We have written a PAC script that blocklists certain domains and whitelists others. We went to Settings > Network > Wi-Fi (the network we are using), then clicked on Details, and under Proxies, we added the PAC file URL in the Automatic Proxy Configuration section.
We tried hosting the PAC file both on localhost and on a separate HTTP server.
After saving the settings, we tested several URLs. The blocking and allowing behavior works correctly in all browsers except Safari.
Below is the PAC script we are using for your reference.
The script works as expected in browsers other than Safari.
This is how the PAC script URL looks:
http://localhost:31290/proxy.pac
function FindProxyForURL(url, host) {
var blacklist = new Set(["facebook.com", "deepseek.com"]);
var b_list = [...blacklist];
for (let i = 0; i < b_list.length; i++) {
let ele = b_list[i] + "*";
if (shExpMatch(host, ele) || shExpMatch(url, ele)) {
return "PROXY localhost:8086";
}
}
if (isIPBlocked(whitelist_subnet, hostIP)) {
return "PROXY localhost:8087";
}
if (isIPBlocked(blacklist_subnet, hostIP)) {
return "PROXY localhost:8086";
}
return "PROXY localhost:8080";
}

Our app is an enterprise app via MDM.
We are experiencing an issue in iPadOS 18.4 when loading an internal HTTPS server via WKWebView in a hybrid iOS app.
Our server uses a self-signed certificate but lacks the digitalSignature usage in its Key Usage extension. (Currently we have no chance to change the server's certificate)
We override webView:didReceiveAuthenticationChallenge:completionHandler: to trust the certificate:
completionHandler(NSURLSessionAuthChallengeUseCredential, credential);
This "completionHandler" works in previous 18.3.2 , but not work in 18.4. May I know is there any changes in 18.4 for the https certification? Why this delegate not work? What we can do to ignore this ssl error and get connection?
Thanks in advance, look forward for your reply.
While implementing Apple Maps into our web application, I have a scenario where I want to be able to drag and move some of my custom annotations around. While that is working, when "picking up" the annotation before dragging it, there is an animation which I believe is to represent the human interaction of picking up a pin from a map, I would like to cancel that animation and thought that would be possible by calling preventDefault() in the emitted long-press event, which the documentation states that annotations should emit if they are draggable. The thing is that I don't get this event to emit when long pressing an annotation. So I believe that I have found a bug.
It's in this paragraph in the documentation https://developer.apple.com/documentation/mapkitjs/handling-map-events#Respond-to-map-interaction-events
A long press occurs on the map outside an annotation. A long press may be the beginning of a panning or pinching gesture on the map. You can prevent the gesture from starting by calling the preventDefault() method of the event. Annotations need to be draggable to dispatch long-press events.
In anybody else experiencing this or do you see any clear fix for this? Maybe there is another way to cancel that "picking up the annotation for dragging" animation. I have seemed to try anything else.
Hello, ive been dealing with this glitch all year that hasnt happened last year. When I watch a video on public safari and then it exit the video it immediately takes me to the private tab but when I go on the private tab to watch videos and exit out it takes me back to the website just like normal. Its a pretty annoying bug and I watch all my videos in the private tab because of it

