Hello, I'm not able to get the webauthn attestation statement using the option (attestation.direct) on Safari. The answer I get is a fmt of none and a aaguid of zeros. The same code works on Chrome and I was able to get a none zero aaguid and a packed fmt attestation. Can you explain why this does not work on Safari ? Thank you.

I'm using the new iOS 26 WebPage/WebView for SwiftUI in a NavigationStack. The initial load works as expected, but when loading items from the back/forward lists, the content jumps beneath the navigation bar: struct WebPageTestView: View { var webPage = WebPage() var body: some View { NavigationStack { WebView(webPage) .toolbar { Button("Back") { if let backItem = webPage.backForwardList.backList.last { webPage.load(backItem) } } Button("Forward") { if let forwardItem = webPage.backForwardList.forwardList.first { webPage.load(forwardItem) } } } } .task { webPage.isInspectable = true webPage.load(URL(string: "https://domchristie.co.uk/")) } } } I have run this on the iOS 26.0 and 26.1 Simulators and get the same issue. The demo website does not use any JavaScript. I was able to replicate this behaviour using a wrapped WKWebView and calling the .ignoresSafeArea(.all) modifier.

On my native app, will open a wkWebview to display some content. And it will crash on iOS26: *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'CALayerInvalidGeometry', reason: 'CALayer position contains NaN: [nan 103.667].

As with the adoption of MV3 standards among all major browser vendors that allow browser extensions at the client-side, I understand that this is the same with Safari as well, as mentioned here (https://www.wwdcnotes.com/notes/wwdc22/10099/). However, as with Firefox, browsers may choose to adopt them incompletely and with few changes. I had a few questions regarding how Safari views this transition and what would be the next steps from here. Thus, it would be really great if the browser team could provide your insights on any or all of the following points: Would Safari adopt the exact standards proposed by the Chromium ecosystem such as with functionalities like header-based modifications in the coming days.  What would be the general timeline be for this in general?  Does this also translate to the fact that existing standards with MV2 standards would not be allowed to operate any further, as with the timeline with Chromium? Regards

I use WKWebView to display a webpage that requires authentication through an authentication provider. This works as expected, but when I close and reopen the app, I have to reauthenticate. However, if I open the same page in Safari, I only have to authenticate once. If I close Safari and reopen it, the page displays without prompting me to authenticate again. I see some cookies stored in httpCookieStore, so I assume that storing cookies works. Does anyone have an idea why authentication is not persistent between app launches? Thanks in advance. Best regards, Marc

Is this code invalid on a phone running xcode16 iOS18? Class cls = NSClassFromString(@"WKBrowsingContextController"); SEL sel = NSSelectorFromString(@"registerSchemeForCustomProtocol:"); if ([(id)cls respondsToSelector:sel]) { [(id)cls performSelector:sel withObject:@"http"]; [(id)cls performSelector:sel withObject:@"https"]; } }

The application I'm currently working on uses WebKit. Based on the crash analytics, we have noticed that some of our users are experiencing an unusual behavior in the app's WebKit view with macOS 15.3.2. These errors are reported for this version of the OS. The error in the crash log is a SIGABRT error, but there is no relevant information available to address it. In some crash logs, we found this error: "NSInternalInconsistencyException: Returned WKWebView was not created with the given configuration" but there is not any particular way to address it. Is there a way to identify the cause of this error? Alternatively, has anyone encountered this issue and found a solution?

Hi everyone, I’m encountering a critical reliability issue with message passing in my Safari Web Extension on iOS 18.4.1 and iOS 18.5. In my extension, I’m using the standard messaging API. The background script sends a message to the content script using browser.tabs.sendMessage(...), and the content script registers a listener via: browser.runtime.onMessage.addListener(handler); This setup has been working reliably in all prior versions of iOS. However, after updating to iOS 18.4.1 and 18.5, I’ve noticed the following behavior: ✅ The content script is successfully injected, and onMessage.addListener is registered (I see logging confirming this). ✅ The background script sends the message using the correct tabId (also confirmed via logs). ❌ The content script’s onMessage listener is not consistently triggered. ⚠️ This issue is intermittent, sometimes the message is received, sometimes it is silently dropped. ❌ No exceptions or errors are thrown in either script, the message appears to be sent, but not picked up from the content script message listener.

