There are two issues about SFSafariViewController. After rotate from landscape to portrait, The topAnchor is destroyed. The specified bar tint color and control tint color are invalidated.(Returns to system color) Regarding the second issue, I’ve found a temporary workaround. Override the viewWillTransition(to:with:) and keep it empty. Don't call super.viewWillTransition(to:with:). Since UIKit is not open source, I don’t know the exact cause, but I found something that could be the key to the issue. So, I reported it to Apple Feedback Assistant. You can check the details and the sample project in the GitHub repository below. https://github.com/ueunli/SafariViewer

I want use the Safari Extension to decorate the window.fetch function, But No matter how I try, I can't get the fetch function to execute correctly. I was going through the documentation: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/safariservices/using-injected-style-sheets-and-scripts and found this sentence: "Injected scripts have an implied namespace — you don’t have to worry about your variable or function names conflicting with those of the website author, nor can a website author call functions in your extension. In other words, injected scripts and scripts that you include in the webpage run in isolated worlds, with no access to each other’s functions or data." Does this mean I can't modify the window object in the content script just like a Chrome extension does with the webpage? BTW, In chrome I use chrome.scripting.executeScript API, and in plasmo I just use world: "MAIN" content script's config to achieved this feature.

Hello, I am developing Safari Content Blocker extension and discovered that it frequently fails to load with large amount of rules. Currently I have over 45k and most of the time when I reload the extension on iOS 18 (iPhone 12) it ends with error: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4097 "connection to service named com.apple.SafariServices.ContentBlockerLoader" UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=connection to service named com.apple.SafariServices.ContentBlockerLoader} #0 And the simpler message is just: Couldn’t communicate with a helper application. From what I managed to find (for example here - https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/756931) the limit for blocking rules should be 150k items. It was previously 50k but got increased years ago. Is there anything special I need to do to get the extension to work reliably with say 100k items? I am usng the JSON format from the docs: { "trigger": { ... }, "action": { ... } }, { "trigger": { ... }, "action": { ... } } ] My trigger is url-filter and the action is type: block I was thinking about providing multiple JSON files in attachments property of NSExtensionItem but apparently that is not supported. Thanks for help!

I am using SFSafariViewController to process payments via a Stripe checkout URL. Once the payment is completed, the user is redirected to a success URL. I have also added associated domains for deep linking. Below is my implementation: func presentCheckout(url: String) { showProgressHUD() let checkoutURL = URL(string: url)! safariVC = SFSafariViewController(url: checkoutURL) safariVC.delegate = self self.present(safariVC, animated: true) } // Delegate method implementations func safariViewControllerDidFinish(_ controller: SFSafariViewController) { print("SafariViewController dismissed") // Handle dismissal } func safariViewController(_ controller: SFSafariViewController, initialLoadDidRedirectTo URL: URL) { print(URL.absoluteString) if URL.absoluteString.contains("xsworld/payment/stripe/checkout/success") { controller.dismiss(animated: true) { if URL.absoluteString.contains("/v1/resources/xsworld/payment/stripe/checkout") { NotificationCenter.default.post( name: Notification.Name("StripePaymentStatus"), object: nil, userInfo: ["url": URL] ) } } } else if URL.absoluteString.contains("xsworld/payment/stripe/checkout/cancel") { // Handle failure NotificationCenter.default.post( name: Notification.Name("StripePaymentStatus"), object: nil, userInfo: ["url": URL] ) } } func safariViewController(_ controller: SFSafariViewController, didCompleteInitialLoad didLoadSuccessfully: Bool) { if didLoadSuccessfully { print("Initial page loaded successfully") } else { print("Initial page load failed") } } Issue: The safariViewController(_:initialLoadDidRedirectTo:) method does not always get called after the payment is completed. Sometimes it works as expected, and sometimes it does not trigger at all. What I’ve Tried: Ensuring the associated domains for deep linking are correctly set up. Checking the success and failure URLs. Debugging to see if the redirect happens but is not detected. What I Need Help With: I want to ensure that the redirection always works after the payment process is completed, whether through deep linking or another reliable approach. How can I guarantee that my app correctly detects and handles the redirect every time? Any guidance or best practices would be greatly appreciated.

