In our project, URLProtocol is used to intercept the request of WKWebView.loadRequest. On iOS18, if the APP is idle for more than 10 minutes and then clicks on an H5 page, the time from WKWebView.loadRequest -> URLProtocol.canInitWithRequest will be as long as 600ms or more, but the second time the H5 page is opened, it will only be 80ms. This only occurs on iOS18 models.

Hi Apple Team, We have a PWA which supports downloading and playback for audio and video content. Downloaded content is stored in IndexedDB in the form of blobs and blob URLs are generated on runtime through which content is played. We have observed that the blob URLs have stopped working on iOS 17.4.1. They work on iOS 17.4 and iOS 17.3 as well. This feature is very critical for us as it is the heart of the offline mode of the app. Thanks!

I have a url that I want to stream, the stream is protected by basic auth. I am using URLAuthenticationChallenge (wkwebview navigation delegate function) method to provide my credentials. the credential changes with every stream url. The issue I am facing is that URLAuthenticationChallenge is never called upon refresh or on new URL request until the app is killed and opened again. I have tried: clearing cooking setting cache to ignore opening an another blank url using child view approach setting wkwebview instance to nil I always end up with 401 in decidePolicy (wkwebview delegate functions) on subsequent refresh call. Upon inspecting I see that it is using my previous used credentials and never calling challenge to update. *Backend has a no-cache policy in its header. **I am using http resource, the aim is to have streaming service on iOS. class ViewController: UIViewController, WKNavigationDelegate, WKUIDelegate { @IBOutlet weak var wkWebView: WKWebView! override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() let url = URL(string: "http://some-ip-address/some-path")! var request = URLRequest(url: url) request.httpMethod = "GET" wkWebView.configuration.allowsInlineMediaPlayback = true wkWebView.navigationDelegate = self wkWebView.load(request) } // this is just called once. we want to call it everytime our page refreshes. // we have tried clearing cache and cookies but failed to call challenge func webView(_ webView: WKWebView, didReceive challenge: URLAuthenticationChallenge, completionHandler: @escaping(URLSession.AuthChallengeDisposition, URLCredential?) -> Void) { let credential = URLCredential(user: "user", password: "password", persistence: .forSession) completionHandler(.useCredential, credential) } }

Hello, i've read about this error, which means a DNS-Problem. Some hints: I'm using an Apple MDM and have set up an cardDAV-Server with "Radicale". If i set up the account for this cardDAV on the iPhone manually, everything works fine, i even can get the Website on my cardDAV in Safari without problems. If i deploy this payload with my MDM, i'll get the Error and after We'll refresh if we find a better network connection. I don't understand where the problem is. Thomas

Hello. Environment Safari version 18.1 (22B81). Problem In my Safari Web Extension i need to determine the url of the active tab. I do it this way: const onError = (error) => { console.error(error); }; const getFrameUrl = async (frames) => { console.info(frames) }; const getAllFrames = (frames) => { browser.webNavigation.getAllFrames({ tabId: frames[0].id }).then(getFrameUrl, onError); }; browser.tabs.onUpdated.addListener(() => { browser.tabs.query({ currentWindow: true, active: true }).then(getAllFrames, onError); }); The problem is that if the tab url is a link in the blob protocol, then the result function browser.webNavigation.getAllFrames({ tabId: tabs[0].id }) is as follows: {frameId: 0, parentFrameId: -1, url: "", errorOccurred: false} In Safari version 17 the correct URL value was returned: {frameId: 0, parentFrameId: -1, url: "blob://<some id>", errorOccurred: false} How can I fix the problem? Environment Safari version 18.1 (22B81).

Hi, I need a version of a web app to be accessible on a local network (LAN), when the users connect to a wifi without internet access. I provide a valid TLS certificate to validate the website. There is also a local DNS (dnsmasq), with the following entries to return NXDOMAIN, as specified by the documentation. server=/mask.icloud.com/ server=/mask-h2.icloud.com/ However, without internet (no cellular data), there is an error in Safari instead of the website. When there is some internet connection, there is a warning that allows to continue to the website by showing the IP address, which is not clear for the user. iPhone users are very frustrated. Is there a solution?

