I have a Safari Extension which replaces default new tab and puts a link on a generated new tab. This link can be either usual URL link, or a URL Scheme, something like plecoapi://x-callback-url/df?hw=${char}&sec=dict In iOS 17 and previosly, this link worked flawlessly. In iOS 18, including 18.2, this X-Callback-URL link works only once, if I kill Safari process, reopen Safari and tap the link. Each subsequent tap will just reload the page, link won't work anymore until the next Safari reload. Usual URL links works every time without a problem.

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

Hey there. I recently completed an Apple Pay (on the web) integration and it has been working fine, for the most part. I had one customer contact us saying that it didn't work on his devices though. I checked it out, and while it does normally work (and we've had over a thousand transactions use it) there does seem to be some scenarios where it fails and I'm not sure why. I was able to replicate his issue (or at least an issue) by using BrowserStack. When I click the button which should initiate the payment, everything works in the JS code until it gets to the applePaySession.begin() function call. Once it hits that, it just stops. No errors are generated and no notice is given that anything is wrong until you try to do it a second time. Then an error about a payment session already being active on the page is thrown. I'm not really sure how to troubleshoot this since I know it works on my old iPad Air 2, my current M4 Macbook, multiple other devices, and also works when scanning the QR code for use on an iPhone. There is some very specific thing with some very specific versions of Safari that seem to be tripping it up. If it helps, the version of Safari on the BrowserStack device is 18.1, but the version on my Macbook is 18.1.1. The version the customer who is having the issue is on is 18.2 according to him. The customer also says they have used ApplePay on other websites with no issues. I checked one of them and they appear to be using a PayPal integration, where as I am using the ApplePay SDK straight from Apple. There are quite a few variables at play here, and I'm just trying to narrow down what I should be looking at. If one person is reporting the issue, there are probably others with it as well.

I want a way to avoid the error，Thanks STEPS TO REPRODUCE Run iOSTest.xcodeproj on iOS17.5 Tap WKWebview(Camara) Waiting webview load url tap 手持设备训练 立即开始 download demo https://github.com/xuty/Report22/raw/refs/heads/main/iOSTest_1_url.zip

Hi, Our company has an application uses the WKWebview to host a lot of content. The content is web based and hosts a lot of charts and metrics. Because of the high content, we've seen the memory of the WebContent hit above 1.25 GB. When that happens, it'll eventually terminate and we have our recovery code to reload the same page Seems like the limit is hidden / internal. Some Apple devs also noted something might be hard coded to be limited as well. Yes, we have our optimizations but we still need to keep our queries, use react, cache, etc... It's just a heavy web application. Request: Can you help us raise that limit? Are there some limitations in Webkit for such a need to terminate? As some devices have much higher RAM than before, we were hoping to be able to dynamically adjust the limit for the wkwebview before it resets. We contacted our internal contacts but they said to post here.

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?

On iOS 18 only, I've been getting this error from the didFailToContinueUserActivityWithType in AppDelegate, the activity needed for universal links. It didn't happen on previous versions of it. Has anyone encountered this ?

When configuring a Per-App VPN payload with 250+ Safari domains under a managed app, the VPN does not trigger for the other managed apps(like chrome etc). However, the same VPN successfully starts and works when used with Safari. Reducing the number of Safari domains in the VPN payload resolves the issue, allowing the VPN to trigger for the managed app as expected. Has anyone else faced this issue, and what's the workaround for it?

Hi there, we have found a problem, after switching audio tracks multi times when play the HLS, there will be a few seconds of no sound playing after audio track switching, Is there a solution to this problem?

On Mac, If the user registers the Password and the Software Authenticator app for a website like PayPal then uses the Safari browser to login the Apple system is creating confusion. The system prompts to use the authenticator autofill for any grid like SMS OTP or even for the Email OTP. That creates confusion for the user as the SMS OTPs or other OTPs cannot be validated by auto filling the Authenticator TOTP. That fails the validation resulting in bad user experience. The system should not prompt the Autofill from the Authenticator app unless the grid box shown on the page was for the Authenticator app.

