Apple releases Safari 16 for macOS Monterey and Big Sur

The Safari 16 update is now available for macOS Monterey and Big Sur users. Let's take a look at the new version of the web browser.

What's new in Apple Safari 16 for macOS

I mentioned a few features that were introduced in Safari 16, when the first Technology Preview of the browser was released. Apple states that it has improved the performance of the browser, this includes tweaks to various animations, accessibility options, security, etc in WebKit . It also adds support for Web Inspector extensions.

Tab Groups Start Pages

Safari 16 lets you add Tab Group Start Pages, aka new tab pages, per group. To add shortcuts, click the new tab button. Drag and drop some websites from your bookmarks to the Tab Group Favorites section. This serves as your Tab Group's Start Page.

You can hide the shortcuts by clicking the button in the bottom right corner and disabling the option that says "Tab Group Favorites". There is another way to access your frequently visited websites. Right-click on a tab in a Tab Group, and pin it to prevent it from being closed.

Safari 16 supports 2 view modes for Tab Groups: a list view, and an overview. To view a list of your tabs, right-click on the Tab Group's name in the sidebar, and select "Show Tabs in Sidebar".

The list can be collapsed in similar fashion by clicking "Hide Tabs in Sidebar".

The Show Tab Overview option in the sidebar's context menu switches to a thumbnail view. You can also toggle this mode by clicking the dual pane button in the top right corner of Safari's window.

You can customize the appearance of the current Tab Group from the bottom-right menu in the Start Page. Select the background image option, and pick an image that you would like to use as the wallpaper. You may set a different background images for each Tab Group.

As for UI Changes, some shortcuts in the sidebar have been moved to the bottom, this includes Bookmarks, Reading List, Shared with You, and iCloud Tabs. The Safari 16 update fixes 4 security issues in the browser, you can read about them on Apple's support portal .

Settings sync across devices

Safari 16 will sync the settings that you have set for websites across your other devices. e.g. if you blocked notifications, location access, etc. So you don't have to choose the options every time you access the website on one of your Apple devices.

Password Editing

The password manager in Safari 16 now supports the editing of strong passwords in order to comply with a website's requirements. When you sign up for an account on a website and click the Passwords button, Safari will generate a password for you.

Click the words "Strong Password" to bring up the Passwords panel into view. Select the "Other Options" button, and click the "Edit Strong Password" option to customize the password.

AVIF format

Safari 16 on iOS introduces support for the AVIF format for still images. It is an alternative to PNG, JPEG, GIF, WebP and supports lossless and lossy compression, multiple color spaces, etc. AVIF support and Passkeys are not yet available in Safari 16 for Mac and iPad, Apple says that it will add these features to the browser when macOS Ventura and iPadOS are released in October.

Open the Apple menu on your Mac, and head to About this Mac > and check for Software Update to install Safari 16 on your machine. The latest version is available alongside the macOS 12.6 update that was released yesterday.

“I wonder why Microsoft is unable to release the same quality software as Apple does.”?

How many hardware configurations does Apple officially support? How many hardware configurations does Microsoft officially support? Which company designs, makes, sells etc… the hardware that Apple supports?

Fu<king stupid question.

“How many hardware configurations does Apple officially support? How many hardware configurations does Microsoft officially support?”

Irrelevant. The UI/UX team and the kernel/hardware team have nothing in common.

You have to be so nasty? State your points but leave the insults out.

AVIF is nice (and better than WebP!) but the real game changer will be JPEG XL.

Safari 16 arrives with support for password replacement passkeys

Apple has released Safari 16 as part of iOS 16, and also delivered as an update for macOS Monterey and Big Sur. Headline new features include Passkeys, which replace passwords with cryptographic key pairs, and CSS container queries, which enable layout based on the size of the current container rather than that of the entire viewport.

Passkeys, claims Apple web developer evangelist Jen Simmons, deliver a “profound increase in security.” They are based on the WebAuthn standard and each key pair is unique to the particular user and the application or web site. The client generates the keypair, the public key is stored on the server, and the private key which is stored (in the case of Apple devices) in the company’s iCloud Keychain, which is protected by two-factor authentication. From the user’s perspective, login is typically via biometrics such as the Touch ID fingerprint sensor or Face ID. There is also an option to use hardware security devices.

