Hi there, we have found a problem, after switching audio tracks multi times when play the HLS, there will be a few seconds of no sound playing after audio track switching, Is there a solution to this problem?

When configuring a Per-App VPN payload with 250+ Safari domains under a managed app, the VPN does not trigger for the other managed apps(like chrome etc). However, the same VPN successfully starts and works when used with Safari. Reducing the number of Safari domains in the VPN payload resolves the issue, allowing the VPN to trigger for the managed app as expected. Has anyone else faced this issue, and what's the workaround for it?

I wrote a code like the example below to execute javascript code that has no return value. let webView: WKWebView // after load complete let result = await webView.evaluateJavascript("someFunction()") // :0: Fatal error: Unexpectedly found nil while implicitly unwrapping an Optional value but when i use method with completion handler manner, it doesn't be crashed. but Xcode enforces me to use 'await' keyword and warning is bordering me await webView.evaluateJavaScript("someFunction()", completionHandler: nil) // warning: Consider using asynchronous alternative function The differnce I found is the different signature. Completion handler version has Optional result type, but async/await version has just Any result type func evaluateJavaScript(_ javaScriptString: String, completionHandler: ((Any?, Error?) -> Void)? = nil) func evaluateJavaScript(_ javaScriptString: String) async throws -> Any my Xcode version is 13.2.1. Hope to fix it soon.

I'm using navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition to retrieve the users coordinates in a PWA built with Nextjs. getCurrentPosition is called by clicking on a button. If getCurrentPosition is called afterwards, the cached value is returned. On Safari, If I refresh the page, or logout, login and call getCurrentPosition again, the getCurrentPosition error callback is called with an error code 2 - POSITION_UNAVAILABLE. After around five minutes, getCurrentPosition can be called again. Is there some kind of throttling restriction on Safari navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition?

Hi, Our company has an application uses the WKWebview to host a lot of content. The content is web based and hosts a lot of charts and metrics. Because of the high content, we've seen the memory of the WebContent hit above 1.25 GB. When that happens, it'll eventually terminate and we have our recovery code to reload the same page Seems like the limit is hidden / internal. Some Apple devs also noted something might be hard coded to be limited as well. Yes, we have our optimizations but we still need to keep our queries, use react, cache, etc... It's just a heavy web application. Request: Can you help us raise that limit? Are there some limitations in Webkit for such a need to terminate? As some devices have much higher RAM than before, we were hoping to be able to dynamically adjust the limit for the wkwebview before it resets. We contacted our internal contacts but they said to post here.

When using WKWebview to load the following url on iOS17.5, The Camara preview page is likely to not display the image, but there is no error report. The video cannot be loaded. There is no problem with iOS17 and iOS18. I can't find the cause of the error， How to avoid this problem? I hope you can provide some suggestions. I want a way to avoid the error，Thanks STEPS TO REPRODUCE Run iOSTest.xcodeproj on iOS17.5 Tap WKWebview(Camara) Waiting webview load url tap 手持设备训练 立即开始 download demo https://github.com/xuty/Report22/raw/refs/heads/main/iOSTest_1_url.zip

I have a Safari Extension which replaces default new tab and puts a link on a generated new tab. This link can be either usual URL link, or a URL Scheme, something like plecoapi://x-callback-url/df?hw=${char}&sec=dict In iOS 17 and previosly, this link worked flawlessly. In iOS 18, including 18.2, this X-Callback-URL link works only once, if I kill Safari process, reopen Safari and tap the link. Each subsequent tap will just reload the page, link won't work anymore until the next Safari reload. Usual URL links works every time without a problem.

On Mac, If the user registers the Password and the Software Authenticator app for a website like PayPal then uses the Safari browser to login the Apple system is creating confusion. The system prompts to use the authenticator autofill for any grid like SMS OTP or even for the Email OTP. That creates confusion for the user as the SMS OTPs or other OTPs cannot be validated by auto filling the Authenticator TOTP. That fails the validation resulting in bad user experience. The system should not prompt the Autofill from the Authenticator app unless the grid box shown on the page was for the Authenticator app.

Hi Apple Team, Can we use SFSafariViewController to launch a 3rd party passkey authentication experience from a native iOS app? Regards

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!