In the safari or chrome app, when I want to change tabs, I can go into a grid view of the tabs. In this grid, each tab shows the content of the page. When I click on one of the tabs, the content of the page expands to fill the entire screen (and shrinks when I go back to grid).
I'm creating my own browser and I'm trying to replicate this same functionality. I'm using WebKit on XCode 16.4, iOS 18. However, I'm unable to figure out how Chrome and Safari did this.
First, I thought that I could take a snapshot of the page and then use that image as the thumbnail. However, very often the image is of the wrong size - likely due to the webview shrinking for the animation.
Making the animation wait until the image is made available did help in making it more consistent. The above errors happen whenever I spam the new tab and then click the tab grid button. It only is misaligned on the very last new tab. Please help on this.
// OpenedTab.swift
Button(action: {
tab.getThumbnail {
tabManager.selectedTab = nil
}
}) {
ZStack {
Image(systemName: "square")
.resizable()
.frame(width: 25, height: 25)
Text(tabManager.tabs.count.description)
.font(.subheadline)
}
}
// TabState.swift
func getThumbnail(completionHandler: (() -> Void)? = nil) {
webView.takeSnapshot(with: nil) { img, err in
if let err = err {
print("Snapshot err: \(err)")
} else {
self.thumbnail = img
completionHandler?()
}
}
}
Also, something I'm noticing is that for some reason, the image is slightly bigger than the header of the tab card. It also happens in the progress view if the thumbnail isn't available. The images above show it too.
I have no clue why this is happening and I would love advice on this too.
struct TabCardView: View {
@StateObject var manager = TabManager.shared
@ObservedObject var tab: TabState
var namespace: Namespace.ID
@State var width: CGFloat = 0
var body: some View {
GeometryReader { geo in
VStack(spacing: 0) {
HStack(spacing: 1) {
Text(tab.title ?? tab.url.host() ?? "")
.font(.caption2)
.padding(.horizontal, 4)
.padding(.vertical, 10)
Button(action: {
manager.close(tab: tab)
}) {
Image(systemName: "multiply")
}
}
.frame(height: 40)
.frame(width: geo.size.width)
// .padding(.horizontal, 7)
.background(.tertiary)
.matchedGeometryEffect(id: tab.id.uuidString + "title", in: namespace)
ZStack {
if let thumbnail = tab.thumbnail {
Image(uiImage: thumbnail)
.resizable()
.aspectRatio(contentMode: .fill)
.frame(width: geo.size.width, height: 160, alignment: .top)
.clipped()
} else {
Color.black.brightness(0.8)
ProgressView()
}
}
.frame(width: geo.size.width, height: 160)
.matchedGeometryEffect(id: tab.id.uuidString + "container", in: namespace)
}
.frame(width: geo.size.width)
}
.frame(height: 200)
.clipShape(RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 16))
.shadow(radius: 2)
.padding(.all, 7)
.overlay(
RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 20)
.stroke(.blue, lineWidth: manager.previousTab?.id == tab.id ? 5 : 0)
)
.shadow(radius: 1)
}
}
What happens if Safari is uninstalled or disabled on iOS?
Will SFafariviewcontroller still work?
Kind regards
Hello,
When I view my website (lasaluade) on iphone or ipad the top of my page bodies are cut off (3-4 first lines). However, on PC, Mac or Android everything is OK (see screenshots).
For the record, I built this site with Wordpress and Divi Builder, and I've the same result on Safari and Chrome.
Not being a developer, I don't know where to look (I just think it's iOS-related).
Have you already had this problem? Do you have any ideas?
Thanks for your help!

I built a web application using the Apple Pay on the Web Interactive Demo with the Payment Request API, but encountered a few issues:
The initiated web Apple Pay interface shows a spinning circle at the bottom and cannot proceed with payment(Bottom display:正在处理). What could be causing this?
How to set up sandbox testing for payments?
How to asynchronously and synchronously retrieve payment results (backend code to fetch payment results)? The demo only shows frontend code using await response.complete("success"); for retrieving payment results

I am encountering an issue where we are unable to run or launch Safari Driver in our automation tests using macOS. When attempting to run safaridriver -p 8888 from the terminal, we receive the following error message:
ERROR: safaridriver could not launch because it is not configured correctly or you need to authenticate. Re-run safaridriver(1) and pass the '--enable' flag to configure and/or authenticate.
For more information, consult the safaridriver(1) man page.
Despite running sudo safaridriver --enable as an administrator (even as root), the issue persists.
I’ve searched through various online forums and GitHub repositories but couldn’t find a working solution. Some references are:
Apple Developer Forum Thread: https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/762321
GitHub Issue: https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/issues/11381
I have a UI application built with the Vue framework, using Vuetify for the UI components. There's a div with the class v-application--wrap, which is provided by Vuetify. This class internally includes the following style rule.
.v-application--wrap {
backface-visibility: hidden;
display: flex;
flex: 1 1 auto;
flex-direction: column;
max-width: 100%;
min-height: 100vh;
position: relative;
}
The pages were rendering correctly up to version 18.3, but after upgrading to version 18.4, we encountered layout issues related to height. Upon investigation, we discovered that the min-height property was no longer being interpreted or applied correctly. Replacing min-height with height resolved the issue, and the pages began loading as expected.
Any insights into why this behavior is occurring would be greatly appreciated.
Hi Apple Devs & WebKit Team,
We operate https://excnum.com — a personal website currently under reconstruction. It's HTTPS-secure, hosted on a clean VPS, and now features a simple placeholder page with no active forms, scripts, or external redirects.
However, Safari on both iOS and macOS is flagging it as a “deceptive website”, blocking all access. This warning appears even though:
The site uses a valid SSL certificate via Cloudflare
There are no redirects, tracking scripts, or dynamic code
We serve a static landing page (“under maintenance”) with zero interaction
No malware, phishing, or obfuscation exists — verified with multiple tools
A review request has already been submitted at: https://websitereview.apple.com
We believe the site may have been blacklisted previously under past ownership or prior configurations. It has since been completely restructured and cleared, but the Safari warning persists.
This false flag is harming visibility and trust for an otherwise neutral website.
Any advice on how to expedite re-evaluation or request a manual delisting from the deceptive site list would be much appreciated.
Thank you!