Safari dominates within the Apple ecosystem, but has a small market share overall. Is this any use to developers beyond Apple? The Safari implementation and integration with Keychain is Apple specific, but It is based on the FIDO standard, and there is an Apple plug-in for Chrome on Windows which adds support for the Keychain support. Developers can also offer old-style passwords as an option alongside passkeys. Passkeys are not inherently Apple-specific and in May this year Apple, Google and Microsoft made joint statements on the subject. Yubico, which makes hardware security keys, argues that because private keys in the Passkey system are copyable, they offer only “roughly the same security as ‘sign-in with Google/Apple,’ plus an additional key sync password.” If there is wide adoption, though, it will still be a significant step up from passwords which are all too often insecurely stored or transmitted, and can be guessed or phished.

There is more in Safari 16, including AVIF image and animated image support, text-align-last CSS properties for setting different text alignment for the last line in a paragraph, CSS subgrids, a new Flexbox inspector in the developer tools, cross-tab background workers called Shared Workers, and CSS Offset Path or Motion Path animation. 

There is also Container Queries, where Safari was ahead of its rivals, but perhaps not by coincidence the feature has also just shipped in Google Chrome 105. They are not yet supported in Firefox though and despite the high usefulness of the feature, developers may want to wait for wider adoption or rely on a polyfill.

WebKit Features in Safari 16 Beta">News from WWDC22: WebKit Features in Safari 16 Beta

Jun 6, 2022

by Jen Simmons

Web Inspector Extensions

Container queries, web push for macos, flexbox inspector, accessibility improvements, animation improvements, overscroll behavior, shared worker.

WebKit has had a big year, with over 162 new features and improvements shipping in WebKit browsers — including Safari 15.2 , Safari 15.4 , and Safari 15.5 . Features from earlier this year include dialog element , lazy loading, inert, :has() pseudo-class, new viewport units, Cascade Layers, focus visible , accent color, appearance, font palettes for color fonts, BroadcastChannel, Web Locks API, File System Access API , enhancements to WebAssembly, support for Display-P3 in canvas , additions to COOP and COEP, improved CSS autocompletion and new CSS variable tooling in Web Inspector, and much, much more.

We’re excited to announce today the major web technologies shipping in Safari 16 beta.

You can try out Safari 16 on macOS Monterey or macOS Big Sur by downloading the Safari 16.0 public beta . You will need to sign in using a free Apple ID to download. Note that installing Safari 16 beta will replace your existing Safari install with no way to revert to an earlier version.

Or, if you’d like, you can test Safari 16 by installing the public beta of macOS Ventura, iOS 16, or iPadOS 16.

Safari 16 brings support for Web Inspector Extensions, so you can enhance Safari’s built-in browser developer tools. This can be especially helpful when using powerful third-party frameworks and services — perhaps your team uses React, Angular, Vue, or Ember; or maybe a popular test suite or another developer service. Now with Safari Web Inspector Extensions, you’ll be able install developer tools extensions from those frameworks and services to make your job developing with them faster and easier. Look for such extensions in the App Store this fall.

Extensions for popular third-party frameworks and services aren’t the only exciting use of Web Inspector Extensions. Often, a small enhancement to developer tools can make a huge difference in workflow. You might be the best person to imagine and create such an extension. Web extensions are made from HTML, CSS, and JS — a perfect project for web developers. To learn the basics of building a Safari Web Extension , either from a quick-start template or by converting an existing extension to work with Safari, along with how to package it for the App Store, watch the Tech Talk Build and deploy Safari Extensions .

Safari Web Inspector Extensions are made with the same JavaScript APIs as the developer tools extensions in other browsers. This makes it possible for the creators of your favorite developer tools extensions to easily port them to Safari .

Web Inspector Extensions join other improvements to Safari Web Extensions, including the ability to sync which extensions are enabled across iOS, iPadOS, and macOS.

After years of collaboration by engineers working on various browsers to figure out whether or not they would even be possible, Container Queries are finally here. Similar to Media Queries, Container Queries allow you to adjust the layout or styling of a particular item on your web page based on the size of its container rather than the size of the viewport. They’ll be an invaluable tool for creating reusable components in a design system.

Safari 16 supports size queries and container query units . “Size queries” are what web developers imagine when they talk about container queries — the opportunity to write CSS that only applies if a container is a certain size. Other ideas for style queries are also being discussed as part of Container Queries as something for the future.

Container query units are similar to viewport units, but they specify a length relative to the dimensions of a query container instead of the viewport.