Background On iOS 18.4 beta, setting a content inset on a WKWebView causes touch events inside the web view to be offset by the content inset amount. In other words, if the web view has a top content inset of 75 points, I must tap 75 points above the intended element for the touch to register correctly. This makes any web content unusable when a content inset is present. A sample app demonstrating the issue is available here: GitHub - iOS18.4-Webview-Bug. The issue does not occur in iOS 18.3 or 18.2. Bug Report The bug has been reported and fixed at WebKit Bug 289715 and also filed as rdar://147075945. Question Will the fix be included in the upcoming iOS 18.4 beta release (Beta 5) or soon thereafter?

Thank you for supporting me. My environment Device: iPhone 15 Pro OS: iOS 26.0 Public Beta (23A5336a) In iOS 26, three types of tabs were added to Safari. Depending on the option, the behavior of the fixed header and footer can be unstable. *Tab settings can be changed in the iOS Settings app under "Apps -> Safari" > "Tabs." The following behavior differs depending on the tab. Compact When scrolling down, the header and footer shift up by a few pixels. A margin is created between the footer and the URL input field. Bottom Behaves the same as "Compact." Top The header is completely hidden below the URL input field at the top of the screen, leaving a margin below the footer. Below is the sample code to check the operation. <!doctype html> <html lang="ja"> <head> <meta charset="utf-8" /> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width,initial-scale=1" /> <title>固定ヘッダー/フッター + モーダル</title> <style> :root { --header-h: 56px; --footer-h: 56px; } body { margin: 0; font-family: sans-serif; line-height: 1.6; background: #f9fafb; padding-top: var(--header-h); padding-bottom: var(--footer-h); } header .inner, footer .inner { width: 100%; max-width: var(--max-content-w); padding: 0 16px; display: flex; align-items: center; justify-content: space-between; } header, footer { position: fixed; left: 0; right: 0; display: flex; align-items: center; justify-content: center; z-index: 100; background: #fff; } header { top: 0; height: var(--header-h); border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd; } footer { bottom: 0; height: var(--footer-h); border-top: 1px solid #ddd; } main { padding: 16px; } .btn { padding: 8px 16px; border: 1px solid #2563eb; background: #2563eb; color: #fff; border-radius: 6px; cursor: pointer; } /* モーダル関連 */ .modal { position: fixed; inset: 0; display: none; z-index: 1000; } .modal.is-open { display: block; } .modal__backdrop { position: absolute; inset: 0; background: rgba(0,0,0,0.5); } .modal__panel { position: relative; max-width: 600px; margin: 10% auto; background: #fff; border-radius: 8px; padding: 20px; z-index: 1; } .modal__head { display: flex; justify-content: space-between; align-items: center; margin-bottom: 12px; } .modal__title { margin: 0; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; } .modal__close { background: none; border: none; font-size: 20px; cursor: pointer; } </style> </head> <body> <header> <div class="inner"> <h1>デモページ</h1> <button id="openModal" class="btn">モーダルを開く</button> </div> </header> <main class="container" id="main"> <h2>スクロール用の適当なコンテンツ1</h2> <p>ヘッダーとフッターは常に表示されます。モーダルボタンを押すと、画面いっぱいのダイアログが開きます。</p> <!-- ダミーカードを複数 --> <section class="grid"> <div class="card"><strong>カード1</strong><p>適当なテキスト。適当なテキスト。適当なテキスト。</p></div> <div class="card"><strong>カード2</strong><p>適当なテキスト。適当なテキスト。適当なテキスト。</p></div> <div class="card"><strong>カード3</strong><p>適当なテキスト。適当なテキスト。適当なテキスト。</p></div> <div class="card"><strong>カード4</strong><p>適当なテキスト。適当なテキスト。適当なテキスト。</p></div> <div class="card"><strong>カード5</strong><p>適当なテキスト。適当なテキスト。適当なテキスト。</p></div> <div class="card"><strong>カード6</strong><p>適当なテキスト。適当なテキスト。適当なテキスト。</p></div> <div class="card"><strong>カード7</strong><p>適当なテキスト。適当なテキスト。適当なテキスト。</p></div> <div class="card"><strong>カード8</strong><p>適当なテキスト。適当なテキスト。適当なテキスト。</p></div> <div class="card"><strong>カード9</strong><p>適当なテキスト。適当なテキスト。適当なテキスト。</p></div> <div class="card"><strong>カード10</strong><p>適当なテキスト。適当なテキスト。適当なテキスト。</p></div> </section> </main> <footer> <small>&copy; 2025 Demo</small> </footer> <!-- モーダル --> <div class="modal" id="modal"> <div class="modal__backdrop"></div> <div class="modal__panel"> <div class="modal__head"> <h2 class="modal__title">モーダル</h2> <button class="modal__close" id="closeModal">&times;</button> </div> <p>これは白いビューのモーダルです。背景は黒く半透明で覆われています。</p> </div> </div> <script> const modal = document.getElementById('modal'); const openBtn = document.getElementById('openModal'); const closeBtn = document.getElementById('closeModal'); const backdrop = modal.querySelector('.modal__backdrop'); openBtn.addEventListener('click', () => { modal.classList.add('is-open'); }); function closeModal() { modal.classList.remove('is-open'); } closeBtn.addEventListener('click', closeModal); backdrop.addEventListener('click', closeModal); window.addEventListener('keydown', (e) => { if (e.key === 'Escape' && modal.classList.contains('is-open')) { closeModal(); } }); </script> </body> </html>

