How can i add Authorization header to a wkwebview. I checked https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/nsurlrequest#1776617 which says Authorization header is a reserved http header and shouldn’t be set. I want to set it when requesting a url to the server which will be used for verification. How can i do that?

Hi all, Chrome has it already - animation-timeline aka scroll-animations. I can nowhere find any informations on what's the status in Safari/Webkit. Seems like they do not have it on the agenda at all? Does anyone know anything - I wanted to push a feature request for that - but also seem there is no feature request list anymore for webkit. See: https://www.w3.org/TR/scroll-animations/ Cheers and kind regards!

I'm porting to Safari a Chrome/Firefox Extension that makes use of declarativeNetRequest.updateDynamicRules to remove some HTTP headers from requests to a specific URL. This works mostly fine, except for some headers for which this is not allowed by WebKit, such as the Priority header (which is however served by Safari). An annoying corner-case I found is that of the Cookie header. When trying to remove it from the request by adding the following rule { id: <rule id>, priority: <rule priority>, action: { type: "modifyHeaders", requestHeaders: [{ "header": "Cookie", "operation": "remove" }] }, condition: { urlFilter: <my url>, resourceTypes: ["main_frame", "sub_frame"] } } nothing error is thrown, yet the Cookie header is still being sent. This rule however works for other headers, such as Referer. Changing "Cookie" for "cookie" does not help. Questions: Is there an alternative way of removing the Cookie header from the HTTP request? Is this just a bug in WebKit? Is there any way of removing "unsupported" headers such as Priority? Any help or references are appreciated. Edited: more specific description of the corner-case.

Safari Extension Error: “Non-persistent background content cannot listen to webRequest events.” after macOS 15.4 / Safari 18.4 Update We’re seeing the following error in the Safari Extensions tab after updating to macOS 15.4 and Safari 18.4: “Non-persistent background content cannot listen to webRequest events.” This error did not appear prior to the update, and we haven’t found any official documentation stating that webRequest API is no longer supported in Safari. In our extension (Manifest V3), we are using the webRequest.onHeadersReceived callback to intercept response headers and read updated cookies. While the functionality itself still works as expected. we’re able to access the response headers and this error is now shown in the Extension settings page. We are not seeing this issue in other browsers (Chrome, Firefox) using the same Manifest V3 setup. Is there any plan to deprecate webRequest support in Manifest V3 for Safari? We’d appreciate any clarification or guidance on how to handle this going forward.

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

I'm currently experimenting to add 3d stereo images in HEIC format to my daily Mars Rover Images website https://areo.info/mars20 which can be opened on a Vision Pro. Only a few images are yet converted into that mode, those on the sol 1411 page. As I'm currently only working in the Vision Pro Simulator from Xcode, no real 3d effect if of course visible and I'm curious if anyone using the real hardware can confirm that the images are working. Especially the eye distance correction is important to know about as the Mars Rover camera has a much wider pupil distance than humans and while I entered that distance in the conversion tool, I'm not sure if it worked well. So feedback is welcome! For those who like to try to create stereo images themselves: I used https://developer.apple.com/documentation/ImageIO/writing-spatial-photos to create a HEIC file from two JPEGs.

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!

We are using WebKit in our app and recently started noticing a crash occurring on iOS 17 and earlier versions.

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

I have a product developed base on the WKWebview. I use Azure as IDP configured for login in. Azure have “keep me sign in” to allow user no need to enter credential again after reopen the app. Every thing works fine in IOS 17. 16. But keep me sign in function not works anymore after upgrade device to IOS 18. User need to enter credential every time after reopen the app. Is there any thing change in WKWebview in IOS 18?

We have an app store app that hosts an internal webserver we use as a proxy and it works for a period until iOS 18.3.x decides our cert is no longer valid at which point our customer have reinstall the app. This has only become a problem on iOS18.3. We publish the self-signed with out app, and it is valid and accepted until it's not. We know the cert is valid and our implementation of the local proxy has not changed. If we install a cert on the device and trust it, then the app will start behaving normally again without reinstall. We have replicated this locally and the error we are seeing is: Error Domain=NSURLErrorDomain Code=-1200 "An SSL error has occurred and a secure connection to the server cannot be made."

