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.

Our app connects to the headend to get a IDP login URL for each connection session, for example: “https://myvpn.ocwa.com/+CSCOE+/saml/sp/login?ctx=3627097090&acsamlcap=v2” and then open embedded webview to load the page. (Note: the value of ctx is session token which changes every time). Quite often the webview shows blank white screen. After user cancel the connection and re-connect, the 2nd time webview loads the content successfully.
The working case logs shows:
didReceiveAuthenticationChallenge is called
decidePolicyForNavigationAction is called twice
didReceiveAuthenticationChallenge is called
decidePolicyForNavigationResponse is called
didReceiveAuthenticationChallenge is called
But the failure case shows:
Filed to terminate process: Error Domain=com.apple.extensionKit.errorDomain Code=18 "(null)" UserInfo={NSUnderlyingError=0x11461c240 {Error Domain=RBSRequestErrorDomain Code=3 "No such process found" UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=No such process found}}}
didReceiveAuthenticationChallenge is called
decidePolicyForNavigationAction is called
decidePolicyForNavigationResponse is called
If we stop calling evaluateJavaScript code to get userAgent, the blank page happens less frequently. Below is the code we put in makeUIView():
func makeUIView(context: Context) -> WKWebView
{
if let url = URL(string: self.myUrl)
{
let request = URLRequest(url: url)
webview.evaluateJavaScript("navigator.userAgent")
{
result, error in
if let error = error
{
NSLog("evaluateJavaScript Error: \(error)")
}
else
{
let agent = result as! String + " " + self.myUserAgent
webview.customUserAgent = agent
webview.load(request)
}
}
}
return self.webview
}
Found some posts saying call evaluateJavaScript only after WKWebView has finished loading its content. However, it will block us to send the userAgent info via HTTP request. And I don’t think it is the root cause since the problem still occurs with less frequency.
There is no problem to load same web page on Windows desktop and Android devices. The problem only occurs on iOS and macOS which both use WKWebview APIs.
Is there a bug in WKWebview?
Thanks,
Ying
Hello
I built a WordPress website with a three.js/react front page. On iOS chrome, Android chrome, and desktop chrome all is working well. However, on Safari mobile when the animation loads a downward swipe causes the page to refresh rather than scroll as is intended and working correctly on all the other browsers. Strangely, scroll up works initially and then downward scroll begins to work. I have tried various iterations of overscroll behavior but still cannot aolbe the issue. Any help would be appreciated.

正文:大家好,
当设备连接到没有互联网的 Wi-Fi SSID(例如,硬件设备的 AP)时,我看到 NSURLSession(multipathServiceType = NSURLSessionMultipathServiceTypeInteractive)和 WKWebView 之间的行为存在令人费解的差异。我正确启用了多路径授权,在这种情况下:
NSURLSession 请求会自动回退到蜂窝网络并成功(无需用户干预,快速切换)。
WKWebView 加载失败或停滞:Web 内容未出现,即使系统网络路径得到满足并确认了真正的 Internet 可访问性,Web 视图似乎也没有使用蜂窝路径。
环境:
iOS 版本:(例如 iOS 18.4)
设备:(例如 iPhone 15 Pro)
多路径权利:在应用程序中启用,使用 NSURLSessionMultipathServiceTypeInteractive
连接的 SSID:硬件设备 Wi-Fi,无需外部互联网
预期回退:一旦 Wi-Fi 没有互联网,就会自动到蜂窝网络,如 NSURLSession 所观察到的那样
我做了什么/观察到什么:
使用多路径的 NSURLSession 按预期工作:NSURLSessionConfiguration *cfg = [NSURLSessionConfiguration defaultSessionConfiguration];cfg.multipathServiceType = NSURLSessionMultipathServiceTypeInteractive;NSURLSession *session = [NSURLSession sessionWithConfiguration:cfg];NSURLRequest *req = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@“https://www.apple.com/library/test/success.html”]];NSURLSessionDataTask *task = [session dataTaskWithRequest:req completionHandler:^(NSData *data, NSURLResponse *resp, NSError *err) { NSLog(@“NSURLSession result: %@, error: %@”, resp, err); }];[任务简历];连接到设备 Wi-Fi(无外部 Internet)时,会话会悄悄地切换到手机网络并成功完成。
相同情况下WKWebView加载失败:[self.webView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@“https://www.apple.com/library/test/success.html”]]];Web 视图要么显示负载失败,要么只是挂起,即使较低级别的监视报告网络路径已满足并且真正的 Internet 连接可用。
网络路径监控逻辑:
我使用 C API nw_path_monitor来监视nw_path_status_satisfied。
一旦观察到满意,我就会使用nw_connection(例如,连接 tohttps://www.apple.com/library/test/success.html)执行真正的连接检查,以验证真实的互联网流量是否可以通过蜂窝网络流动。
该检查通过,确认回退到手机网络,但 WKWebView 仍不会加载内容。同时,相同条件下的 NSURLSession 请求会立即成功。
示例日志记录跟踪:[+] nw_path_status_satisfied=1, hasWiFi=1, hasCellular=1 [+] Internet 连接测试:准备就绪(通过 nw_connection) [-] WKWebView 加载失败/停滞 [+] NSURLSession 请求成功完成
问题:
为什么当 Wi-Fi 没有 Internet 时,具有多路径服务类型的 NSURLSession 无缝使用蜂窝网络,但 WKWebView 不表现出相同的回退行为?WKWebView 是否不以相同的方式接受系统的多路径回退?在这种情况下,它是否使用不同的网络堆栈或忽略多路径授权?
是否有一种受支持的方法可以强制 WKWebView 像 NSURLSession 一样运行?
例如,我是否可以通过启用多路径的 NSURLSession 桥接内容,并通过自定义方案将其注入 WKWebView?
是否有任何 WKWebView 配置标志、首选项或策略启用相同的自动接口切换?
与原始 NSURLSession 相比,WKWebView 处理网络接换、路径满意度或多路径的方式是否存在已知限制或记录在案的差异?
我排除/尝试过的:
已验证多路径授权是否包含且处于活动状态。
确认的网络路径“满足”,并且在调用 [webView loadRequest:] 之前,真正的 Internet 可访问性成功。
将 WKWebView 加载延迟到连接验证之后。
观察到 NSURLSession 请求在相同的连接条件下成功。
任何对内部差异、推荐的解决方法或 Apple 推荐的模式的见解,以使 Web 内容在“没有互联网的 Wi-Fi”+ 自动回退到蜂窝场景中变得健壮,我们将不胜感激。
谢谢!

