Hello, following problems described here: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/765272 Last version of Safari apparently corrected previous bugs, however we encountered another problem. Right now Safari uses autocomplete feature of some kind (Siri suggested websites/Top hit) which triggers blocking while writing the name of the website. Probably somehow loads website in the background. Problem is, that this behavior is impossible to debug, because this autocomplete doesn't work, while the browser console is open. We are using content script for blocking. Please advise. Thanks very much

**Description: ** We have implemented a process to launch a native app from a browser (Safari) via universal links. However, under certain conditions, the app does not launch seamlessly, and an error page is displayed in the browser. In such cases, a button to open the app appears at the top of the error page, and pressing this button successfully opens the app. The error page is a blank white page with only the following error message displayed: "NoSuchKeyThe specified key does not exist." We want to confirm the detailed specifications and conditions of the behavior where seamless transition via universal links fails. If there are means to suppress or control the occurrence of this issue, please let us know. Configuration: OS: iOS 18.1 Device: iPad 9th generation, 10th generation **Reproduction Steps: ** When attempting to launch the app via a universal link, a pop-up appears asking "Do you want to allow this page to open ?" If 'Cancel' is pressed in this pop-up, the issue occurs the next time the app is launched via a universal link. However, we have also confirmed that this issue can occur due to operations other than this one, and we have not been able to pinpoint the conditions under which it occurs. Therefore, we would like to confirm the detailed specifications and conditions leading to the occurrence of this issue.

Hello i would like to report a bug on iOS 26 beta. The problem is on the epic games website you see when I hit sign in it is just blank but the epic games store is just fine i would like this to be fixed on iOS 26 beta 3 thank you.

In my content blocker I have a bunch of rules that block some content in Safari, but I want my users to be able to whiltelist a website so the blocker rules don't apply on that site. I have something like this: { "action": { "type":"css-display-none", "selector":"a[href*='Bobbins']" }, "trigger": { "url-filter":".*" } }, { "trigger": { "url-filter": ".*", "if-domain": ["*mydomain.com"] }, "action": { "type": "ignore-previous-rules" } } I think that should block any a link where the href includes Bobbins but not if the site is mydomain.com. However, that simply doesn't work. It doesn't matter what I put in the array of domains to whitelist, it just doesn't apply it. In every case, the a link is blocked. How do you actually whitelist a website in a Safari content blocker?

Hi Team, We are trying to upload a file or an image using the component WKWebView. How we can do it? Should we need to use another approach? Do you have any suggestion or any demo project? Thanks in advance!

I have a Safari extension which allows the user to load their own homepage upon opening a new tab. The extension works by retrieving the homepage URL from UserDefaults and then redirecting to it using window.location.replace. In iOS 18, if the homepage is unable to be loaded due to, for example the user having no internet connection, Safari will go into an rapid loading loop, which eventually stops after a while. This is unlike iOS 17, where trying to reproduce the same scenario will end up with a Safari error page, which should be the expected behaviour. In short, instead of Safari going into an infinite loading loop, it should display a Safari error page like iOS 17 does. As this issue is only happening on iOS 18, I am almost certain it's an iOS bug and would appreciate if this can be fixed as soon as possible. I have created a Feedback Assistant report with ID FB15853821, which contains a sysdiagnose file from my iPhone 16 Pro, as well as two videos, one from my iPhone 16 Pro with iOS 18.2 beta 3 and the other video showing a comparison between iOS 18 and 17. Both videos first show the extension functioning correctly with an active internet connection, but when I disable my internet, the iOS 18 Safari goes into an infinite loop. Here are the steps to reproduce the issue: Download the Homepage for Safari app from the App Store: https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/homepage-for-safari/id6481118559 Enter any valid homepage URL, such as https://apple.com and tap Save Go to Settings -> Apps -> Safari -> Extensions -> Homepage and enable the extension Make sure Open New Tabs is set to “Homepage” Turn off both WiFi and cellular data and attempt to open a new tab in Safari Please note that this also happens with iOS 18.2 beta 4.

Hi, I am trying to find a unix timestamp from a safari bookmark. I have been able to open the Plist file but I am not sure how to find the timestamp. Any help would be great!

I am trying to cache fonts natively in a hybrid app, so that CSS hosted in an https website loaded in WKWebView through loadRequest can reference them like this for a performance boost: @font-face { font-family: 'MyFont'; src: url('my-assets://Gordita-bold-subset.woff') format('woff'); font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; } The problem happens when I register a WKURLSchemeHandler for my-assets. The handler never gets called and the Safari Web Insepctor shows this: [blocked] The page at https://www.x.com/ requested insecure content from my-assets://Gordita-bold-subset.woff. This content was blocked and must be served over HTTPS. Interestingly enough, if we try to serve content with <img src="my-assets://test.png" this restriction does not apply. Are there any workarounds other than using the private API WKProcessPool._registerURLSchemeAsSecure?

