Hello Apple Developer Team, I would love to see iCloud Keychain Autofill and Touch ID support extended to Chromium-based browsers on macOS (such as Ecosia, Brave, or Vivaldi). Currently, Safari allows autofill of passwords using Touch ID, but when using other browsers, I have to manually copy-paste credentials from Keychain Access, which is time-consuming. Would it be possible for Apple to provide an API or framework that allows non-WebKit browsers to integrate iCloud Keychain autofill while keeping security intact? This feature would make macOS more convenient for users who prefer alternative browsers while keeping security standards high. Thanks in advance for considering this! Best regards, Kilian

We’re currently trying to implement Apple Pay on our checkout flow pages, which are part of a NextJS application. Due to the fact that our checkout flow is a React-based application, we’re not using the element, but a custom button. We are using the Apple Pay JS API. It seems like we are getting most of the pieces in place, however we’re not having any success with the session.onvalidatemerchant event. Currently when a user clicks the Apple Pay button, the Apple Pay dialog appears briefly with a ‘Payment not completed.’ message and then closes immediately. Given the nature of the issue it seems like it could possibly be a configuration error, but we’re not really sure how to check that everything is configured as it should be. Some questions that we have at the current moment: What version of the Apple Pay API should we be using? Should the domainName value that we’re passing to Apple contain https:// ? Should we be calling the https://apple-pay-gateway.apple.com/paymentservices/paymentSession endpoint directly from our front-end code? Should we pass data to session.completeMerchantValidation(sessionData); as a JavaScript object or JSON?

Hello everyone, I am currently facing an issue with a Cordova-based app using WKWebView. In our app, we handle page navigation within the WebView. We’ve implemented a back button at the top of the page, which successfully triggers history.goBack() when clicked. However, we also want to support the native left edge pan gesture (swipe back) to trigger history.back(). The issue is that, while the swipe back gesture works most of the time, there are cases where instead of navigating to the immediate previous page, it behaves as if it’s going back to the first page (or initial page). This only occurs on iOS versions 17.5.1 and above. I’ve already set allowsBackForwardNavigationGestures to true, and the back button itself works perfectly. Has anyone experienced a similar issue, where the swipe back gesture sometimes skips pages and seems to return to the first page on iOS 17.5.1 or later? Any suggestions on how to fix or troubleshoot this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Dear all, I have a web application, where it is possible to book a subscription on a monthyl / yearly basis via PayPal. Normally the users use the safari function "add-to-homescreen" for baving the webapp directly on the homescreen. Nevertheless, since one of the last updates, it is not possible to book a subscription via PayPal. But this is only for the homescreen variant. If i open it directly in safari everthying works as desigend. Looking forward to get some help from you. Thank you!

we are using angular and Html5 to develop our application, in our application we play videos that are placed on s3. Video when played on desktop borwser are adequatley audible but when played on iPad their volume is too low to be audible. I have tried video.volume =1 but it does not work for iPad because this property is only readable for ios devices. I have tried using javascript audioContext. It worked for my local machine. But when code is deployed on some hosted environments, it just does not work. Did anyone face the same issue? Any help regarding it will be appreciated.

I'm making a Safari extension for learning languages. I need speech synthesis for any language the user chooses to learn. I initially tried to make this work within JavaScript, but Safari 18 doesn't reliably list voices for all languages on the web SpeechSynthesis API as described here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/79179072/how-do-you-use-a-japanese-voice-with-speechsynthesis-in-safari-ios-18 As a workaround, I've had to use AVSpeechSynthesizer in SafariWebExtensionHandler (NSExtensionRequestHandling implementation for the extension). This works in the simulator but not on a real device. I've found this note from Apple in a StackOverflow reply: "Safari extensions are very short-lived, hence not fit for audio playback or speech synthesis. Not being able to validate an app extension in Xcode with a manually-added plist entry for background audio is the designed behavior. The general recommendation is to synthesize speech using JavaScript in conjunction with the Web Speech API." Unfortunately, the suggestion to use the Web Speech API is unsuitable as I just explained. Is there a way to set up a background process in the host app that can do speech synthesis? The app extension would need a way to communicate with this process, and start it if it's not running. Is that possible?