I want to migrate from a Safari App Extension to a Safari Web Extension, but don't know how to get rid of the message, telling users that my extension can access their passwords. Here is a message which I see: I was thinking that this might be because all Safari Web Extension get this type of access, but I have a Safari Web Extension which does not require such level of access: Here is the manifest: { "manifest_version": 2, "default_locale": "en", "name": "__MSG_extension_name__", "description": "__MSG_extension_description__", "version": "1.1", "icons": { "48": "images/icon-48.png" }, "background": { "scripts": [ "background.js" ], "persistent": true }, "browser_action": { "default_popup": "popup.html", "default_icon": { "16": "images/toolbar-icon-16.png" } }, "permissions": [ "nativeMessaging", "tabs" ] } and here is the Info.plist file: Here is the entire code of the extension: https://github.com/kopyl/web-extension-simplified

Our app, VitalSource Bookshelf, is an EPUB reader that uses a WKWebView to display book content. The EPUB content format is XHTML and uses namespaces (for the epub:type declaration). On beta 4, the webkit process repeatedly crashes when loading our content. The crash appears to be in the XML parser. Here's what's at the top of the stack trace: 0 WebCore 0x19166a878 WebCore::XMLDocumentParser::startElementNs(unsigned char const*, unsigned char const*, unsigned char const*, int, unsigned char const**, int, int, unsigned char const**) + 4968 1 libxml2.2.dylib 0x19c5a2bd0 xmlParseStartTag2 + 3940 2 libxml2.2.dylib 0x19c59e730 xmlParseTryOrFinish + 2984 3 libxml2.2.dylib 0x19c59d8e4 xmlParseChunk + 708 4 WebCore 0x191668ec8 WebCore::XMLDocumentParser::doWrite(WTF::String const&) + 636 5 WebCore 0x191665b78 WebCore::XMLDocumentParser::append(WTF::RefPtr<WTF::StringImpl, WTF::RawPtrTraits<WTF::StringImpl>, WTF::DefaultRefDerefTraits<WTF::StringImpl>>&&) + 304 6 WebCore 0x190105db0 WebCore::DecodedDataDocumentParser::appendBytes(WebCore::DocumentWriter&, std::__1::span<unsigned char const, 18446744073709551615ul>) + 268 7 WebCore 0x190861c3c WebCore::DocumentLoader::commitData(WebCore::SharedBuffer const&) + 1488 8 WebKit 0x18e07ca3c WebKit::WebLocalFrameLoaderClient::committedLoad(WebCore::DocumentLoader*, WebCore::SharedBuffer const&) + 52 9 WebCore 0x190869db4 WebCore::DocumentLoader::commitLoad(WebCore::SharedBuffer const&) + 228 10 WebCore 0x1909521e4 WebCore::CachedRawResource::notifyClientsDataWasReceived(WebCore::SharedBuffer const&) + 268 I was able to reproduce this in Safari on beta 4 just by opening the following trivial xhtml file from the file system - it does the same thing it does in our app, which is reloads and crashes several times, followed by the "A problem repeatedly occurred with..." error message. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <!DOCTYPE html> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:epub="http://www.idpf.org/2007/ops" epub:prefix="vst: http://vitalsource.com/"><head></head><body class="dash" epub:type="chapter" data-begin-o="0" data-begin-o2="0" data-begin-o3="0" data-o="0" id="eid1844" data-end-o="14703" data-end-o2="14703" data-end-o3="14703"><h2 class="title" data-o="0" id="eid1845" data-out="33"><span class="label" data-o="0" id="eid1846"><span class="label-inner"><b data-o="0" id="eid1847">CHAPTER X</b> </span></span>THE SUBMARINE COAL-MINES</h2></body></html> I've also filed a feedback. But posting here just to raise the visibility - this is critical for us. I think it was introduced in beta 4; that's at least when we first noticed it. It was working in the earlier betas, I just don't remember if I tried beta 3 or not. It happens on iOS, macOS, and iPadOS. This has never been a problem in any earlier release of macOS / iOS.

