MacOS: 12 ( Monterrey )
Safari: 17.6
Demo Site: https://applepaydemo.apple.com/
At the bottom where the Apple Pay button should appear, I see a warning something like "This browser doesn't support Apple Pay, please use safari" along with a link to requirements for apple pay.
All the requirements are fulfilled, OS and Safari's version are above the minimum required.
Link was opened in Safari.
And the other thing is if I open the same site in Chrome, I can see the apple pay button and when I click on it a QR appears which is the expected behaviour.
How to resolve this?

There is no problem with the content display of each tab, but the tab bar is completely buggy.
If you open 5 or more tabs and browse tabs after the 5, the first 4 tab bars will be completely blacked out, and you don't even know how many tabs you have.
If you click on the place where the tab title probably exists, the tab is displayed as if the partial display of the tab bar has been restored.
There is no problem with content display. But because it is unclear what tab is open, the browsing experience is at its lowest.
If you switch to the tab after the 5th, the first 4 will return to the blackout state again.
Of course, it is the latest software configuration at the moment. There is no shortage of memory at 24GB.
I recently started developing a Safari extension with AppExtension, but is that due to it?

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
I am using SFSafariViewController to process payments via a Stripe checkout URL. Once the payment is completed, the user is redirected to a success URL. I have also added associated domains for deep linking. Below is my implementation:
func presentCheckout(url: String) {
showProgressHUD()
let checkoutURL = URL(string: url)!
safariVC = SFSafariViewController(url: checkoutURL)
safariVC.delegate = self
self.present(safariVC, animated: true)
}
// Delegate method implementations
func safariViewControllerDidFinish(_ controller: SFSafariViewController) {
print("SafariViewController dismissed")
// Handle dismissal
}
func safariViewController(_ controller: SFSafariViewController, initialLoadDidRedirectTo URL: URL) {
print(URL.absoluteString)
if URL.absoluteString.contains("xsworld/payment/stripe/checkout/success") {
controller.dismiss(animated: true) {
if URL.absoluteString.contains("/v1/resources/xsworld/payment/stripe/checkout") {
NotificationCenter.default.post(
name: Notification.Name("StripePaymentStatus"),
object: nil,
userInfo: ["url": URL]
)
}
}
} else if URL.absoluteString.contains("xsworld/payment/stripe/checkout/cancel") {
// Handle failure
NotificationCenter.default.post(
name: Notification.Name("StripePaymentStatus"),
object: nil,
userInfo: ["url": URL]
)
}
}
func safariViewController(_ controller: SFSafariViewController, didCompleteInitialLoad didLoadSuccessfully: Bool) {
if didLoadSuccessfully {
print("Initial page loaded successfully")
} else {
print("Initial page load failed")
}
}
Issue:
The safariViewController(_:initialLoadDidRedirectTo:) method does not always get called after the payment is completed. Sometimes it works as expected, and sometimes it does not trigger at all.
What I’ve Tried:
Ensuring the associated domains for deep linking are correctly set up.
Checking the success and failure URLs.
Debugging to see if the redirect happens but is not detected.
What I Need Help With:
I want to ensure that the redirection always works after the payment process is completed, whether through deep linking or another reliable approach. How can I guarantee that my app correctly detects and handles the redirect every time?
Any guidance or best practices would be greatly appreciated.

I'm trying to use DNR to force safe search with Qwant search engine.
Under certain circumstances (scenario described below) the search is performed with an API which contains the safe search level in a URL parameter. A typical query URL is https://api.qwant.com/v3/search/web?q=test&count=10&locale=fr_FR&offset=0&device=desktop&tgp=1&safesearch=0&displayed=true&llm=true.
I want a DNR rule to force safesearch to be 2 (= strict) (from some javascript code) :
{
id: 1,
priority: 1,
action: {
type: 'redirect',
"redirect": {
"transform": {
"queryTransform": {
"addOrReplaceParams": [{ "key": "safesearch", "value": "2" }]
}
}
}
},
condition: { "urlFilter": "api.qwant.com/v3/search", "resourceTypes": ["xmlhttprequest"] },
}
When this rule is activated, I end up with a URL with the original safesearch parameter AND the forced one : https://api.qwant.com/v3/search/web?q=test&count=10&locale=fr_FR&offset=0&device=desktop&tgp=1&safesearch=0&displayed=true&llm=true&safesearch=2.
To reproduce this request (with the previous DNR rule in place) :
navigate to https://www.qwant.com
search for some string (test in my case). This displays the list of results ;
click the engine button at the top right to display the settings pane ;
inspect network request performed by this page ;
change the Adult filter in the list -> the results are automatically updated with the new settings. The web request shows URL with the 2 safesearch parameters.
I already used addOrReplaceParams in 'standard' contexts (main_frame) and it works just fine. Any hint on what goes on ?
Thank you.
WebAuthn can be used in Safari, but when using it with WKWebView, you need to set the default browser definition (com.apple.developer.web-browser). Is this correct?
Also, is it possible that the terms of use will change or that it will no longer be available in WKWebView in the future?