I’m currently porting a Chrome Extension to Safari and integrating it with native messaging in a Safari Web Extension. As part of this, I’m building a proxy to forward messages between the web extension and a socket in another application, both ways. Additionally, the socket occasionally broadcasts messages that also need to be sent to the web extension. The issue I’m facing is that the app extension terminates whenever I call context.completeRequest(returningItems: nil), which prevents me from listening for incoming messages from the socket (I'm using the Network Framework). To work around this, I’ve tried not calling context.completeRequest(returningItems: nil), which keeps the app extension running. However, I’m unsure if this is the right approach—currently, I’m simply ignoring the response and relying entirely on SFSafariApplication.dispatchMessage. According to the documentation, the app extension lifecycle ends when the system terminates it, but I need to keep the socket listener active. Has anyone encountered a similar issue, or does anyone have suggestions for maintaining the socket connection while adhering to the app extension lifecycle? Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

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.

Hi there, I have a problem that , after I add website at dock but unable to turn on the website from dock & pop up message also mention that app was damaged. This problem appears after I factory reset my iMac. Please kindly advise. Thank guys.

I have an endpoint that generates a .ics file. From my mobile app, I open the browser (Safari) and retrieve the .ics file. In Safari, the events are displayed as expected, and I can use the "Add All" button to add them to the calendar. After clicking "Add All," I can select the desired calendar, and the events are successfully added (see screenshots 1 and 2 below). Here’s the initial .ics file response: BEGIN:VCALENDAR VERSION:2.0 CALSCALE:GREGORIAN PRODID:NAME BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20250101T195917Z DTSTART:20250102T131600 DTEND:20250102T142500 SUMMARY:My Event 1 UID:unique-uid1 LAST-MODIFIED:20250101T155715Z DESCRIPTION:Description SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20250101T195917Z DTSTART:20250103T131600 DTEND:20250103T135600 SUMMARY:My Event 2 UID:unique-uid2 LAST-MODIFIED:20250101T155715Z DESCRIPTION:Description SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR Later, I updated the .ics file with new event details: BEGIN:VCALENDAR VERSION:2.0 CALSCALE:GREGORIAN PRODID:NAME BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20250102T195917Z DTSTART:20250104T131600 DTEND:20250104T142500 SUMMARY:My Event 1 Update UID:unique-uid1 LAST-MODIFIED:20250104T155715Z DESCRIPTION:Description SEQUENCE:2 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20250102T195917Z DTSTART:20250105T131600 DTEND:20250105T142500 SUMMARY:My Event 2 Update UID:unique-uid2 LAST-MODIFIED:20250102T155715Z DESCRIPTION:Description SEQUENCE:2 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR I updated everything according to the iCalendar documentation: UID remained unchanged SEQUENCE has been updated DTSTAMP has been updated LAST-MODIFIED has been updated However it seems like that Safari can't handle updates on events. In the preview we can see the changes, but when I click on "Add All" button, nothing happens. The same behavior is working with other calendars like Outlook (web view) or Google Calendar. My Questions: Is there a property missing from my .ics file that is necessary for iOS Safari to handle updates? Is Safari not designed to handle event updates in this way? Should I consider moving to a subscription-based solution to manage updates more reliably? Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Since recently (maybe after updating to Sonoma 14.7.1 - 23H222, but not sure, I get a crash report stating that SafariBookmarksSyncAgent quitted unexpectedly Once acquitted the report, it will reappear 2 minutes later as long as Xcode is open. Configuration: Sonoma 14.7.1 Safari Technology Preview Release 208 (Safari 18.2, WebKit 19621.1.5.1) Xcode 15.3 (15E204a) That seems to be a known problem. Question: Is it due to MacOS version ? To Xcode version ? To Safari version ? To webKit version ? Or to simulator, as I gat an AegirPoster crash (as described here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/77083912/macbook-pro-crashes-when-using-simulator-aegirposter-process) I read that I would need to restart some devices (eg, iPhone).

I noticed that when logging in to idmsa.apple.com, my old email address still appears as an option, even though I’ve updated my Apple ID to a new email. I understand that passkeys rely on a public-private key pair, with the public key stored on the server (e.g., idmsa.apple.com) and the private key saved locally in iCloud Keychain. Could you please clarify: 1. How can I request Apple to delete the public key associated with my old email address from their servers? 2. Is there a way for users to manage or update server-side passkeys without contacting Apple support? 3. Does this behavior affect my account security in any way? Any advice or insights would be greatly appreciated!

