I want use the Safari Extension to decorate the window.fetch function, But No matter how I try, I can't get the fetch function to execute correctly. I was going through the documentation: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/safariservices/using-injected-style-sheets-and-scripts and found this sentence: "Injected scripts have an implied namespace — you don’t have to worry about your variable or function names conflicting with those of the website author, nor can a website author call functions in your extension. In other words, injected scripts and scripts that you include in the webpage run in isolated worlds, with no access to each other’s functions or data." Does this mean I can't modify the window object in the content script just like a Chrome extension does with the webpage? BTW, In chrome I use chrome.scripting.executeScript API, and in plasmo I just use world: "MAIN" content script's config to achieved this feature.

Hello, I am developing Safari Content Blocker extension and discovered that it frequently fails to load with large amount of rules. Currently I have over 45k and most of the time when I reload the extension on iOS 18 (iPhone 12) it ends with error: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4097 "connection to service named com.apple.SafariServices.ContentBlockerLoader" UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=connection to service named com.apple.SafariServices.ContentBlockerLoader} #0 And the simpler message is just: Couldn’t communicate with a helper application. From what I managed to find (for example here - https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/756931) the limit for blocking rules should be 150k items. It was previously 50k but got increased years ago. Is there anything special I need to do to get the extension to work reliably with say 100k items? I am usng the JSON format from the docs: { "trigger": { ... }, "action": { ... } }, { "trigger": { ... }, "action": { ... } } ] My trigger is url-filter and the action is type: block I was thinking about providing multiple JSON files in attachments property of NSExtensionItem but apparently that is not supported. Thanks for help!

I am currently operating an app using an embedded web server that communicates over local HTTP. Recently, when opening Safari, I started encountering the following error message: "Safari cannot open the page. Error: Failed to navigate to an HTTP URL with HTTPS-only mode enabled." However, I am currently in a situation where switching to HTTPS is difficult. Are there any solutions to resolve this issue besides using HTTPS? Thank you.🙏

Hi there, I use the Clipboard API to create formatted project links with a "copy link" button. This has been really versatile for end users. When they paste into their email, they get a hyperlinked project name that leads to the project, and when they paste into the URL bar, they just get the project URL. It used to be that pasting into Messages on Mac would yield the same behavior as pasting into the URL bar. But recently, Messages started only pasting the inner text of the HTML clipboard, so no URL, just the project name, which isn’t very useful for a copy link function. Is there any way to ensure that Messages pastes the URL while maintaining my formatting options on other surfaces?

I'm developing an application that needs smooth framerates within a wkwebview that interacts with native code. However, requestAnimationFrame by default is still throttled to 60hz even if all my target devices (the iPad Pro for example) have supported 120hz for a long time already. I noticed that the latest Safari in 18.3 beta supports unlocked framerates, but that's only under Safari feature flags. To my knowledge, these flags do not apply to WKWebView. Is there a way to enable unlocked framerate in WKWebView via requestAnimationFrame? (Calling JS at a faster rate from the native code side will not work, almost definitely, since WKWebView will still render at its own rate.) This is an experimental application for internal use and I'm okay if there are temporary beta solutions available.

Hi folks, When doing HLS v6 live streaming with fmp4 chunks we noticed that when the encoder timestamps slightly drift and a #EXT-X-DISCONTINUITY tag is created in either the audio or video playlist (in an ABR setup), the tag is not correctly handled by the player leading to a broken playback containing black screen or no audio (depending on which playlist the tag is printed in). We noticed that this is often true when the number of tags is odd between the playlists (eg. the audio playlist contains 1 tag and the video contains 2 tags will result in a black screen with audio). By using the same "broken" source but using Shaka player instead won't break the playback at all. Are there any possible fix (or upcoming) for AV Player?

When a tab goes to sleep, all its resources gets killed. When the user has any interaction it gets active again. However, if there is an audio in the tab, it does not play again even after user interaction. One has to reload/reopen the tab. Is this how it should work? Is there a fix for this?

Safari throw a ViewTransition error, called ' Unhandled Promise Rejection: AbortError: Old view transition aborted by new view transition.' however, i don't find how to catch it. i used 'try..catch' or Promise.catch, or catch it in finished/ready/updateCallbackDone Promise. These all don't work.

PWA works perfectly fine in safari browsers in mac but in mobile devices it is not working it just shows, There is no internet connection. found a fix from ios release - https://developer.apple.com/documentation/safari-release-notes/safari-17_2-release-notes but actually it is not solving the issue. in my case even it is not throwing the issue - fix is - Fixed a cache miss bug in DOMCache that triggered service worker fetch errors.

Hi there, I have a problem that , after I add website at dock but unable to turn on the website from dock & pop up message also mention that app was damaged. This problem appears after I factory reset my iMac. Please kindly advise. Thank guys.