Web Push is coming to Safari 16 on macOS Ventura. This lets you remotely send notifications to users of your websites and web apps — and deliver those notifications even when Safari isn’t running. It uses the same combination of web standards you may be familiar with from other browsers: Push API and Notifications API , along with Service Worker .

Users opt into notifications by first indicating interest through a user gesture — such as clicking a button. Then, they’ll be prompted to give permission for your site or app to send notifications. Users will be able to view and manage notifications in Notifications Center, and customize styles and turn notifications off per website in Notifications Settings.

If you’ve already implemented Web Push for your web app or website using industry best practices, it will automatically work in Safari. Although, if you’ve excluded Safari through browser detection, you’ll need to switch to feature detection to get it working.

Web Push in Safari uses the same Apple Push Notification service that powers native push on all Macs and iOS devices. If you tightly manage push endpoints on your server, be sure you allow URLs from any subdomain of push.apple.com. You do not need to be an Apple Developer Program member.

And look for Web Push for iOS and iPadOS in 2023.

CSS Grid shipped over five years ago, in March 2017, revolutionizing what’s possible in layout design on the web. Subgrid takes Grid to another level, providing an easy way to put grandchildren of a grid container on that grid. It makes it possible to line up items across complex layouts without being constrained by the HTML structure. And Safari’s Grid Inspector lets you turn on the overlays for as many grids as you want — which is especially helpful when coding subgrid.

Following last year’s Grid Inspector , Safari 16 adds a Flexbox Inspector. It pairs perfectly with the addition of the Alignment Editor in Safari 15.4.

Overlays for Flexbox containers make it easier to visualize the effects your CSS has on Flexbox containers. The new overlay helps you visually distinguish between free space and gaps. It also shows the bounds of items revealing how they are distributed both on the main axis and cross axis of your Flexbox containers. The toggle-able “Order Numbers” option helps show the layout order of elements in the container, which can be helpful when using the order CSS property for items. And, just like our overlays for Grid last year, you can turn on as many Flexbox overlays as you need, without impacting performance.

Safari 16 introduces a re-architecture of WebKit’s accessibility support on macOS that delivers improved performance and increased responsiveness. This change allows WebKit to service more accessibility requests from clients like VoiceOver in less time than before. On some complex webpages, we’ve measured twice the number of accessibility requests served in twenty-five percent less time.

This release also greatly improves accessibility support for elements with display:contents by ensuring they are properly represented in the accessibility tree.

CSS Offset Path (also known as Motion Path) provides web developers a way to animate things along a custom path of any shape. The offset-path property let’s you define a geometrical path along which to animate. The offset-anchor , offset-distance , offset-position , and offset-rotate properties give you additional abilities to refine the exact movement of the object being animated. While the offset property acts as a shorthand for combining these properties.

With Safari 16, you can now animate a CSS Grid. That means changes in the size of rows and/or columns can be animated, opening up a whole new set of possibilities for movement on a page.

Safari 16 also adds support for composite operations, resolving how an element’s animation impacts its underlying property values. And it adds support for discrete animation to thirty-nine CSS properties — see the full list in the Safari Technology Preview 143 release notes .

CSS Overscroll Behavior determines what happens when a user scrolls and reaches the boundary of a scrolling area. It’s useful when you want to stop scroll chaining — when a user scrolls inside a box and hits the end, you now have control over stopping or allowing scrolling on the rest of the page.

Just when you thought there weren’t enough different kinds of workers, there’s a new type of worker in Safari — Shared Worker . Like Service Worker, a Shared Worker runs JavaScript in the background, but its lifetime is slightly different. Your Shared Worker runs as long as the user has any tab open to your domain, and all the tabs open to the same domain can share the same Shared Worker. So, if you want to do something like have one WebSocket connection open to a server that communicates on behalf of multiple tabs, try out Shared Worker.

There’s much more, including fixes and improvements to form controls as well as support for <form>.requestSubmit() and the showPicker() method for HTML input elements. Plus support for Shadow Realms, as well as support for the worker-src Content Security Policy directive.

To learn more about what’s in Safari 16 for web developers, including a list of bug fixes, read the Safari 16 beta release notes .

We love hearing from you. Send a tweet to @webkit , @jensimmons , or @jonathandavis to share your thoughts on this release. What technology from Safari 16 are you most excited about? What features or fixes do you want to see next? If you run into any issues, we welcome your feedback on Safari UI, or your WebKit bug report about web technology or Web Inspector. Filing issues really does make a difference.