When WKWebView loads a site that has username and password on different pages, standard "Passwords" button above keyboard does nothing. Reproducible on both physical device and simulator. At the same time, Safari works fine in this case. Any chance to fix this behavior in the upcoming iOS updates? Here's video demonstrating the issue: and a sample code to reproduce it (nothing specific, just bare WKWebView with default configuration): class ViewController: UIViewController { private let webView = WKWebView(frame: .zero) override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() view.addSubview(webView) } override func viewDidLayoutSubviews() { super.viewDidLayoutSubviews() webView.frame = view.bounds } override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) { super.viewDidAppear(animated) webView.load(URLRequest( url: URL(string: "https://accounts.google.com/")! )) } }

On iOS 18 only, I've been getting this error from the didFailToContinueUserActivityWithType in AppDelegate, the activity needed for universal links. It didn't happen on previous versions of it. Has anyone encountered 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?

Upon upgrading to 18.3 safari now says no connection cleared cookies and data. Disabled all extensions and all von and security anyone else having this issue

Hi, I'm encountering an issue with the Clipboard API's writeText() method in Safari. It throws a NotAllowedError even when triggered by a user action (selecting an option from a <select> element). Is this expected? This issue seems specific to Safari, as the same code works perfectly in Firefox and Chrome. Perhaps I should send feedback to Apple, but I'd like to post it here first in case I misunderstand something. Problem In Safari, when I try to copy text to the clipboard using navigator.clipboard.writeText() within an input event listener attached to a <select> element, it fails with the following error: NotAllowedError: The request is not allowed by the user agent or the platform in the current context, possibly because the user denied permission. Environment Safari 18.2 (20620.1.16.11.8) Technology Preview 210 macOS Sequoia 15.2 (24C101) Example I've created a minimal reproducible example on CodePen: https://codepen.io/mshibanami/pen/LEPdxXZ Here's the relevant JavaScript code from the example: selectElement.addEventListener('input', async (event) => { const selectedText = event.target.options[event.target.selectedIndex].text; try { await navigator.clipboard.writeText(selectedText); alert(`Text copied to clipboard: ${selectedText}`); } catch (err) { alert('Failed to copy text to clipboard: ' + err); } }); Firefox and Chrome handle this code without any issues, successfully copying the text to the clipboard, but not Safari. Possible Cause I suspect this issue might be related to WebKit's User Activation API. It seems like Safari is not correctly recognizing the input or change event on a <select> element as a valid user activation for the Clipboard API, even though it is initiated by a user gesture. Questions Is this behavior unexpected? Should Safari allow the Clipboard API to work in this context? (Technically, this might be expected as of now, as such events are not explicitly described in https://webkit.org/blog/13862/the-user-activation-api/.) Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

HI, please can someone help? I have a web app where push notifications are in place for Chrome, Firefox, and Edge. Providing the user allows notifications then when they log in for the first time their details are registered to the subscriptions table in the backend. All good so far. When trying to do the same with Safari on Mac I'm faced with this issue: "Safari doesn’t support invisible push notifications. Present push notifications to the user immediately after your service worker receives them. If you don’t, Safari revokes the push notification permission for your site." and the user is not registered in the subscription table with the Safari console just saying variations of this: [Warning] Notification permission denied. (notifications_frontend.js, line 177, x2) [Log] Enable Notifications button clicked (notifications_frontend.js, line 245) [Log] Safari Push Notifications detected (notifications_frontend.js, line 248) [Warning] Safari Push Permission denied. (notifications_frontend.js, line 278) I've found this on an another forrum: "Safari requires that you immediately post a notification when a push message is received. "Immediately" means that it cannot be after some async operation. If you display a notification immediately from the service worker itself, it will stop displaying that error. I cannot remember 100% but I think if you clear your cache and cookies you will be able to receive push messages again if you accidentally get blocked while testing." and I've tried adding buttons to trigger allowing notifications but it all seem to late to get the subscription registered in the subscription table. I'm pretty new to coding so if any has a similar experience and can advice how to get the subscriptions registered when the user logs on for the first time in Safari in a Mac it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks...