I have a business scenario where I want to guide users to Safari and open a Safari extension. How can I open Safari from my app and navigate to a specific webpage?

We are experiencing a problem that seems to be caused by a specification changes for Safari.
We would like to discuss how to solve this problem.
Sample JavaScript:
<html>
<head>
<script>
function jumpPage(code) {
document.main.code.value = code;
win1=window.open("","win1","toolbar=no,resizable=yes,menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,status=yes,left=0,top=0");
win1.resizeTo(width=screen.availWidth,height=screen.availHeight);
document.main.action="details";
document.main.target="win1";
document.main.submit();
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name="main" method="post" action="" target="">
<a href="javascript:jumpPage('001')">details</a>
<input type="hidden" name="code" value="">
</body>
</html>
This JavaScript performs the following actions when a link is clicked.
Open a window using window.open in JavaScript
Submit the above opened window by post method to the target in JavaScript.
When this operation is performed, the process in (2) could submit to the
target page with “POST” method before iOS18.1, but
will transition to the page with“GET”method from iOS18.2 onward.
All protocols are http.
This problem does not occur if the URL is specified as an IP address, but it does occur if the host name is specified as.
Please let me know how to use with“POST”method as in iOS 18.2 or earlier.
Best regards,

Hey team, I've integrated custom WkWebsiteDatastore to manage profiling for different sessions.
upon testing the WkWebsiteDataStore as its mentioned to be persistent But
The storage can be accessed via identifier, But the session data in storage is absent, such as cookies caches all are cleared when app is relaunched
is it the default behavior to be expected or there is some property missing causing the session data to be removed from storage.
I'm trying to download mods for Stardew Valley, before the beta it worked but now it doesn't. Is there anyone who can help to fix this? Used Firefox and Safari as well as Safari on my ipad.
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.
Chrome's Incognito mode can not open app from universal link on iOS. It's opened a web page instead of launching the app even the app already installed on the iOS device.

Hello,
When I view my website (lasaluade) on iphone or ipad the top of my page bodies are cut off (3-4 first lines). However, on PC, Mac or Android everything is OK (see screenshots).
For the record, I built this site with Wordpress and Divi Builder, and I've the same result on Safari and Chrome.
Not being a developer, I don't know where to look (I just think it's iOS-related).
Have you already had this problem? Do you have any ideas?
Thanks for your help!