On iOS 26 Beta, WKWebView consistently crashes when interacting with pages that use -webkit-user-select: none. This issue does not reproduce in Safari, but only when the same content is loaded inside a WKWebView. Steps to Reproduce: Install iOS 26 Beta. Open a WKWebView that loads a webpage with the following style applied globally: -webkit-user-select: none; Perform the following gesture sequence inside the WKWebView: Double tap anywhere in the web content. On the second tap, keep your finger pressed (do not lift). While still holding the second tap, drag your finger across the screen (pan). This sequence reliably produces the crash. Expected Result: No crash. The gesture should either be ignored or handled gracefully. Actual Result: The app crashes 100% of the time with the following exception: #0 0x000000013f1a0874 in __pthread_kill () #1 0x00000001357522ec in pthread_kill () #2 0x00000001801ad950 in abort () #3 0x00000001802fa26c in __abort_message () #4 0x00000001802ea1a4 in demangling_terminate_handler () #5 0x0000000180077218 in _objc_terminate () #6 0x00000001802f9758 in std::__terminate () #7 0x00000001802fc7c0 in __cxxabiv1::failed_throw () #8 0x00000001802fc7a0 in __cxa_throw () #9 0x000000018009c1bc in objc_exception_throw () #10 0x00000001804f38f8 in +[NSException raise:format:] () #11 0x000000018c5fb570 in -[CALayer setPosition:] () #12 0x0000000185d02414 in -[UIView _backing_setPosition:] () #13 0x00000001867ec978 in -[UIView setCenter:] () #14 0x0000000186666468 in -[_UIEditMenuContentPresentation _displayPreparedMenu:titleView:reason:didDismissMenu:configuration:] () #15 0x0000000186666088 in __54-[_UIEditMenuContentPresentation _displayMenu:reason:]_block_invoke () #16 0x00000001867b3ed4 in -[UIEditMenuInteraction _editMenuPresentation:preparedMenuForDisplay:completion:] () #17 0x0000000186665fb0 in -[_UIEditMenuContentPresentation _displayMenu:reason:] () #18 0x0000000186665de4 in -[_UIEditMenuContentPresentation displayMenu:configuration:] () #19 0x00000001867b3260 in __58-[UIEditMenuInteraction presentEditMenuWithConfiguration:]_block_invoke () #20 0x00000001867b4c98 in __80-[UIEditMenuInteraction _prepareMenuAtLocation:configuration:completionHandler:]_block_invoke () #21 0x000000018653ff80 in __109-[UITextContextMenuInteraction _editMenuInteraction:menuForConfiguration:suggestedActions:completionHandler:]_block_invoke () #22 0x0000000186540448 in __107-[UITextContextMenuInteraction _querySelectionCommandsForConfiguration:suggestedActions:completionHandler:]_block_invoke () #23 0x000000018dba84f8 in WTF::Detail::CallableWrapper<WTF::CompletionHandler<void (IPC::Connection*, IPC::Decoder*)> IPC::Connection::makeAsyncReplyCompletionHandler<Messages::WebPage::RequestDocumentEditingContext, WTF::CompletionHandler<void (WebKit::DocumentEditingContext&&)>>(WTF::CompletionHandler<void (WebKit::DocumentEditingContext&&)>&&, WTF::ThreadLikeAssertion)::'lambda'(IPC::Connection*, IPC::Decoder*), void, IPC::Connection*, IPC::Decoder*>::call () #24 0x000000018dca14cc in WTF::Detail::CallableWrapper<WebKit::AuxiliaryProcessProxy::sendMessage(WTF::UniqueRef<IPC::Encoder>&&, WTF::OptionSet<IPC::SendOption>, std::__1::optional<IPC::ConnectionAsyncReplyHandler>, WebKit::AuxiliaryProcessProxy::ShouldStartProcessThrottlerActivity)::$_1, void, IPC::Connection*, IPC::Decoder*>::call () #25 0x000000018e2d5c54 in IPC::Connection::dispatchMessage () #26 0x000000018e2d6118 in IPC::Connection::dispatchIncomingMessages () #27 0x00000001997f9c58 in WTF::RunLoop::performWork () #28 0x00000001997fa930 in WTF::RunLoop::performWork () #29 0x000000018044d4dc in __CFRUNLOOP_IS_CALLING_OUT_TO_A_SOURCE0_PERFORM_FUNCTION__ () #30 0x000000018044d424 in __CFRunLoopDoSource0 () #31 0x000000018044cc0c in __CFRunLoopDoSources0 () #32 0x000000018044bd84 in __CFRunLoopRun () #33 0x0000000180446e24 in _CFRunLoopRunSpecificWithOptions () #34 0x00000001924c19bc in GSEventRunModal () #35 0x00000001862217a8 in -[UIApplication _run] () #36 0x00000001862259d0 in UIApplicationMain () Same issues below. https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/796799 https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/796501 https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/796874 https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/796686

