Create shortcut to open chrome with url and put it on the desktop. Tap the shortcut. Tap the username text field. When launching Safari from an iOS shortcut on an iOS device with a valid passkey registered, the passkey suggestion does not appear; instead, the password suggestion appears sometimes.

I'm building a macOS extension that needs to track multi-step navigation chains (A → B → C) to adjust behavior based on where users came from. Current approach: Using webNavigation.onBeforeNavigate to detect intermediate steps, but experiencing issues in Safari that don't occur on Chrome/Firefox/Edge. Questions: Is webNavigation the right API for tracking redirect chains in Safari? Does ITP/Private Browsing affect event delivery? Any alternative approaches recommended? (Safari version 26.0.1) Any guidance appreciated!

The passkey authentication dialog appears, and after unlocking with Touch ID, the dialog closes without any notification of success or failure. This issue occurs with high frequency. access to the https://passkeys-demo.appspot.com/ register account and create passkey. logoff access to the url again you can see the passkey dialog unlock device then the dialog disappears nothing happens reload the page proceed 5) to 6) nothing happens or success webauthn.

I coded two demo websites as follows (both written in NextJS): Website 1: I coded an interval counter that increments every 1 second. Website 2: I used the MediaRecorder API (described in the WebKit documentation: https://webkit.org/blog/11353/mediarecorder-api/). In the ondataavailable function, I periodically send a blob (once every 1 second) to my server. In the backend, I coded a POST API to upload this blob. I noticed that with website 1, the interval doesn't work when I run Safari in the background, even on iOS and iPadOS. However, website 2 works, meaning it still calls my API normally (I tried running Safari in the background for about 1-2 hours and it worked). So, does this mean Apple allows native APIs like MediaRecorder and its callbacks to run in the background?

Hello Friends, This is my first post so would love any suggestions on how to make posts here. So I have a shopify widget which is type of clone for Instagram stories, with videos but I noticed some issues where my videos are kind of unresponsive or just shuts down. Below is the screen shot of the issue: This problem I noticed on iPhone 11 Pro on clients phone, the IOS version is below 26. Some times my iPhone 13 also faces same issue but only when battery is low and multiple heavy apps are opened. Attached a code block also: {validStories.map((story) => { const videoUrl = extractVideoUrl(story.sv?.[0]?.m); const storyThumbnail = story.tu && story.tu.length > 0 ? story.tu : null; const videoThumbnail = story.sv?.[0]?.m?.[0]?.t && story.sv[0].m[0].t.length > 0 ? story.sv[0].m[0].t : null; const thumbnailUrl = storyThumbnail || videoThumbnail; const hasThumbnail = !!thumbnailUrl; const isPlaying = playingVideoIds.has(story.i); const shouldRenderWrapper = hasThumbnail || isPlaying; return ( <div key={story.i} className="ins-story-item" onClick={(e) => { handleActiveStoryChange(story.i, e); handleActiveVideoId(story.i); }} style={{ position: "relative", zIndex: 1 }} > {shouldRenderWrapper && ( <div className="ins-story-circle-wrapper" style={{ position: "relative", overflow: "hidden" }} > {hasThumbnail && !isPlaying && ( <img src={thumbnailUrl} alt={story.t} className="ins-story-image" onError={() => { console.log( `[Story ${story.i}] Thumbnail failed to load: ${thumbnailUrl}` ); }} /> )} <video src={videoUrl} className="ins-story-video" autoPlay={true} muted playsInline loop onLoadedData={() => handleVideoPlaying(story.i)} onPlaying={() => handleVideoPlaying(story.i)} onError={(e) => { console.log(`[Story ${story.i}] Video error`, e); }} /> </div> )} {story.t !== "New Collection" && ( <span className="ins-story-title">{story.t}</span> )} </div> ); })} </div> {activeStoryId && <StoryModal />} </>```

Issue: On Safari, two Smart App Banners appear for the same webpage when the iOS app is installed. Cause: • Banner 1: Native Apple Smart App Banner, automatically triggered by Safari via AASA / Universal Links. • Banner 2: Smart banner injected by a third-party SDK (Branch.io). • Both operate independently, resulting in duplicate banners. Finding: Safari’s native Smart App Banner behavior is system-controlled and cannot be disabled programmatically using web rules or JavaScript while Universal Links are enabled. Question: Is this behavior expected by design? Is there any Apple-supported way to suppress the native Smart App Banner when using a third-party banner, or is the recommended approach to rely on only one banner system?

