Howdy! On Safari, when using the column-count CSS property to split text into multiple columns, I've noticed that when applying a text-shadow, there is an unexpected whitespace created above all subsequent columns. I've put together a codepen demonstrating the issue and its reproducibility on Safari (using latest as of this posting: Version 17.6 (19618.3.11.11.5)) Codepen: https://codepen.io/cubepresser/pen/ExqvzjL Expected behavior: Actual: I tested this on the latest versions of Chrome, Firefox and Edge. This bug does not occur. Expected behavior is that there should not be an extra line added to the beginning of the second column, third column, etc. Here's some code if that codepen link doesn't work: HTML: <p id="example">0000000000111111111122222222223333333333</p> CSS: #example { font-family: monospace; max-width: 20ch; column-count: 2; column-gap: 0; word-break: break-all; line-break: anywhere; text-shadow: 0 0 4px black; }

I have a question. In the file located at /Library/Preferences/com.apple.networkd.plist, if the dict entry for enable_unified_http is set to true or if the value is missing, there is an issue where the video player does not run on MacOS Sequoia Safari 18.0. I found that setting it to false allows it to function properly. Could you explain what this setting does and whether it is possible to change this setting to false within the app?

Hi, I was implementing Apple pay button by checking active wallet and at least one cards active.

I'm building a share extension for my app when I noticed something weird. When I open a mobile URL (URLs with "m." like m.randomsite.org) on iOS using a browser (I'm using Safari & Chrome) and then try to share it, what will be share is the URL without the "m." (i.e. randomsite.org) This messes up with my app since I'm not getting the real URL that I'm viewing using the browser. I don't think it has something to do with my app since even selecting "Copy" when sharing will result in the altered URL too. So far this is happening on both iOS 17 and 18. Does someone know whether this is a bug from iOS or not? I don't think this is a Safari bug since I noticed the same thing on Chrome as well

Hello everyone, I am currently facing an issue with a Cordova-based app using WKWebView. In our app, we handle page navigation within the WebView. We’ve implemented a back button at the top of the page, which successfully triggers history.goBack() when clicked. However, we also want to support the native left edge pan gesture (swipe back) to trigger history.back(). The issue is that, while the swipe back gesture works most of the time, there are cases where instead of navigating to the immediate previous page, it behaves as if it’s going back to the first page (or initial page). This only occurs on iOS versions 17.5.1 and above. I’ve already set allowsBackForwardNavigationGestures to true, and the back button itself works perfectly. Has anyone experienced a similar issue, where the swipe back gesture sometimes skips pages and seems to return to the first page on iOS 17.5.1 or later? Any suggestions on how to fix or troubleshoot this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I've observed a discrepancy in cookie consent options between iOS 18.0 and 18.1 on some websites, such as www2.hm.com. On iOS 18.0, I see "Accept All Cookies" and "Only Required Cookies" options, whereas on iOS 18.1, the options change to "Accept All Cookies" and "Cookie Settings." I would like to understand if this behavior is related to differences in how websites detect the operating system version (iOS 18.0 vs. 18.1) or browser changes within the iOS update. Has anyone else experienced similar variations in cookie consent banners, and could this be tied to differences in the user agent or website A/B testing for different OS versions? Any insights or technical clarifications would be appreciated!

In Safari Web Extensions on iOS 18, declarativeNetRequest Rulesets and Dynamic Rules take over twice as long to apply -- which causes rulesets to often fail to apply before sites load. In a boilerplate Xcode project you can note the time difference toggling the OISD (https://oisd.nl) ruleset on iOS 17 and iOS 18 simulators. Additionally, if you force quit Safari and reopen to a site with ads blocked by OISD list (e.g. espn.com) the content will be blocked in that initial state on iOS 17, but not in iOS 18 due to the latency. Based on the boilerplate extension, this bug is impacting all Mobile Safari Extensions using declarativeNetRequest Rulesets and Dynamic Rules. We know several other extension developers dealing with this issue. Our team wrote detailed reproduction steps in our Feedback Assistant ticket: https://feedbackassistant.apple.com/feedback/15196130 but have received no responses. I would attach a screen recording here but it won't allow me.

So I know I can request for an email in the paymentRequest requiredShippingContactFields and could also access minimal information with onshippingcontactselected, but how can I actually get the full shippingContact AFTER a transaction. The documentation doesn't say what API call this is returned with or anything, so please help!