Typically, you can use the @@extension_id special string to reference the absolute path into the bundled resources of an extension, such as an image or a custom font, in a CSS file. However, this broke with Safari 18. Consider this section in a popup.css file: .card-icon { height: 16px; width: 20px; background-image: url(safari-web-extension://__MSG_@@extension_id__/images/card.svg); background-size: 20px 16px; } In Safari 17.4, once loaded in the browser, @@extension_id is replaced with E8BEA491-9B80-45DB-8B20-3E586473BD47, and the background-image reads as so: background-image: url(safari-web-extension://E8BEA491-9B80-45DB-8B20-3E586473BD47/images/card.svg); But as of Safari 18, the @@extension_id just collapses to an empty string, and the background-image reads as so: background-image: url(safari-web-extension:///images/card.svg); and the svg fails to load with the following error: "Failed to load resource: You do not have permission to access the requested resource." This is a regression, does to match the behavior of the other major browsers, and should be fixed. Filed with Feedback ID: FB15104807

Hello, According to the documentation: If you provide your extension in macOS and don’t want to use the Mac App Store for distribution, you can sign and notarize your extension’s app with a Developer ID to distribute it outside the Mac App Store. However, I found this to be untrue in practice. Even after signing and notarising the Safari extension correctly, it is not possible to enable it in Safari without turning on "allow unsigned extension". This makes it impossible to distribute your Developer ID–signed and notarized extension outside the Mac App Store. I would like to distribute my web extension directly to employees in my organization using MDM without having each user manually enable "allow unsigned extension" for it to work. Any way to make it work? The documentation is quite confusing in this aspect, it says "Safari only supports signed extensions" but my extension is rejected even if notarised and signed.