In Safari Web Extensions on iOS 18, declarativeNetRequest Rulesets and Dynamic Rules take over twice as long to apply -- which causes rulesets to often fail to apply before sites load. In a boilerplate Xcode project you can note the time difference toggling the OISD (https://oisd.nl) ruleset on iOS 17 and iOS 18 simulators. Additionally, if you force quit Safari and reopen to a site with ads blocked by OISD list (e.g. espn.com) the content will be blocked in that initial state on iOS 17, but not in iOS 18 due to the latency. Based on the boilerplate extension, this bug is impacting all Mobile Safari Extensions using declarativeNetRequest Rulesets and Dynamic Rules. We know several other extension developers dealing with this issue. Our team wrote detailed reproduction steps in our Feedback Assistant ticket: https://feedbackassistant.apple.com/feedback/15196130 but have received no responses. I would attach a screen recording here but it won't allow me.

Title: SafariViewService Recurring "Hard Refresh" Issue on iOS 18.0.1 Hello, Many of my app users are experiencing a recurring "hard refresh" issue related to SafariViewService, which appears only on iOS 18.0.1 across various iPhone models. Users on earlier iOS versions are not encountering this problem. Our app relies on SafariViewService, and the logs show an event triggered by an EXC_GUARD exception with a termination reason from LIBXPC, causing the app to stop. Below are key details from the log report: App Version: 4.1.2 (build 4.1.1.0) OS Version: iPhone OS 18.0.1 Exception Type: EXC_GUARD Subtype: GUARD_TYPE_USER Termination Reason: LIBXPC, XPC_EXIT_REASON_FAULT Device Model: iPhone 11 Pro Max Process Path: [Removed] Here’s an excerpt from the logs: ... {"codes":"0x6000000000000007, 0x0000000000000009","reason":9,"message":"namespc 7 reason_code 0x0000000000000009","subtype":"GUARD_TYPE_USER","type":"EXC_GUARD","rawCodes":[Removed],"namespc":7}, "termination" : {"flags":518,"code":9,"namespace":"LIBXPC","indicator":"XPC_EXIT_REASON_FAULT"}, ... I would greatly appreciate any guidance on resolving this issue, particularly if there are known concerns with inter-process communication (LIBXPC) in iOS 18.0.1 or advice on how to manage the EXC_GUARD exception more effectively. Full log details are in the attachment. Thank you for your help!

When our app makes an API call to our backend service, we want the app to provide a client certificate in the call. What API and mechanism we can use so that our app (iOS app store, and Mac with Developer ID) to read a client certificate present in the Keychain. Please note that the client certificate will be put in the Keychain by an external MDM process. Not sure if an iOS or Mac app can read client certificates from Keychain which they have not put it there in the first place.

Hello, I encountered a problem in the latest beta version of ios 18. When I go to any browser or game, everything freezes and I can't do anything. The keyboard does not open and there is no response to touch. It started in the evening, but at first everything was fine. I hope you will fix it. I can't use the browser

declarativeNetRequest.getMatchedRules() gives us the below error: Error retrieving tabs or matched rules: – Error: Invalid call to declarativeNetRequest.getMatchedRules(). The 'activeTab' permission has not been granted by the user for the tab. We have added the "activeTab" permissions in the manifest (version 2). And in the device Safari extension settings we see that user has given permission as "allow".

After updating Xcode to the latest version we observed that SFSafariViewController is not loading web pages on Xcode 16 Simulator with iOS 18, whenever it is presented the View Controller is empty (does not load any content) and the app freezes, but other screens that use WKWebView are working normally. Also, during tests on physical devices with iOS 18 it seems to work just fine, so it might be just a IDE version problem. Is anyone experiencing the same issue? If so, did anyone find a solution for it?

Hi, I am having issue with WebAssembly not able to load wasm file on Safari web extension. It is showing CompileError: Refused to create a WebAssembly object because 'unsafe-eval' or 'wasm-unsafe-eval' is not an allowed source of script in the following Content Security Policy directive: "script-src 'self' 'wasm-unsafe-eval'". It was working fine 2 month ago, my original CPS is "script-src 'self' 'unsafe-eval'". But now it is not accepting 'unsafe-eval', I also tried 'wasm-unsafe-eval' did not work. Is there any changes on Safari browser regarding the CSP for WebAssenbly? Please let me know what CPS value will work. Here is the example code on how I load the WebAssembly wasm file. fetch('test_wasm_lib.wasm') .then(response => { if (!response.ok) throw new Error('Network response was not ok'); return response.arrayBuffer(); }) .then(bytes => WebAssembly.instantiate(bytes)) .then(results => { // Use your WebAssembly instance here console.log('load wasm success') }) .catch(error => { console.error('Error loading WASM:', error); });