Hi folks!! Anyone here experienced issues with video not showing up in webview?
I have a simple index.html with a video tag but its doesn't load why?
iOS 18.4 introduces the new WKWebExtension API to support extensions in WKWebView. However, for extensions that have migrated to Manifest V3 and use an extension service worker as the background script, it's currently not possible to inspect them through Safari.
This is only thing I can see, I don't know how to inspect the details of the "background.js"
I'm wondering—has this changed? Is it now possible to inspect extension service workers?
In our web application some functionalities will allow user to upload multiple images (More than 25 images) in a single page
It is working find in all OS and browsers except iOS
When user try to upload images directly from camera there will be some overlaps, duplication, missing etc.
This is happening in both Safari and Chrome, we had a thorough check in our application and found every thing is working fine from our end
You can reproduce the issue by creating a web page which accept more than 50 images (we tried the same in ASP MVC Core & PHP) and showing the images in order
access the page through your iPhone using Safari or Chrome
Try to upload images directly from your camera, try sequential images (Image of a stop watch, or some thing like that) so that you can easily identify the order of files uploaded
and check the listing page of uploaded image (Try these steps multiple times)
You can find some images are duplicated and some are missing
Hey everyone,
After installing iOS 26 beta, I started noticing unexpected behavior in our input event handlers.
Specifically, when users type into an field, event.target.value is always an empty string — but only when the JS file is loaded from a specific domain (e.g., t1.daumcdn.net). The exact same code works perfectly when hosted on other domains like t2.daumcdn.net or search1.daumcdn.net.
👉 I created a demo here:
🔗 https://codepen.io/bzasklcu-the-sans/pen/rNXogxL
The scripts loaded from each domain are 100% identical (apart from the top-level selector). Before iOS 26 beta, this worked fine.
I suspect this is related to ITP or some new cross-origin behavior in Safari, but I’d love to know if anyone else is running into this — or if someone knows a workaround.
Thanks!
Hello from Leipzig, Germany!
I noticed that when vertically scrolling in Safari 26 on my Mac, the content of the website I am currently working on is visible in the tab and URL bar with a liquid glass effect. I then looked at various other websites. Some websites have an opaque top bar. Some websites have a transparent top bar where content is visible when scrolling. On the Apple website, the top bar is opaque in light mode but transparent in dark mode. Unfortunately, I can't find a way to control this behavior. Has anyone found out more about this?
Hello all,
I'm trying to retrieve geolocation data on the web, but I'm having trouble with the altitude value, which seems to differ from what I get on Android.
When using navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition in Safari, is the altitude value based on mean sea level, or is it ellipsoidal altitude based on the WGS84 ellipsoid?
altitude (WebKit JS): https://developer.apple.com/documentation/webkitjs/coordinates/1631861-altitude
altitude (Core Location): https://developer.apple.com/documentation/corelocation/cllocation/altitude
ellipsoidalAltitude (Core Location): https://developer.apple.com/documentation/corelocation/cllocation/ellipsoidalaltitude
If anyone has any insight into this topic I would greatly appreciate it!
We're embedding the Power BI reports into our portal by using JS library. While testing them, we found that mobile layout of the reports don't work as we expect on iOS devices (tested in Chrome and Safari). There are two principals issues: 1) the site is automatically refreshed when the users filter the data (we reduced them to lower expression) and 2) the site also crashes after a while using the dashboard by applying different filters.