I have a very specific issue that happens only on iOS Simulator version 18.4.
It does NOT happen when I run my app on a real iOS 18.4 device through Testflight.
My app displays a WebView (courtesy of Capacitor, url scheme capacitor://).
Inside that Webview I'm using Firebase JS API (11.2.0) and calling signInWithEmailAndPassword, which works well in all other contexts, i.e. browser, Android webview, iOS webview in all other Simulator versions, and on real devices.
Only when running in Simulator 18.4, I get a failed network request:
cannot parse response
Fetch API cannot load https://identitytoolkit.googleapis.com/v1/accounts:signInWithPassword?... due to access control checks.
Failed to load resource: cannot parse reponse
error: FirebaseError: (auth/network-request-failed)
Everything is working correctly for both:
Capacitor app webview installed on a real 18.4 device with Testflight
Safari (non-webview) in the 18.4 Simulator
The issue is severe for us, because we are unable to develop our app and test it in the simulator on 18.4 Simulator before pushing it through Testflight internal release.
Request headers on the failed request (no response status or headers available).

Our UI-less share extension (com.apple.services) appears in Safari and Chrome. We raise a popup "Open in (app)..." via the Action.js script document.location.href = urlScheme://... in Safari.
However, in Chrome, while our extension executes, parses the URL item attachment from Chrome, it never triggers that popup or opens our app.
How can a UI-less share extension open our app from Chrome?
Is the accepted practice, despite guidelines, turning the com.apple.ui-services view controller invisible and auto-openURLing? Several apps on the store appear to do this, immediately popping their app without any confirmation dialog or UI in both Safari and Chrome. https://stackoverflow.com/a/79369242
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.

Steps to Reproduce:
Open the Bing search page in Safari (example URL: https://www.bing.com/search?q=webkit&form=APIPH1&PC=APPL).
Pinch-zoom in or out, then return the page to exactly 100% zoom.
Rotate the device from portrait to landscape orientation.
Observe that the page is incorrectly scaled to a value other than 100%.
Rotate the device back to portrait orientation.
The page remains at the incorrect zoom level.
Expected Result:
After returning the page to 100% zoom, changing orientation should keep the zoom level at exactly 100% in both portrait and landscape modes.
Actual Result:
After returning to 100% zoom, rotating to landscape changes the zoom to a non-100% value, and rotating back to portrait retains the incorrect zoom level.

window.location.href = 'tel:0216700310'; I ran the code in an IOS environment. The number was displayed when the call button on the device appeared. However, other IOS devices besides some devices came out as a number starting with +82, and I received feedback that the call was not connected properly. I wonder what could be caused by only some devices. And I would also like to ask what can be done to allow the numbers on the code to be displayed and called as they are.

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.
Thank you very much for your help.
We would like to confirm the unsubscribe flow related to recurring payment processing.
When a user unsubscribes, does your system send any notification to us?
If no notification is provided, we will not be able to detect the unsubscribe event and will continue to send recurring payment requests to the gateway periodically. Would this cause any issues?
We would appreciate it if you could share the specific unsubscribe flow with us.
Thank you in advance for your support.
If "Not Secure Connection Warnings" is enabled in the Settings > App > Safari, are no HTTP connections allowed? Setting NSAppTransportSecurity does not seem to apply either.

An Administrator account is executing safaridriver --enable but it doesn't apply to other standard user accounts and standard accounts can't enable it directly. Is this expected behavior? How can standard users make use of safaridriver?
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...
Good morning fellow developers,
For a while i am struggeling with providing sound to my users on IOS (Safari on Mac is no problem and every other device is not a problem) (we have an existing phone system and made a chat as well), the case is very simple: the notification sound is only for users who are logged in and online for chat.
i have tried multiple things:
Audio play with javascript (start with mute, play when user clicks a button so the sound is familiar, play when user clicks a button and directly pause it and continue when needed)
PWA: the dashboard has been made available as pwa and notifications using google firebase. The popup does show for notifcations to be allowed (and receiving the notifications does work on any other device) But any IOS device cannot register.
The information i find is that notifications were supported with 16.4 or higher but also have been deprecated around IOS 17, auto play is not allowed.
We have an app in development for our product as well were we will have a notification which will handle this, but that is not the solution we can use now.
Long story, short question: is it still somehow possible to push a notification to the user when using the PWA or play a sound in the browser (based on an ajax function). The app/website wont be in the background, so it will always be on the screen.
Languages we use: html/javascript (mostly vanilla)/php
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.