I'm not sure if this is even the right place to ask this, or voice this complaint if there's no fix. If not, please direct me where to go. I'm trying to switch all my development over to Safari, but the tab sidebar is driving me absolutely insane. Let's say I have a bunch of tab groups expanded, and I collapse the sidebar to focus on the webapp I am building. When I toggle to show the sidebar again, every single tab group is collapsed. Why is it 2 clicks to see the tabs in the sidebar? Even with zero tab groups, and just tabs in the workspace, if you collapse the sidebar it'll collapse the list of tabs. Is there some hidden setting for this? Who do we have to complain to?

Anybody succeeded sending a Web Push Message using the new Declarative approach introduced with Safari Version 18.4 (20621.1.14.11.3)? I will help as well if someone can point me to a solution debugging the entire system using Xcode and Minibrowser? Currently I can't get the MiniBrowser connected to the WebPush Daemon.

Styling overlap occurs between the input field style and the generated strong password field in Safari browser. Is there a way to completely override the original input field style with the styling of the filled strong password?

hi, I'm having an issue with Safari devlop menu "Web Extension Background Content" menu item being grayed out. I cant do any debugging right now and its becoming mission critical for us. Any help is appreciated. Thank you,

I'm working on a school project to build a webpage for Vision Pro users. I'm using Xcode to build this webpage because it has .reality files. This webpage only works on Safari because I took a spatial image with my Vision Pro, and it's .heic file type. I put the .png version below the .heic file that is supposed to have the spatial effect. I deployed this project on Vercel, please use Safari to check out the link: https://spatial-design-project.vercel.app There's another issue in this project, I downloaded the Cosmonaut .reality file on Apple Quick Look Gallery to test on my webpage. However, when I open it on Vision Pro, the file won't load, it says "Failed to load layers". Does it have something to do with the server for serving this file type? Should I use an actual web hosting company for this website? Here is my GitHub repo <div class="hero"> <div class="hero-text"> <h1>La Sal Peak</h1> <p>The Do-It-All Enduro Bike</p> </div> </div> <div class="hero2"> <div class="hero-text"> <h1>La Sal Peak</h1> <p>The Do-It-All Enduro Bike</p> </div> </div> .hero { position: relative; display: flex; align-items: flex-end; justify-content: flex-start; height: 100vh; background: url("assets/heroImage.heic") no-repeat center center/cover; color: white; } .hero2 { position: relative; display: flex; align-items: flex-end; justify-content: flex-start; height: 100vh; background: url("assets/hero.png") no-repeat center center/cover; color: white; }

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...

input type="file"でアップロードした画像データからGPS情報が除去されます。 こちらはiPadOS16.5.1で発生しておりました。 iPadOS17.4.1、iPadOS18.3では正常にGPS情報が保持されます。 iOS、iPadOSのアップデートでGPS情報を保持するよう修正されたと見受けられますが、リリースノートを参照しても上記修正についての記事を見つけられませんでした。 お手数ですが、上記修正に該当する記事をご教示頂けませんでしょうか。 どうぞよろしくお願い致します。

WebRTC and Web Audio are essential for modern web applications, powering everything from real-time voice communication to accessibility tools. However, in iOS Safari, these technologies are suspended as soon as the screen locks or Safari goes into the background. This makes web-based calling, live audio spaces, broadcast sessions and assistive applications unreliable for iOS users. Why This Matters: It’s impractical and inefficient. Asking users to keep their screen on to continue a WebRTC call wastes more battery, as the display is one of the most power-intensive components of a device. Allowing WebRTC audio to run in the background would be more battery-efficient than forcing the screen to stay lit for extended periods. Competing platforms allow WebRTC to run in the background. Safari’s restriction puts web-based applications at a disadvantage compared to native apps. Many industries depend on persistent WebRTC audio, including telehealth, live broadcasting, and accessibility tools. This restriction forces developers to build native iOS apps instead of using the open web, limiting web innovation and increasing development costs. Proposed Solution: Apple could implement an explicit user permission for background WebRTC, similar to how background audio playback is already handled for media apps. This would balance user security with the need for uninterrupted real-time communication—without forcing users to keep their screens on unnecessarily. I would love to hear if anyone has found workarounds or if Apple has commented on potential improvements in future iOS versions.