I am trying to figure out a way to programatically paste the contents of the clipboard into a series of text input fields. Specifically, this is for a security code entry screen, where the user will receive a code as a string of number characters. After verifying that the string represents a number, I split it into an array of single number chars, then paste the value at each index into each input. This works fine in Chrome and Firefox, but fails in Safari. After a lot of research, I have found that programatic pasting is a challenge on this platform. I did discover that if I listen for the focusin event and then get the contents of the clipboard, a popup "paste" button will appear. Clicking it does nothing, but I'm thinking that I might be able to grab the button in code and bend it to my will. Can anyone tell me how to interact with that button?

Hi, I have a SAML authentication scenario with MFA(probably Okta) in my app that runs in WKWebView using Cordova. I am currently doing POC to authenticate PIV certificates(either one of the 3 Issuers: DISA Purebred, Intercede and Entrust) in WKWebView with Cordova. As if now, I have found that WKNavigationDelegate method: didReceive challenge, we can authenticate the certificate. Also, these PIV certificates which are stored in the form of .p12 in Apple's keychain group needs to be imported using function: SecPKCS12Import. Please let me know if my understanding is correct or if there are any implementation challenges in WKWebView with Cordova. I would highly appreciate if any information regarding this can be provided.

We have a PWA that can be added to a users home screen. In IOS 17, when added to a phones home screen, the camera works as expected. Since testing this on an IOS 18 device, the camera does not work. I am asked if I want to allow the camera. After saying yes, it never loads. I do see a red camera icon in the top bar, but the camera doesn't show. When trying the PWA in the safari web-browser, the camera works as expected

A few observations Very slow response and loading times for both URLs, forms, and scrolling Frequently non-responsive touch-screen for on-page forms and actions Keyboard stays open with no option to get rid of it Auto zoom stuck in xoomed-in mode, often hiding "Save"/"Submit"-buttons Dowbload folder setting ignored Toggling of web inspector mode does not work In vertical mode, with address bar on top of screen, clicking items on bottom part of page is not registered as click, but makes the navigation bar pop up, hiding the clickable feature. For clicks to register, frequently 2-3 touches are required.

When I want legend inside the filedset, not on the border as default browsers design, I set float: left to the legend. It works in every modern browser - Safari too. The problem is when the filedset itself is set to display: flex. Float propertie of the legend is ignored. In other browsers this approach works fine and the float stays and the legend is inside of the fieldset as we expect.

iPhone 15pro iOS 18.2 Downloaded files cannot be located anywhere in Files, only by accessing Downloads in Safari. I have tried setting download folder to various locations, iCloud, Phone, Google Disk, but nothing is stored. Has an invisible cache or temp folder been introduced? If so, it is a total fail: When press-holding any file in Safari download, the normal file action options (Quick Look, share, store to Files, etc) are not available. When clicking any file it opens any of several apps that has this file type associated with it, and there is no way to change the default app or disable the forced opening of an app. I tried deleting the app opening .csv (in this case OneDrive), and another irrelevant app opened. There seems to be a hierarchy of apps-file types, and it has no logic to it. in Chrome behaviour is as expected. Chrome vs. Safari screen recordings: https://shorturl.at/my3Oy

Hello there my iPhone 16 pro max has an issue with safari and apple support couldn’t help me there and said I should get help here Safari completely doesnt work it doesn’t start and if it starts it crashes can anyone help me to get safari useable

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!

Does Safari handle infinite scroll animations differently from Chrome in terms of performance or rendering? Are there recommended Safari-specific optimizations for smooth animations? Should we implement a different animation approach specifically for Safari users? Investigation Notes Performance metrics show no significant issues Animation frame rate is consistent Layout calculations appear correct before animation starts Impact This issue affects a crucial part of our property showcase website, specifically impacting Safari users on MacBook devices. Given Safari's significant user base on MacBooks, this needs to be resolved for a consistent cross-browser experience. Additional Context The animation is part of a larger property showcase feature Performance is crucial for user experience Need to maintain visual consistency across browsers Reproduction Steps Open website Safari on MacBook [pinkdoorbnb .com] Observe the infinite scroll animation Compare with Chrome on the same device Note the differences in animation behaviour and layout I would greatly appreciate any insights into Safari-specific animation handling or alternative approaches that work consistently across browsers.