"We have a multi-tenant EdTech platform serving over 1500 clients, each with a unique domain (e.g., client1.eduapp.com). We use WKWebView in a native shell. Due to WKAppBoundDomains restriction, we can't dynamically list all domains. How can we support dynamic tenants while maintaining cookie persistence" "Can Apple suggest a best practice or alternative approach for apps using WebView/PWA shell architecture across multiple client domains?" Problem: We cannot predefine all 1500 domains in WKAppBoundDomains due to limitations. As a result: Service workers fail to register, breaking PWA functionality Ex: Offline.

I'm running apache with following configuration. /cc require TLS client certificate / not require TLS client certificate Starting with ios 18.4, accessing /cc after / fails with following error: AH02261: Re-negotiation handshake failed, referer: https://www.example.com/... SSL Library Error: error:1417C0C7:SSL routines:tls_process_client_certificate:peer did not return a certificate -- No CAs known to server for verification? It seems like ios 18.4 does not support TLS re-negotiation. (It worked with ios 18.3 and before) Is this an expected behavior or a bug?

Hi, We have a native application with a webview part. When we open the app, we load webview resources in a false foreground. The webview communicates with the native part to query local variables, among other things. We have noticed that for the past few weeks, when the biometric component is presented to enter the fingerprint or faceId, while the component is displayed, the webview does not respond. We do not see the calls made by the webview, nor can we respond to them. Even if you open the Safari debugger, the webview does not respond UNTIL you close the biometric component in the native part. This has created a big problem in our app, and we wanted to know if it is an issue you had on your radar. Thank you very much.

We seem to be having an issue with a webservice here which is used within our network and IOS Safari. For the service to work , we need to access it with an unencrypted HTTP API call, which acts as a trigger. The server does not respond to HTTPS requests. (the HTTP API call does not contain any data that is privacy sensitive or that can be abused) Since recently the service does not seem to work anymore properly, but this only happens with Safari and IOS. With all other browsers the service is still working normally, only with Safarai it fails. No matter what I do in the settings of the phone, the Safar browser seems to stop immediately after the HTTP request. What is going on here ?? The issue seems to occur only when you don't have an iCloud+ account. With an iCloud+ account I get the same issue when you switch Apple Private Relay on, but that make sense. When I have Apple Private Relay switched off, there is no issue.

Is there a way to read all URLs of the currently open Safari TabGroup from a Safari Extension? In macOS and iOS

Hi everyone, I'm facing an issue with accessing device orientation and motion events in Safari on my iPhone (iOS 18). Despite trying several guides and solutions, I cannot find the option to allow access to motion and orientation for websites in the browser settings. I’ve checked privacy settings, and the device is up to date. Can anyone guide me on how to enable this feature in Safari or share any workarounds? Thanks in advance!

Dependent fields for multi-select options and dropdown fields are not displaying in Safari, although they work correctly in Chrome and Firefox. Scenario You have a form built with ASP.NET and Razor, where users need to select multiple options from a dropdown list to trigger the display of dependent fields. Multi-Select Dropdown: The form has a multi-select dropdown for choosing different categories (Category A, Category B, etc.). Dependent Fields: Based on the user's selection, certain dependent fields should become visible. For example, if the user selects Category A, an additional input field titled "Details for Category A" should be shown. Expected Behavior (Chrome & Firefox) When the user selects Category A or Category B, the corresponding input fields are displayed dynamically, functioning as expected. Issue in Safari : In Safari, the dependent fields do not show up when a user selects any category. It's as if the JavaScript or the CSS responsible for displaying these fields is not executing correctly. CHROME SAFARI Browser: Safari (Version 18.0 (20619.1.26.31.6)) Operating System: MacOS (sequoia 15.0) Device: MacBook Pro 14 Inch Apple M3 Pro , iPhone 14 iOS 18.0

When a video in Safari is played in fullscreen mode and the user pauses it, an overlay (such as a play button or other controls) appears. This affects the user experience, as we want to avoid showing the overlay during fullscreen viewing after the video is paused. Expected Behavior: The overlay should not appear after the video is paused in fullscreen mode. Steps to Reproduce: Open a webpage https://slides-dev.pitchavatar.com/rtxuf in Safari. Start playing the video. Enter fullscreen mode. Pause the video. The overlay appears after the video is paused. Screenshot: Additional Information: Safari version: Safari 18.0.1 (20619.1.26.31.7) Environment: macOS Sequoia 15.0.1 (24A348) We would like to know if there is there any way to prevent the overlay from appearing in Safari when the video is paused in fullscreen mode.