Need to connect HTTPS proxy (encrypt all data). If it is possible from iPhone or iPad through phone settings or special app?

Enhancement in managing tabs in Safari It would really be awesome to bring the fascinating tab management feature of Arc Browser to Safari across iOS, iPadOS and macOS. Especially below listed features; Multitask Create Organize Rev Up Release Notes For further info , here is the official link of Arc Browser, https://resources.arc.net/hc/en-us/categories/16435255982103-Features.

**Description: ** We have implemented a process to launch a native app from a browser (Safari) via universal links. However, under certain conditions, the app does not launch seamlessly, and an error page is displayed in the browser. In such cases, a button to open the app appears at the top of the error page, and pressing this button successfully opens the app. The error page is a blank white page with only the following error message displayed: "NoSuchKeyThe specified key does not exist." We want to confirm the detailed specifications and conditions of the behavior where seamless transition via universal links fails. If there are means to suppress or control the occurrence of this issue, please let us know. Configuration: OS: iOS 18.1 Device: iPad 9th generation, 10th generation **Reproduction Steps: ** When attempting to launch the app via a universal link, a pop-up appears asking "Do you want to allow this page to open ?" If 'Cancel' is pressed in this pop-up, the issue occurs the next time the app is launched via a universal link. However, we have also confirmed that this issue can occur due to operations other than this one, and we have not been able to pinpoint the conditions under which it occurs. Therefore, we would like to confirm the detailed specifications and conditions leading to the occurrence of this issue.

The web page image is not fully displayed, only part of it is rendered. Switch the app to the background and then to the foreground, and the incomplete image will be rendered correctly again.

We are Java application developers and we have a question regarding camera access via WebRTC on iPadOS. Specifically, on iPadOS 17.1, we are encountering an issue when trying to access the camera via the WKWebView API in the Chrome browser, where an error occurs and the camera capture fails. Our investigation suggests that device access through the navigator.mediaDevices property via the WKWebView API may not work in Chrome. However, it works as expected in the Safari browser, leading us to wonder if this is a Chrome-specific limitation, or if it's due to an iPadOS setting or specification. At this point, we are unsure if this issue is related to the WKWebView and WebRTC specifications on iPadOS 17.1, or if there are specific limitations in Chrome. We would appreciate any insights or solutions regarding camera access in iPadOS 17.1 with WKWebView and WebRTC, especially in relation to Chrome.

Safari 18.2 on Sequoia 15.2 sends repeated Authorization header when iCloud Relay is enabled and the page is reloaded. Inside Safari Preferences -> Privacy -> Hide IP address -> from Trackers and Websites (ensure this is enabled) Visit a website that uses HTTP Authorization and authenticate oneself Reload website a couple of times and it will result in an HTTP 400 error due to repeat Authorization header sent by Safari

Hi everyone, I'm facing an issue with accessing device orientation and motion events in Safari on my iPhone (iOS 18). Despite trying several guides and solutions, I cannot find the option to allow access to motion and orientation for websites in the browser settings. I’ve checked privacy settings, and the device is up to date. Can anyone guide me on how to enable this feature in Safari or share any workarounds? Thanks in advance!

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!

When I download specific files (not limited to a single website), even if I find that the downloaded file size matches the original file size and the downloaded file size no longer changes, Safari still does not stop the download thread, but continues to wait indefinitely. This results in the Safari not terminating the download thread even after the file download is completed, making it impossible to complete the download; The file has not been landed and cannot be obtained. This prevents me from downloading some files. Please fix this problem. In addition, I found that in iOS 18.2, during the process of downloading files on Safari, the synchronization and backup flags appear in the upper right corner of the notification bar. I am not sure if this is an unexpected behavior, but the flag still lingers for a long time after manually canceling the download thread. (the download thread is waiting indefinitely) Feedback Number: [FB16124044]

If fetch is executed immediately after document become visible (on visibilitychange event), it will fail after 20-40s with TypeError with message Load failed. If it is executed after short delay after document become visible, fetch will likely to succeed.