Hello everyone, in my website I need to give users the ability to choose a color via input type=“color”. I don't understand why it works fine on desktop (even on Safari for Mac) but doesn't open the color picker on iPhone. How can I solve this? Thank you, Andrea

Hi, we developed a web app based on the iPhone Safari browser and would like to apply to see if it is possible to use JavaScript capabilities to prevent the iPhone system from taking screenshots of web pages.

We currently are using private web security certificates for our URLs. Our users download, install, and enable a Root Certificate on their devices to reach our website (trusted). The web security certificates have expirations that are less than 13 months from expiration. Since the deployment of iOS 18, our users are now getting a "This Connection is not Private" warning in the web browser on both Mac and iOS devices. What change was implemented in iOS 18 that is causing this issue? Other than changing our web security certificates to Public ones, what solutions should be implemented to prevent this from occurring?

I'm working on a school project to build a webpage for Vision Pro users. I'm using Xcode to build this webpage because it has .reality files. This webpage only works on Safari because I took a spatial image with my Vision Pro, and it's .heic file type. I put the .png version below the .heic file that is supposed to have the spatial effect. I deployed this project on Vercel, please use Safari to check out the link: https://spatial-design-project.vercel.app There's another issue in this project, I downloaded the Cosmonaut .reality file on Apple Quick Look Gallery to test on my webpage. However, when I open it on Vision Pro, the file won't load, it says "Failed to load layers". Does it have something to do with the server for serving this file type? Should I use an actual web hosting company for this website? Here is my GitHub repo <div class="hero"> <div class="hero-text"> <h1>La Sal Peak</h1> <p>The Do-It-All Enduro Bike</p> </div> </div> <div class="hero2"> <div class="hero-text"> <h1>La Sal Peak</h1> <p>The Do-It-All Enduro Bike</p> </div> </div> .hero { position: relative; display: flex; align-items: flex-end; justify-content: flex-start; height: 100vh; background: url("assets/heroImage.heic") no-repeat center center/cover; color: white; } .hero2 { position: relative; display: flex; align-items: flex-end; justify-content: flex-start; height: 100vh; background: url("assets/hero.png") no-repeat center center/cover; color: white; }

This screen time is ruining the battery and always goes to dead while I re open. Any idea how to resolve it?

Hey, when I try to run my project on an iOS Simulator, I get the following message: JournalingSuggestions is not available when building for iOS Simulator. and Linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation) Steps to reproduce this behavior: Create a new Xcode project Add the Journaling Suggestions Capability Add the Journaling Suggestions Framework Under "Target > Build Phases > Link Binary with Libraries", select “optional“ for JournalingSuggestions.framework Under "Target > Build Settings > Other Linker Flags > Debug" select „Plus“ and add „iOS or iOS Simulator“ and paste this -Xlinker -weak_framework -Xlinker JournalingSuggestions into the editable field. Do the same for "Target > Build Settings > Other Linker Flags > Release" This tread is about the same problem, but is already checked as answered. That's why I'm creating this new tread. The last two bullet points are results from advice from the other thread. MacBook Air, M1, 2020, macOS: 14.6.1, Xcode: 16.0 Thanks for your help! Got the wrong keywords, trying to create a new thread...

On my M3 MacBook Pro 14'' laptop, when using Safari responsive design mode I cannot see any simulators when choosing "Open With Simulator". I am on the latest Sequoia 15.1 and Xcode version is 16.1. However when I successfully run a simulator from Xcode (Developer Tools -> Simulator) I can see the simulator running in the "Open With Simulator" dropdown but I cannot click it to run it with my safari desktop. I can never link my desktop safari app to a simulator. I feel I have read almost every how to blog but have no more options left to get this working. I've tried reinstalling Xcode and the iOS 18.1 environment on it, updating safari and anything else that might be out of date but still with no luck after much restarting programs and my machine. Is there another way to try and run a simulator from Safari?

I have been using the following python library to generate apple map snapshots. has worked fine until about ~12 hours ago - now all I'm getting is "bad request" for any snapshot with overlays. if it's just a snapshot with a defined center and no polyline overlays, it still works. perhaps something has changed with the api's way of parsing percent encoded parameters? it's super irritating that there's no changelog or source code to view. what the heck??? https://pypi.org/project/mapsnap/