Hey, when I try to run my project on an iOS Simulator, I get the following message: JournalingSuggestions is not available when building for iOS Simulator. and Linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation) Steps to reproduce this behavior: Create a new Xcode project Add the Journaling Suggestions Capability Add the Journaling Suggestions Framework Under "Target > Build Phases > Link Binary with Libraries", select “optional“ for JournalingSuggestions.framework Under "Target > Build Settings > Other Linker Flags > Debug" select „Plus“ and add „iOS or iOS Simulator“ and paste this -Xlinker -weak_framework -Xlinker JournalingSuggestions into the editable field. Do the same for "Target > Build Settings > Other Linker Flags > Release" This tread is about the same problem, but is already checked as answered. That's why I'm creating this new tread. The last two bullet points are results from advice from the other thread. MacBook Air, M1, 2020, macOS: 14.6.1, Xcode: 16.0 Thanks for your help! Got the wrong keywords, trying to create a new thread...

I am currently developing a Chrome, Firefox and Safari web extension, and I am facing a CSP issue on the content script on Safari. The extension I develop has a content script that injects an img tag in the DOM of web pages the user is visiting. That img tag fetches its content at a specific URL. On Chrome and on Firefox, the img tag content fetches the content at the URL with no issue on every web pages, including those that set the CSP header img-src. On Safari, I'm getting the following error on web sites that set the img-src CSP header: Refused to load https://axxlfrmnpq.cloudimg.io/www.macifavantages.fr/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Garmin-logo.png?func=bound&w=225&h=113 because it does not appear in the img-src directive of the Content Security Policy. Here is the actual CSP img-src header content of the web page where, on Safari, the injected img tag does not load the content at https://axxlfrmnpq.cloudimg.io/www.macifavantages.fr/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Garmin-logo.png?func=bound&w=225&h=113: Content-Security-Policy: img-src https://secure.adnxs.com https://www.facebook.com https://.garmin.cn 'self' data: .garmin.com .trustarc.com .truste.com https://static.garmincdn.com https://www.google.com https://www.google.co.uk https://prefmgr-cookie.truste-svc.net https://res.cloudinary.com https://res.garmin.com https://.criteo.com https://.doubleclick.net https://www.googleadservices.com https://px.adentifi.com https://rtb.adentifi.com https://.teads.tv https://www.googletagmanager.com https://bat.bing.com https://.yahoo.com https://sync.outbrain.com https://*.google-analytics.com https://stats.g.doubleclick.net https://static.hotjar.com https://script.hotjar.com .akamaihd.net https://.tealiumiq.com https://deploytealium.com https://pixel.mediaiqdigital.com; My question is, is the page CSP blocking the img tag injected in the web page by the extension's content script? If so, is this behavior documented somewhere, or is it a Safari bug? I saw there is a similar post on the forum, but I couldn't find if the issue is a bug or if it's the expected behavior on Safari: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/651542?login=true.

I’m encountering an issue with CSS not displaying when using WKURLSchemeHandler to load local HTML files. When I package the app using Xcode 15.3 or above, the CSS styles do not display on iOS 17 or higher. However, on iOS 16.7.1, the CSS displays correctly. • If I use Xcode 15.2 to package the app, the CSS loads and displays correctly on all iOS versions. I am using WKURLSchemeHandler to intercept and load the local HTML files. Is there any known issue or workaround for this?

In the Safari browser on mobile devices, the tags in an HTML element are styled with the system's default styles. I want the text inside the tags to be displayed without line breaks. However, in reality, the text wraps according to its length. May I ask if there are any methods to achieve this? (ps: CSS-related properties such as white-space: nowrap do not work.)

On my M3 MacBook Pro 14'' laptop, when using Safari responsive design mode I cannot see any simulators when choosing "Open With Simulator". I am on the latest Sequoia 15.1 and Xcode version is 16.1. However when I successfully run a simulator from Xcode (Developer Tools -> Simulator) I can see the simulator running in the "Open With Simulator" dropdown but I cannot click it to run it with my safari desktop. I can never link my desktop safari app to a simulator. I feel I have read almost every how to blog but have no more options left to get this working. I've tried reinstalling Xcode and the iOS 18.1 environment on it, updating safari and anything else that might be out of date but still with no luck after much restarting programs and my machine. Is there another way to try and run a simulator from Safari?
