I am encountering an issue where we are unable to run or launch Safari Driver in our automation tests using macOS. When attempting to run safaridriver -p 8888 from the terminal, we receive the following error message: ERROR: safaridriver could not launch because it is not configured correctly or you need to authenticate. Re-run safaridriver(1) and pass the '--enable' flag to configure and/or authenticate. For more information, consult the safaridriver(1) man page. Despite running sudo safaridriver --enable as an administrator (even as root), the issue persists. I’ve searched through various online forums and GitHub repositories but couldn’t find a working solution.

My website ccflood.us is a simple map that uses a CSV file for the data that is displayed on the map. It uses the ESRI JS API. Recently the points on the map began missing the text in the boxes only on Apple devices that have been upgraded to iOS 18. Has anyone also had this happen to their site? If you have upgraded to iOS 18, try this site on your iPhone then look at it on an Android phone or your desktop browser. You should seet the values in the boxes and a "+" at points that have no value. If you've had this happen with your site or have heard of a fix, please reply to this post.

I'm trying to implement WebAuthn conditional credential creation but I'm not able to get it to work. From this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8a6ODX1zHY I understand I should call navigator.credentials.create with "mediation: conditional" but the explainer at https://github.com/w3c/webauthn/wiki/Explainer:-Conditional-Registration-Extension also mentions a call to navigator.credentials.get with "mediation: conditional" and "extensions: { conditionalCreate: true }". The explainer seems to suggest they should be called both but for me, both calls never resolve with a credential or an error. What am I doing wrong?

Since iPadOS 18.x WKWebView seems to have a bug within its Fullscreen API (which can be enabled via WKPreferences.isElementFullscreenEnabled). This bug has the effect that websites trying to make an element (for example a video player) fullscreen fail to do so. This does not always happen, most of the time the fullscreen mode does work fine, but sometimes (far too often to be ignored) it does not. If an instance of WKWebView shows this issue, it can not be "fixed" by reloading the page or loading other pages, this issue exists in this instance forever. My App is a web browser App so I can create and remove WKWebView instance easily (by opening or closing Tabs). And there are times where I never see this bug, and times where ever other tab shows this bug. It's totally unreliable. The App does not show any issues at all when running under iPadOS 17 or older. The issue is only present under iPadOS 18.x. After some testing I've found out that when the bug has affected an instance of WKWebView, the JavaScript call element.requestFullscreen() will work if the element is a video element, but does no longer work if it is another element (like a DIV). If an instance of WKWebView is not affected by this bug, element.requestFullscreen() will work for all HTML elements. Does anyone has experienced this bug as well? And maybe found a workaround? Or maybe found a pattern which helps to find out what exactly is triggering this bug?

We are developing an Add To Wallet flow on our website where we add the "Add To Wallet" button to a user portal for them to be able to add a loyalty card pass to their Apple Wallet. In other projects with Apple Pay, we can check whether or not the browser supports the JS library by checking if it exists on the global window property (if (window.ApplePaySession) { //do stuff } Is there an equivalent to determine if the user's device is capable of accepting a Wallet pass?

I'm building a share extension for my app when I noticed something weird. When I open a mobile URL (URLs with "m." like m.randomsite.org) on iOS using a browser (I'm using Safari & Chrome) and then try to share it, what will be share is the URL without the "m." (i.e. randomsite.org) This messes up with my app since I'm not getting the real URL that I'm viewing using the browser. I don't think it has something to do with my app since even selecting "Copy" when sharing will result in the altered URL too. So far this is happening on both iOS 17 and 18. Does someone know whether this is a bug from iOS or not? I don't think this is a Safari bug since I noticed the same thing on Chrome as well

After upgrading to Safari version 18, we encountered an issue with my extension’s background script not being able to access cookies. Previously, in Safari versions 17 and below, the extension worked as expected. Now, when the extension tries to retrieve cookies using browser.cookies.getAll(), it returns an empty list. However, if we open the extension’s developer tools, the cookies are visible and accessible. It seems that Safari only provides cookie data after the developer tools have been opened. However, after relaunching Safari and launching the extension without opening the developer tools, browser.cookies.getAll() still returns an empty list. Has anyone else experienced this? STEPS TO REPRODUCE Download this minimal app : https://www.icloud.com/iclouddrive/0bajlhnuQaG6T5NsFKXEB0U9Q#test%5Fcookies Compile test_mv2 extension (in test_cookies.getAll.zip). Launch test_mv2.app and activate extension. Click on the extension's button (browserAction). Open the developer tools. Observe an empty list of cookies. Click on the extension's button (browserAction). Cookies are retrieved as expected.

Safari samesite none cookie added after login but we are facing the issue in post method.

Kindly help me out.

We have an iOS app (which runs on macOS via "Designed for iPad") which renders web content on WKWebView. Our users can select text (standard OS way of click & drag cursor across text) and then perform actions on those discrete pieces of text. On macOS 15.1, our users can only expand a text selection, they cannot contract the text selection by dragging the cursor to the left. This reduces the usability of our app on macOS 15.1. This is not an issue on macOS 14. Environment: MacBook Pro (2021 16” M1 Max), macOS 15.1 Submitted Feedback FB15726254.

This is my first time to post on this forum. If there are something we didn't notice, please tell me. Thanks. Background We're using canvas to provide a web component to marketing. https://demo.mescius.jp/spreadjs/BenchmarkSample/ Problem Recently we have met an issue from customer. He is using iPad 10th to access the web component but when he tries to scroll it and it's very slow on iPad 10th. His iPad OS version is 17.7 and this issue also can be reproduced on our iPad 10th with iPad OS 18.0.1. But if we use iPad 9th with iPad OS 17.7 and 18.0.1, things are fine and there isn't any performance issue. We developer took some time investigating and found it's because of iPad 10th's safari takes longer time to paint each frame. On iPad 9th, it needs nearly 10ms to paint each frame. But on iPad 10, it needs nearly 70ms to paint each frame. Also we can provide simple code for you to check the different. We tried to simulate the repaint when user is scrolling. You can see on iPad 9th, it will be 2~3ms but on iPad 10th, it will be more than 10ms for each frame. test-ipad10.html It has been happening on iPad 10th only with iPad OS 17.6/17.7/18.0. This will be a big problem for us because it means on the iPad 10th (the latest iPad, non Pro or Air), it can't be used. Question Is there anyone knowing similar issue with this one? And do you know how to solve it on iPad 10?

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.

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) } }

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.

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).

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

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?

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.