It seems that in iOS 18.5+ built with Xcode 16.4+, there has been a breaking change since 18.4 with 16.3 within WebKit and how the navigationAction.sourceFrame property is initialized when implementing the decidePolicy delegate method.
The flow goes:
Implement a WKNavigationActionDelegate with decidePolicy
Call WKWebView.loadHTMLString("some-string", baseURL: nil)
Upon loading the HTML content, read the value of navigationAction.sourceFrame within the decidePolicy method of the WKNavigationActionDelegate
On iOS 18.4 (and below) with Xcode 16.3 (and below);
navigationAction.sourceFrame is <uninitialized>
On iOS 18.5+ with Xcode 16.4+:
navigationAction.sourceFrame is already initialized and is equal to navigationAction.targetFrame
It appears that this change was made between minor versions of Xcode and is unexpected behavior of a minor version. Not only was this not called out in the release notes for Xcode 16.4 and iOS 18.5, but it's technically also a breaking change to the WebKit API.
Can we get insight on why this change was made and what Apple's policy is on breaking changes between minor versions of Xcode/iOS?
I'm using navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition to retrieve the users coordinates in a PWA built with Nextjs. getCurrentPosition is called by clicking on a button. If getCurrentPosition is called afterwards, the cached value is returned. On Safari, If I refresh the page, or logout, login and call getCurrentPosition again, the getCurrentPosition error callback is called with an error code 2 - POSITION_UNAVAILABLE. After around five minutes, getCurrentPosition can be called again.
Is there some kind of throttling restriction on Safari navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition?
I have a website that has been built in Wordpress and hosted on wordpress engine. In testing now and on the i phone with safari browser it keeps crashing after short time 2/3 minutes, content does not display properly pages go blank etc. Has anyone experienced this /have a solution? Thanks
Hi Apple Devs & WebKit Team,
We operate https://excnum.com — a personal website currently under reconstruction. It's HTTPS-secure, hosted on a clean VPS, and now features a simple placeholder page with no active forms, scripts, or external redirects.
However, Safari on both iOS and macOS is flagging it as a “deceptive website”, blocking all access. This warning appears even though:
The site uses a valid SSL certificate via Cloudflare
There are no redirects, tracking scripts, or dynamic code
We serve a static landing page (“under maintenance”) with zero interaction
No malware, phishing, or obfuscation exists — verified with multiple tools
A review request has already been submitted at: https://websitereview.apple.com
We believe the site may have been blacklisted previously under past ownership or prior configurations. It has since been completely restructured and cleared, but the Safari warning persists.
This false flag is harming visibility and trust for an otherwise neutral website.
Any advice on how to expedite re-evaluation or request a manual delisting from the deceptive site list would be much appreciated.
Thank you!

Hello Apple App Review Team,
We are using Privy to enable sign in with Farcaster in our app. Privy is a 3rd party authentication SDK, and it currently opens the authentication URL using the system browser.
Unfortunately, this behavior is handled internally by Privy and we do not have access or control to override it in order to present the sign-in flow in-app using SFSafariViewController.
We understand the importance of maintaining a seamless and secure user experience, and we fully support the use of SFSafariViewController or ASWebAuthenticationSession. However, since Privy does not expose an option to change this behavior at the moment, we are limited by their current implementation.
We have reached out to the Privy team requesting a change or improvement that would allow us to use SFSafariViewController instead of the external browser. In the meantime, we would appreciate your guidance on how to proceed, or whether an exception could be granted due to this 3rd party SDK limitation.
Thank you for your understanding and support.
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."

Hi,
I am wondering if anyone has experience with Smart Banners for an application not released on the app store, but still in TestFlight, specifically an AppClip.
I am working on an exisiting project where a Smart Clip is used with a smart banner on the website for core functionality. Previously, even in test environment (app is in test flight and not app store) the smart banner would correctly show on the website and allow testers to launch the app clip experience, however this no longer seems to work.
Its noted the test environment was last tested and deployed 2 years ago, and was working correctly, and there have been no changes to the website (the meta tag and .aasa file are all setup correctly). The only recent change was upgrading the app to support the latest iOS version, however beyond that no functionality in the app has changed.
Apple developer support hasn't been very helpful, and reviewed our account and stated "everything appears to be running as expected on our end"
Has something changed in Safari in that it no longer accepts test flight app smart banners, and if it doesn't, does anyone have any other suggestions?
Cheers
We are seeing network errors in Outlook mail on iOS and MacOS safari browsers.
As per current investigation, we notice these network error when the user tries to use outlook after leaving it open on Safari for a while.
Observations:
Issue present in both MacOS and iOS safari.
Issue is not present in other webkit browsers like brave and edge on iOS.
Issue is reproable on both mini and big owa on safari browser.
Issue is not related to post requests being sent in different packets on safari browser.
Requests are only blocked for outlook.office/outlook.live domains
What does not fix this issue?
Reloading the application
Clearing cookie, local storage or session storage
Unregistering service workers
Redirecting to a different page and coming back to outlook domain
Re authenticating the users
What fixes this issue?
Reconnecting to wifi or mobile network
Reconnecting vpn
Removing safari from background and reopening
Flushing the dns in setting
Python version 3.9.1
Selenium version 4.25.0
Safari version 18.1.1