Hi Apple developers, I am very new to XCode and Swift, I am planning to build an app for iOS from a web. I tried to use WKWebView to handle the web , I managed to redirect some of the links to Safari, however some button/links didn't trigger .linkActivated function and encounter the error as "Your browser preventing this app to open “URL”. If I copy the URL to Safari is able to open, I trying to research on web but can't find any related solution for my case. Here is the code in my app: import UIKit import WebKit import SafariServices class ViewController: UIViewController, WKNavigationDelegate { var webView: WKWebView! override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() // Initialize WKWebView let webConfiguration = WKWebViewConfiguration() //enable javascript webConfiguration.preferences.javaScriptEnabled = true webView = WKWebView(frame: self.view.frame, configuration: webConfiguration) webView.navigationDelegate = self self.view.addSubview(webView) // Load a web page as webview if let url = URL(string: "https://myurl") { let request = URLRequest(url: url) webView.load(request) } //console log webView.evaluateJavaScript("console.log('Button clicked!')") { result, error in if let error = error { print("Error executing JavaScript: \(error.localizedDescription)") } else { print("JavaScript result: \(String(describing: result))") } } } func webView(_ webView: WKWebView, decidePolicyFor navigationAction: WKNavigationAction, decisionHandler: @escaping (WKNavigationActionPolicy) -> Void) { if let url = navigationAction.request.url, navigationAction.navigationType == .linkActivated { // Check if URL is external and open it in Safari if UIApplication.shared.canOpenURL(url) { UIApplication.shared.open(url, options: [:], completionHandler: nil) decisionHandler(.cancel) // Prevent loading the link in the WebView } else { decisionHandler(.allow) // Allow loading if URL cannot be opened in Safari } } else { decisionHandler(.allow) // Allow the WebView to load the URL normally } } }

I am using videojs player to play my hls m3u8 proxies, and there was no issue with ipad os 16, ater i upgraded it to 18, i started getting this warning -> [Warning] VIDEOJS: – "WARN:" "Problem encountered with playlist 0-https://coludFront.m3u8. Trying again since it is the only playlist." After this warning logs, the player just freeze's and even the source is not loaded into player. This issue doesn't exist in mac safari and iphone safari with latest os.

Does webkit have a way to display a smart banner for a home screen web app similar to how a smart banner can be displayed for native apps? I recently noticed (10/23) that Twitter showed a smart banner encouraging Home Screen web app on my Mac running Sonoma. How is this done?

Hello, We do not have explicitly set it our website, but still Smart Banner appears since we have universal link setup. (current URL matches the universal link patterns set in your apple-app-site-associations file ). Also, I understand it appears only for users having our app installed. We do not want to show this banner in any case. is there any way to choose not to show the app banner? either setting additional meta or any other way would work. regards, Hussain

Hello everyone. I have a very strange behavior with smart app banners in Safari. When I don't have installed app on my phone, I can't see the banner on our product main page. When I installed the app, I can see the banner, which allows me to go directly to the app. When I put any other app's ID in the meta tag it works perfectly even if I don't have its installed app. So the code is right, what can be the reason of this behavior? Any settings of the app are required?

Apple must comply with the requirements of the Level Index, the global digital credit gateway, and suspend gift cards and similar services until formal arrangements are made with service providers.

In a Safari Web Extension using Manifest V3, how can a content script access an HTML file that is bundled with the extension (e.g., to inject it as an iframe)? Safari's CSP seem to prevent the use of browser.runtime.getURL() in the MAIN world — is there a recommended way to load such resources securely?

We have noticed that in iOS 16 or greater , the Smart App Banner which shows based on meta tag added is not showing the app ratings inside the popup. Can we override this new behavior to show ratings and custom text.

Hello! I am looking to use SF Pro as the main font of my website. This website is used as a place of purchase for some of my products, none of which will actually be using this font. The websites logo will also not be using this font, however I am worried that may be legally unviable. Please let me know if this is an option. I'm not looking to get direct financial gain by using your fonts, just would like to use it for the website. Thank you for your help.

Despite using the iPad in landscape mode, self-camera video is forced to portrait (Rotate 90 degrees). Only the video is portrait, even though the browser is in landscape orientation. Our app use getUserMedia() to get the video. The problem also happend in iPad Safari GoogleMeet. Details: The problem occurs even when the screen orientation is locked. After the video has been forced to portrait, rotating the iPad temporarily changes the video to landscape, but forces it to portrait again. It takes around 0 - 30 seconds before the video is forced to portrait. Both selfie camera and back camera I have confirmed this problem on the following devices iPad 8th iPadOS: 18.3.1 iPad10th iPadOS:18.3.1 iPadPro(M4) iPadOS:18.3.1 Some devices do not have this problem, even if they are the same model and OS version. I have tried the following restart factory reset Configuration changes (Settings > Apps > Safari) SETTINGS FOR WEBSITES Camera > Allow, Ask Microphone > Allow, Ask Advanced ＞ Feature Flags Reset All to Defaults Screen Orientation API (Locking / Unlocking) Screen Orientation API WebRTC AV1 codec Please help me to resolve this problom. Thanks.
