplete="off" autocorrect="off" autocapitalize="off"></div> Is there anything I can do to turn it off? Or, is it possible to know when the WebView is predicting text?

Hi, I'm using a webview in Swift, where I load an html file locally. Basically I have an angular project built and loaded directly into my app bundle. The webview requires the use of the camera. I request permissions via and javascript, the pop-up appears, I accept the permissions and the app works correctly. Only that after a certain number of seconds, the permissions are requested again. It's as if the webview doesn't cache the accepted permissions. Is this normal behavior?

On iPhone 16 running iOS 18.0(Xcode 16.2), cookies configured with SameSite=None; Secure fail to apply correctly—iOS forcibly converts the attribute to SameSite=Lax. As a result, cross-site requests from H5 pages within our app cannot carry the required cookies, causing failures. Can anyone help me on this? Thanks in advance.

window.location.href = "tel:02-xxxx-xxxx" Can the development team modify the screen text? Or can the country code be erased? What are the reasons for continuing to be "on the phone" if the country code is automatically attached to the phone like this?

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", } } }

Seeing an issue in some versions of Safari (16.6, 18.3, 18.5) where an APNG converted to AVIF does not support transparency. Instead of a transparent background, the background is filled with black.

It‘s called Track Configuration API found in the iOS 26.0 Public Beta 5. No explanation anywhere on the web Or release notes, it’s not mentioned anywhere. I‘m very interested in new tracking innovations. And another small thing I‘ve never found out, what is „fingerprint related quirk“ is that an insider joke Or something? I don‘t know it‘s actions. Thank you for answering

Hi all, Question: Can Apple confirm that, on macOS 15 without MDM/supervision, there is no supported API, entitlement, auth right, or config file that can enable a Safari App Extension without some form of user interaction? Environment • OS / Safari: macOS 15.0.1 (Sequoia), Safari 18.x • Distribution: Signed, notarized, stapled PKG installs a host app that contains a Safari App Extension • Management: No MDM allowed (and thus no supervision) • Goal: Have the extension come up enabled immediately after install, without requiring the user to click the checkbox in Safari Settings ▸ Extensions What we already know / tried Normal install flow – After PKG install, the extension shows up disabled. User must check the box to enable. SFSafariApplication.showPreferencesForExtension(...) – We can deep‑link the user to our row, but they still need to click “Enable.” Accessibility/UI scripting – We can script the click if the user grants our helper Accessibility permission. That still involves user interaction. .mobileconfig with Safari Extensions Management (AlwaysOn) – From what I can tell, this requires a supervised device enrolled in MDM. Installing that profile manually on an unsupervised Mac does not enforce the “AlwaysOn” state. Auth rights / Developer mode – Looked at auth.db rights like com.apple.Safari.allow-unsigned-app-extensions, and the Develop menu “Allow Unsigned Extensions.” Neither appears to auto‑enable a signed extension, and we don’t want to use private/unsupported APIs anyway. Thanks in advance for any clarification.

Hello, I find it difficult to find information about this function, but Apple would allow you to download a Wallet ticket via a JWT signed token, without going through a pkpass, by calling the url https://wallet.apple.com/push/pass? Jwt= + jwt I have made several attempts with a different payload, either I am redirected to the Apple Pay presentation page, or I have a 403 error. I think I'm on my way, but I must miss a step in my signature. Could someone help me and give me the structure or how to manage the key? At the moment I use an Identifiers type PassType ID linked to a Certificate. Has anyone heard of this novelty? According to ChatGPT it should date from iOS 16-18 and potentially not be open to all devs. Thank you! Beautiful day

Hello. I have a project that loads a page using jquery 3.6.3 in WKWebView. When I try this on iOS developer beta 4, WKWebView malfunctions and the page does not load properly. If I remove jquery, the page loads. Even if I update jquery to the latest version, the problem remains the same. This problem did not occur until developer beta 3.

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.

I've been unable to successfully get a webpage to send a message to a Safari web extension, no matter what I try doing. I've added the following to my manifest.json file, and it's running manifest v3 { "externally_connectable": { "matches": [ "*://mywebsite.com/*", "*://localhost:3000/*" ] } } My web page executes the following code snippet. I've tried this both while running my site locally (on localhost) and pushed to production. let safariExtensionId = "co.companyname.productname.Extension (ABCD1234)" browser.runtime.sendMessage(safariExtensionId, { greeting: "hello"}, function(response) { console.log("Received response from background page"); console.log(response.farewell); } ); In the Safari web extension's background.js file, I've added the following onMessageExternal listener: browser.runtime.onMessageExternal.addListener((message, sender, sendResponse) => { console.log("Received message from the sender."); console.log(message.greeting); sendResponse({ farewell: "Goodbye!" }); }); This is directly copied from the instructions in this WWDC video: https://aninterestingwebsite.com/documentation/safariservices/messaging-between-a-webpage-and-your-safari-web-extension It's also extremely difficult to debug what's happening since the extensions service working frequently does not appear in the Web Extension Background Content menu Is there something I'm doing wrong, or a bug I'm not aware of?

We are building a hybrid iOS app using Angular (web) rendered inside a WKWebView, hosted by a native Swift app. Communication between the Angular UI and native Swift code is done using WKScriptMessageHandler. The app mostly works without issues, but in rare edge cases, we’re seeing crashes on the main thread, and the crash is reported in Firebase Crashlytics. The root cause appears related to CFRelease and WKScriptMessageHandler.

Hi Developers, I am working on a small project and I noticed that my website header looks different in Safari on macOS compared to Windows browsers like Chrome and Edge. In Safari, the header text and spacing look slightly shifted (screenshot attached). On Windows browsers, everything looks perfectly aligned. Here is my live project for reference: https://gratuitycalculatorae.com/ Screenshot from Safari (macOS): Is this related to Safari-specific CSS rendering? Should I use -webkit- specific fixes or is there a better cross-browser solution? Any guidance or best practices would be really helpful. Thanks