We're trying to implement Cross-domain session check for SSO by making CORS request. is Intelligent Tracking Prevention blocks all cookies in CORS requests? I saw all cookies are blocked in CORS requests. We are not able to check the auth session in source domain. Are there anyway to bypass this without user interaction? benefitier.com -> source.com

Expected Behavior: Display the digit “6”. Actual Behavior: The rendered character appears as a composite glyph—the left half resembles “9” and the right half resembles “6”, resulting in a malformed digit. other examples： Environment & Characteristics: Occurs intermittently on iPhone 15 Pro Max and iPhone 16 Pro Max. Reproducible within the Taobao App, specifically in WKWebView. Font Used: AlibabaSans102_v1_TaoBao-Bd.ttf

Summary: We are facing a serious issue on iPhone where multiple passkey authentication problems occur when accessing passkey-enabled login pages via shortcuts placed on the iPhone Home Screen. These issues may also occur when opening the same pages directly in a standard browser window. However, launching the login pages from a Home Screen shortcut appears to increase the likelihood of encountering these issues. Affected Services (examples, not exhaustive): Amazon GitHub Adobe Observed Issues: Issue 1: A passkey authentication dialog/popup shows two times without any user operation: What happens due to this issue: Login does not complete after the first passkey authentication. A second passkey authentication UI automatically appears. Completing or canceling the second authentication allows the login to proceed. Issue 2: Login remains stuck until the user manually invokes passkey again What happens due to this issue: The login page does not advance after the first authentication. The user must tap the ID/username field again to manually trigger the passkey UI. Completing the second authentication enables login. Issue 3: Automatic second authentication occurs, but login still fails What happens due to this issue: A second automatic authentication UI appears. Login still does not complete. Tapping the ID field no longer opens the passkey UI; instead, the password auto-fill panel appears. Passkey login becomes impossible. Observed reproduction steps (not guaranteed but most consistently observed): On iPhone, navigate to a passkey-enabled login page (e.g., Amazon, GitHub, Adobe) using a browser. Create a shortcut from the browser's share menu and place it on the Home Screen. Launch the login page from the Home Screen shortcut. Tap the ID/username field to invoke the passkey prompt. Complete passkey authentication. → One of the issues described above occurs. Environment: Device: iPhone SE OS: iOS 18.6.2

We are developing a mobile-first, browser-only web application that requires users to upload 20–200 images stored inside a single folder (for example, a merchant product directory). On iOS Safari: window.showDirectoryPicker() is not supported. is not supported. File System Access API is not available. Users must manually multi-select images from the Photos picker. This creates significant friction for bulk upload workflows. We are NOT requesting unrestricted file system access. We are asking whether a privacy-preserving, user-granted folder-scoped permission model is being considered for web applications. For example: User explicitly selects a folder. The web app receives scoped access only to that selected folder. Access is session-bound and revocable. No background or global storage access is required. Questions: Is folder-level access for web apps being considered for iOS Safari? Does installing a PWA provide any enhanced file access capability? Are there recommended best practices for handling bulk image uploads in browser-only iOS applications? Is there any roadmap alignment with the File System Access API standard? Our goal is to remain browser-only and maintain strict user privacy while improving usability for high-volume image workflows. Any clarification on intended platform direction would be appreciated.

Steps to reproduce: Create a CSS grid with fractional column widths e.g. grid-template-columns: repeat(3, 518.7875px) Set browser zoom to 85% or 115% Observe columns misalign with background-size pattern Expected: Columns render consistently at all zoom levels Actual: Subpixel rounding causes visual misalignment macOS: 13/14/15 inch MacBook

Is there a way to extract the Accessibility Tree directly from the browser? Since Chrome provides an API for it, can we use that to generate a dump of the Accessibility Tree?

When setting the language in iOS/macOS to German (or other languages with “,” decimal separator) and number format to “1.234.567,89” in iOS 26.2, 26.3 and 26.4 Beta, Safari inserts the wrong decimal separator in elements. It should use the local German decimal separator comma “,” instead it uses the english/international period “.” Here is a screenshot of iOS 26.2 when visiting a website with just 2 number inputs in Safari: <input type="number"> <input type="number" value="5.6"> It behaves the following way: On the first input, enter a number with decimals like “12,34”, clicking “,” on the onscreen-keyboard, a “.” instead of a “,” is added. The number then is formatted in international/English: “12.34”. The input set programatically shows the right decimal separator for German: "5,6". But deleting the “,” and pressing “,” on the onscreen-keyboard again adds a dot instead of a comma and shows the number in international/english: “5.6”. The same issue also happens on desktop Safari on MacOS 26.2 and newer and iOS apps using webviews, also since iOS 26.2. How to use the correct decimal separator in html number inputs for the user selected language in iOS/macOS on iOS 26.2 and newer versions? Is this maybe a bug? This was working correctly for iOS 26.1 and older:
