Hello, I am in the process of converting a Web Extension to a Safari Extension. I need to use browser.downloads.onCreated.addListener in my extension but the browser.downloads API is not supported yet. Do I have another way to do that?

I posted in the other but they removed it and told me to Post here but anyone know what might have changed or what new experimental feature was added to the list for safari the last two updates? I have been having massive slow or lagging and glitches with my games and safari after this last update. So trying to see which was was newly added.

Hi, We have recently noticed that the speech recognition API in Safari is extremely slow and inaccurate, specifically on iPhone 14 with iOS 16.1.1 … but works fine on iPhone 12 with the same iOS 16.1.1. Does anybody else run into the same issue or have any suggestions?

I'm trying to use Web Codecs API to Decode HEVC stream(safari 16.4). However, when I configured the the Decoder like follow, it raise an rejection 'Config is not valid': VideoDecoder.isConfigSupported({ codec: 'hvc1.1.6.L120.B0', codedWidth: 1920, codedHeight: 1080, }).then(res=>{ console.log(res) }).catch(err=>{ console.log(err) }) I wander whether Web Codecs is supported HEVC decode in safari version 16.4 or I select a wrong codec string?

Hello there! I open a URL with SFSafariViewController inside my app. The URL that opens should ask for permission for the location information as the first step. It works seamlessly through the normal safari application. But when it is opened with SafariServices in the app, I cannot get the location information. When I press the aA icon in the upper right corner of SafariServices UI and open the website settings, although the location part is selected as "Ask", it does not ask for permission for location information and does not see the location.

I have created a chat application in React js, the input field is at the bottom of the screen. screen size has been fixed and all the CSS properties applied to it but there is an issue. when the input field got focused and the keyboard opens, we can drag the input to the upward and a blank area comes at the bottom. This makes very bad behavior also I have tested this thing on many other sites the same thing occurs, on sites are ChatGPT, OLX, daraz.pk, and many others. It appeals to the Safari team please fix this issue all browsers do not have this issue only Safari has and it makes very bad behavior. when the keyboard opens please don't extends the bottom height Thank you in advance

In the Release Notes of Safari 17 Beta it is mentioned that it is already available for certain macOS versions. Where do I find the link to macOS Ventura? https://developer.apple.com/documentation/safari-release-notes/safari-17-release-notes

Hi, In the WWDC23 session “What’s new in Safari extensions,” the presenter says: There are four ways to build Safari extensions: content blockers, share extensions, app extensions, and web extensions. Safari 17 continues to support all of these types, but the future of browser customization lies in web extensions. I take that to mean that content blocker extensions won’t be supported indefinitely, so I would like to get ahead of this by migrating my CSS content blocker to a web extension. However, I don’t see an API which allows for declarative CSS blocking in the same privacy-preserving way. I like the current way of building CSS content blockers because I can block page content without requesting any additional permissions. This provides a very smooth user experience, but I don’t see any way to do this using Safari web extensions. This method of blocking content is even referenced in the video, but only as a way to draw parallels to Declarative Net Request. Did I miss a change that allows me to build a privacy-preserving CSS content blocker in a web extension?

Hello, I am developing a firewall against http attacks at Layer7 layer. And no system (linux/windows/android/bsd/ios version < 16) works flawlessly, except for ios 16 version. İos 16 device screen record (error): veed . io/view/ab86584b-c054-4b70-8c73-6ae9782fabad) Old ios version test (no error): I am using a golang http service in addition to nginx in the opened url. And when I try to access this golang code directly (ios16) I get 503 error from a device. And all this http service does is to set a cookie on the client after getting the useragent and ip information. Code: What new feature in iOS 16 prevents my service from running? and how can i fix this. Note: In iOS 16, the situation is the same in all browsers, not just safari, I tried it on chrome. However, there is no problem when I try it on 15 and lower versions, which is a lower version. Thanks for your help in advance.

Hey, I am loading a link on my app using SFSafariViewController and that link asking camera and location permission. Camera permission pop-up showing and accessible but for location permission it is not doing anything even not showing location permission pop-up. I need to know is there any way to get location permission pop-up on SFSafariViewController.

I am currently utilizing local servers to facilitate interactions with local resources. However, I am exploring if there are solutions that would enable direct file access through the file:// protocol. I cannot access the developer tools and feature flags. Specifically, the option "Show features for web developers" seems to be deactivated. This is happening within the ASan WebKit build. I am running this using Tools/Scripts/run-safari. Any insights or potential solutions to these issues would be greatly appreciated.

You used to be able to create custom Widgets using Safari to view a section of a website. The "open in dashboard" option is no longer there. what is the process to do this now?

I'm curious if there is a limit to number of PWA push notifications that can be sent. We estimate roughly 10,000 pushes a day. If anyone has any insight it would be greatly appreciated.

Hi! I'm working on an iOS Safari extension that has a ServiceWorker. Lately we've noticed that this ServiceWorker seems to get killed seemingly at random, and there are no logs or crash reports to tell us what happened. I'm hypothesizing that iOS might be shutting down Safari ServiceWorkers when the ProcessInfo.thermalState approaches .serious. I have circumstantial evidence that our ServiceWorker tends to get killed more often at higher levels of thermalState but can't yet say conclusively that this is the case. I can't find any direct evidence of this on internet searches either. Is anyone able to shed light onto this topic? The specific symptoms are: ServiceWorker stops, and the menu entry for its console window no longer appears on macOS Safari. No crash logs via Xcode or Sentry, and no Console messages as far as we could tell (caveat: MobileSafari generates a LOT of messages! We might have missed it.) If attached via debugger, the native part of our extension just disappears and the debugger loses connection with no error message. ServiceWorker no longer works for the lifetime of the Safari process. Sometimes, when we kill Safari and restart, we can get the ServiceWorker back. This usually requires toggling our extension's "enabled" state in system settings. In some cases, even killing/relaunching Safari and toggling the system setting doesn't bring our ServiceWorker back. I'm hypothesizing right now that this happens when the thermal state is high. I've tried simulating a serious/critical thermal state in the Xcode Devices window, but couldn't repro the ServiceWorker problem. I don't know if that setting affects the whole system, though, or just our own apps. Help appreciated! Yuna

Hello, i try to send a Web Push Notification to my Safari Webbrowser and use the "http2" Module from Node.js Every other Browser is able to receive my messages. I got the message "BadJwtToken" but when i use the same Authorization Key with a HTTP/1.1 Request, i got a Message on Safari. Is there a Problem with the API when i use the HTTP/2 Protocol? Has anybody the same Problem? I send exactly the same Headers and as i said other Push APIs from Mozilla,Chrome and Microsoft e.t.c. are working with my HTTP2 Client.

Hi, this is my first time to write in Forum. My Problem is that, when I have a video in Safari for Mac recorded, Safari is splitting my record into three blobs. For Example Chrome doesn't. There is one record, one blob. Safari Version: 16.6 (18615.3.12.11.2) Does anyone know why Safari splits one Record/blob into three blobs? Thank you and have a great day.

Hello, safari consumes less CPU than Chrome, but it does not consume less RAM. When you access YouTube in Safari, especially when you skip 5 seconds while watching a video, the buttons are very inadequate compared to Chrome. The video and audio lag, the loading sign appears and the audio lag is very annoying. At the same time, when I log into Twitter, some videos do not play but remain loading. While browsing the web in Safari, the mouse sometimes remains stuck. While typing, the mouse becomes a line, but when I hover over something to click, it still remains as a line. There are such bugs. I like to use Safari, it is very useful, but I always prefer to stay in Chrome because of such errors. I try it every time Apple updates Safari, most bugs go away, but new ones come and unfortunately the Youtube problem is very bad. This problem only occurs on YouTube, not on Netflix and similar platforms. Browsing YouTube with Safari is very annoying. I hope you find a solution to these problems soon. Since I deal with CDN and Linux servers, the web is very important to me and I like the safari web tool part, but it is not an immersive view. It gives the impression that I shouldn't have opened it. I hope a new design language will be added to this design. Other than that, using safari is nice and I love how minimalist it is. Thank you, I wish you good work.

Hello, I try to develop extension for safari. I edited info.plist but I can't see my menu items. My Info.plist page <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>NSExtension</key> <dict> <key>NSExtensionPointIdentifier</key> <string>com.apple.Safari.web-extension</string> <key>NSExtensionPrincipalClass</key> <string>$(PRODUCT_MODULE_NAME).SafariWebExtensionHandler</string> </dict> <key>SFSafariContextMenu</key> <array> <dict> <key>Text</key> <string>Search for selected text in MyApplication.</string> <key>Command</key> <string>Search</string> </dict> <dict> <key>Text</key> <string>Add an entry for selected text in MyApplication.</string> <key>Command</key> <string>Add</string> </dict> </array> <key>SFSafariWebsiteAccess</key> <dict> <key>Level</key> <string>All</string> </dict> </dict> </plist>

I'm experiencing an issue with the Smart App Banner on my website, and I'm seeking assistance in resolving it. I have followed Apple's guidelines for implementing the Smart App Banner on my website, but it doesn't seem to work as expected when the app is not installed on the user's device. Here are the details of my setup: I have added the following meta tag to the root index file of my website: html <meta name="apple-itunes-app" content="app-id=, app-argument=myapp.com"> In the .well-known folder, I have created an apple-app-site-association file with content like this: { "applinks": { "apps": [], "details": [ { "appID": "HGU83XXXXX.com.myapp.app", "paths": ["*"] } ] } } The issue I'm encountering is that the Smart App Banner only displays with the "Open" button when the app is already installed on the user's device. However, when the app is not installed, the Smart App Banner doesn't appear to prompt users to download the app from the App Store. I would appreciate any insights or guidance on how to make the Smart App Banner work correctly, especially when the app is not installed on the user's device. Are there any specific steps or configurations I might be missing in this implementation? Thank you for your assistance!
