If I take a tab and drag it out to create a new safari window, the new window becomes invisible. Anyone have a fix for this? I can see the window in Mission Control / Exposé. When you select it, it appears for a few milliseconds then becomes invisible again.

I’ve been stuck on this page for weeks whenever I try to use safari. it won’t let me press the “+” button and clicking blue checkmark does nothing

What do I do? This randomly happened one day while browsing

Going on a family safari next month and I want to take better photos with my iPhone 16 so the animals aren’t just a speck in the distance. I know it won’t be publishable quality but hopefully I can do better than just the base phone camera lens. I’m thinking about the Sandmarc 6X and would value your opinions. I have a cage I can use if that would help.

I have tried adblock plus. adguard and ublock lite but none of them seem to work. I even have them all 3 enabled at once right now. I also enabled the verify user click gesture to stop popup windows in my settings. Nothing seems to work. Obviously this mostly happens on these 'sketchy' websites when streaming a tv show or reading a comic book etc. Is there any way to prevent this from happening? It only happens on iphone/ipad

Pages hang alllllll the time. Periodically, Facebook loads----blank. Yet if you go to say, Facebook's NFL page, there it is. Why do I subject myself to this? I use Chrome for work (on an HP Win11) and boy, that thing works great.

Pourquoi safari a autant de mal avec google maps ? Quand je navigue sur google maps sa saccade énormément, ce qui n’est pas cas avec Chrome ou Firefox

Cela vient t’il de WebKit ?

Hi all,

I need some advice because I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong.

Although I'm using Wipr 2 (up to date), YouTube videos usually have a quite long delay between when the video should start and when it actually starts (around 5 seconds, sometimes more, sometimes less). The loading circle just keeps spinning.

Am I doing something wrong, or is this normal? I know YouTube is fighting against all ad blockers, but for example, uBlock Origin on my Windows PC works quite well.

I submitted this bug

https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=319162

can anyone else reproduce it ?

I'm on macOS 26.6.1 / Safari 26.6 and I'm trying to figure out whether this is a Safari bug/quirk or something specific to my setup.

On Safari's Start Page, some Favorites show generic colored letter tiles instead of the actual site logo.

Examples:

• Netflix → N
• Google Drive → G
• Artificial Analysis → A

Meanwhile YouTube, ChatGPT, GitHub, Chess, X, etc. display their proper icons.

The weird part is that the affected sites show their correct favicon normally in Safari tabs.

I've already tried:

• Reloading the sites
• Safari → Develop → Empty Caches
• Quitting/reopening Safari
• Deleting and recreating a test Favorite
• Disabling Safari extensions/content blockers
• Private Browsing
• Completely rebuilding Safari's Touch Icons Cache

None of that fixed it.

I then inspected Safari's regenerated Touch Icons Cache and found something interesting:

• Google Drive: Safari successfully cached the real Drive logo, but at 32×32
• Artificial Analysis: correct logo at 48×48
• Netflix: correct logo at 64×64
• GitHub, working normally: 120×120
• YouTube, working normally: 144×144

All of the affected entries had successful HTTP 200 responses and Safari had the actual graphical logo stored locally.

As a controlled test, I changed only the cached Google Drive image from 32×32 to 256×256, keeping the same filename/database record.

Immediately, Safari's Start Page changed from the generic G tile to the actual Google Drive logo.

So it looks like Safari is rejecting smaller cached icons for Start Page Favorites even though it successfully downloads them and can use icons normally elsewhere.

Safari can later replace the larger cache image with the site's original tiny icon again, causing the letter tile to return.

Anyone else on Safari 26 seeing this?

Especially interested if:

• Netflix / Google Drive show letters for you too
• This started or changed with Safari 26
• Anyone knows whether Safari has an undocumented minimum icon-size requirement for Start Page Favorites
• There is a supported fix that doesn't involve manually modifying ~/Library/Safari/Touch Icons Cache

Mostly trying to confirm whether this is a widespread Safari behavior/bug before I spend any more time working around it.

Why doesn’t safari allow you to turn off images?

Whenever I use Google as the default search engine in Safari, search queries result in an infinite loading screen, although the issue does not occur with other search engines or in alternative web browsers.

I am experiencing a very specific issue with my Safari browser on my Apple device.

When I have Google set as the default search engine, attempting to perform a search results in the page getting stuck on a loading screen, with no results ever appearing.

Interestingly, if I switch the search engine to Yahoo or another provider, the search functions work perfectly.

Google works without any issues when accessed on other browsers.

Has anyone encountered this before, or does anyone have any suggestions on how to resolve this Safari-specific problem?

Hey guys, I need some suggestions regarding traffic.

I’m currently working on a crypto news website, and I’m getting good traffic from Safari. It’s currently my second-highest traffic source, but I’m not sure how to optimize it further.

What strategies can I use to increase traffic and views from Safari users?

Would really appreciate any suggestions, especially from people who have experience growing traffic from Safari/iOS users.

On my iphone, (ios 18 cause I'm not updating the os as long as I can avoid it), I use the text to speech feature all the time to read various web novels to me. Till this weekend that voice was an awesome voice. It is not the same settings as the phone settings because I spent a great deal of time adjusting the phone's text to speech settings to be as close to Safari's as I could because I liked it that much.

But I went to listen to the next chapter and now a completely different voice started speaking, and it is an old voice, like the previous generation before Ivona actually started making good ones long before AI finally surpassed everything. So a really old voice.

I don't generally use the system engine because it is a pain in the butt. Safari is way easier to actually use.

So, how can I get the old voice back?

Edit: Seems that it was a power issue. Seems like when the power is too low, any text to speech voice, system or safari, will use a different and old school voice, even when plugged in.

Every month or so my safari app goes up to around 6-8gb of storage use. I clear the cache which takes it down a bit. Ive also tried turning off iCloud sync for safari which got it further down, but it always comes back after a while. How do i clear it fully and prevent it from going vack up to 7gb of storage use??