Is it a specification that the Service Worker doesn’t work in an internal iframe only when the parent page in a WebView is file://? It works in Mobile Safari under the same conditions, and we couldn’t find any specification that says Service Worker-like behavior doesn’t work with this combination. Step to reproduce: We use Vite to develop the application. For the iframe in Webview, Install vite-plugin-pwa with version ^0.20.5 Add VitePWA({...}) to plugins[] array in vite.config.ts Build and preview the app: npm run build && npm run preview. We open a Webview with file:// and then open the iframe with the URL to which we preview the app (We use ngrok to create the URL). Then we open Safari and inspect the Webview but inside the Developer > Service workers tab doesn’t have a registered service worker. For safari, we do the same step 1-3, We open Safari browser with the URL that we have deployed the app (The same URL we used in the iframe in Webview). We go inside the Developer > Service workers tab and it has a registered service worker. Environment: Simulator: IOS 18.2 Safari: MacOS 15.2 Expectation: Safari and the iframe in Webview should have a registered service worker inside the Developer > Service workers.

Python version 3.9.1 Selenium version 4.25.0 Safari version 18.1.1 I want to operate Safari using Selenium. For this purpose, I would like to set the UserAgent to iOS and change the viewport. What should I do? The following is the content programmed with the Chrome driver. I would like to achieve this using the Safari driver. import time,os import chromedriver_binary from selenium import webdriver from selenium.webdriver import Safari from selenium.webdriver.safari.options import Options as SafariOptions from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC from selenium.webdriver.support.select import Select from selenium.webdriver.chrome import service # selenium 4 from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service as ChromeService from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=ChromeService(ChromeDriverManager().install()),options = chrome_options) # iPhone 13 params viewport = { "width": 390, "height": 844, "deviceScaleFactor": 3, "mobile": True } #Chrome setting ua = "Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 15_0 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/15.4 Mobile/15E148 Safari/604.1" driver.execute_cdp_cmd("Emulation.setDeviceMetricsOverride", viewport) # change user agent driver.execute_cdp_cmd("Emulation.setUserAgentOverride", {"userAgent": ua}) # ページにアクセス driver.get("https://hogehoge")

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!

Hi Apple Team, Can we use SFSafariViewController to launch a 3rd party passkey authentication experience from a native iOS app? Regards

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?

Hello, I’m encountering a problem with WebSocket connections in Safari on iOS 18.1 and later when initiated from an iframe. The same implementation works perfectly in other browsers like Chrome but fails in Safari. In Safari, the WebSocket connection fails with error message "WebSocket connection to 'wss://MY_CONNECTION_URL' failed: The internet connection appears to be offline." Has anyone else faced this? Is this a known limitation or bug in Safari? Any workarounds or solutions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

It's being a very long time that I discovery that in some web pages, that use function requestAnimationFrame will cause a lot of cpu, but very little in Chrome. I have already submitted this bug nearly two years ago without printout requestAnimationFrame, no one replied. I submitted again and mention requestAnimationFrame recently, hope there will be some response. If anyone interested in this issue and know some tech in javascript please help. You can enter https://www.baidu.com/ and click one of the topic in all the 百度热搜 which have 弹幕滚动(using requestAnimationFrame, and cause a lot of cpu usage) on right.

When I'm inspecting a WKWebView in a simulator and the WKWebView loads a local URL with a port number, I've found that most features of Safari dev tools that worked in iOS 17 are broken in iOS 18. Here are the steps I'm taking: Set up a WKWebView with isInspectable = true that loads a local URL, e.g. https://www.local.mydomain.com:3000 Install a self-signed SSL certificate on a simulator for www.local.mydomain.com Run my app on the simulator The WKWebView loads successfully In Safari on my Mac, I can select the WKWebView and open dev tools to inspect it If the simulator is on iOS 17, this works fine, no issues. But if the simulator is on iOS 18, Safari dev tools are mostly broken. I can tell that there is a connection to the WKWebView because the Network tab logs the requests that I expect. But I cannot use any of the other dev tools features: Elements, Sources, Console, etc. Has anyone else encountered this? Is there a workaround?

Hello there I have a nested USDZ file I had created a long time ago with some make-up products. Its behaviour was always the same in the past: nested usdz files allow you to control each object "nested" separately. So I used this as a way to allow people to play around with a "set of objects". Today I went to try it and since I'm on ios 18 it shows an "assets tab" on the bottom that allows me to see all the assets inside the tab but doesn't allow me to see or anchor them at all! What changes do I need to do in order for this to work and where can I check documentation on these new behaviours for USDZ files? And what will this allow for in the future? Thank you in advance

I’m trying to understand how the Reddit app knows to open in its anonymous mode when a link is opened from Safari’s Private Browsing mode. Does Safari explicitly pass any flag or metadata indicating the request originated from Private Browsing? Or is it inferred by the absence of shared cookies, session tokens, or other stateful data? If the detection is based on the absence of cookies, could this logic misidentify other stateless scenarios as ‘private’?