I recently upgraded my device from IOS 18.4 to IOS 26. My web extension has disapeared from safari. I can see it in Settings > Apps > Safari > Extensions and when I turn it on and re-open safari. I just get a mesasge that says "{extension name} is no longer avaiable". I have tried Manifest V2 and Manifest V3 both yield the same results. The current production extension bundled with the IOS app has the same problem. I can no longer use or test my own extension !? Help please !

Hi all, I'm currently working with WKWebView and implementing the WKNavigationDelegate protocol. In particular, I'm trying to inspect the sourceFrame of a WKNavigationAction to make navigation policy decisions based on the frame's URL path. Here's the relevant Swift code inside decidePolicyFor: public func webView(_ webView: WKWebView, decidePolicyFor navigationAction: WKNavigationAction, preferences: WKWebpagePreferences, decisionHandler: @escaping (WKNavigationActionPolicy, WKWebpagePreferences) -> Void) { // ... let sourceFrame: WKFrameInfo = navigationAction.sourceFrame let request: URLRequest = sourceFrame.request // <- SIGABRT occurs here // ... } The issue is that the app crashes with a SIGABRT at runtime when attempting to access sourceFrame.request. According to Swift's type system, neither sourceFrame nor its request property are optional, so at first glance this seems safe. However, the crash report suggests otherwise. From the crash log, it appears that the issue arises during the bridging from Objective-C to Swift: Thread 1 Queue : com.apple.main-thread (serial) #0 0x00000001a127a030 in static Foundation.URLRequest._unconditionallyBridgeFromObjectiveC(Swift.Optional<__C.NSURLRequest>) -> Foundation.URLRequest () #1 0x00000001056c48b0 in CustomWebViewController.webView(_:decidePolicyFor:preferences:decisionHandler:) #2 0x00000001056c4c78 in @objc CustomWebViewController.webView(_:decidePolicyFor:preferences:decisionHandler:) () #3 0x00000001b8c66e0c in WebKit::NavigationState::NavigationClient::decidePolicyForNavigationAction () #4 0x00000001b8fd14dc in WebKit::WebPageProxy::decidePolicyForNavigationAction () #5 0x00000001b8fcfc7c in WebKit::WebPageProxy::decidePolicyForNavigationActionAsyncShared () #6 0x00000001b8fcfb18 in WebKit::WebPageProxy::decidePolicyForNavigationActionAsync () #7 0x00000001b87ddaa0 in WebKit::WebPageProxy::didReceiveMessage () #8 0x00000001b869f474 in IPC::MessageReceiverMap::dispatchMessage () #9 0x00000001b878dda4 in WebKit::WebProcessProxy::dispatchMessage () #10 0x00000001b878d614 in WebKit::WebProcessProxy::didReceiveMessage () #11 0x00000001b869e7e4 in IPC::Connection::dispatchMessage () #12 0x00000001b869e358 in IPC::Connection::dispatchIncomingMessages () #13 0x00000001b9a96a44 in WTF::RunLoop::performWork () #14 0x00000001b9a96688 in WTF::RunLoop::performWork () #15 0x00000001a2428b9c in __CFRUNLOOP_IS_CALLING_OUT_TO_A_SOURCE0_PERFORM_FUNCTION__ () #16 0x00000001a24289b4 in __CFRunLoopDoSource0 () #17 0x00000001a2428810 in __CFRunLoopDoSources0 () #18 0x00000001a2429190 in __CFRunLoopRun () #19 0x00000001a242ad4c in CFRunLoopRunSpecific () #20 0x00000001ef705454 in GSEventRunModal () #21 0x00000001a4e45890 in -[UIApplication _run] () #22 0x00000001a4e10cec in UIApplicationMain () #23 0x00000001a4ef261c in ___lldb_unnamed_symbol275689 () #24 0x00000001059a5104 in static UIApplicationDelegate.main() () #25 0x00000001059a5074 in static AppDelegate.$main() () #26 0x00000001059a82ec in main () #27 0x00000001c940af0c in start () This implies that while Swift treats sourceFrame.request as non-optional, the underlying Objective-C implementation may actually return nil—leading to a crash when the non-optional Swift type attempts to force unwrap it. My question: Is there a way to safely access navigationAction.sourceFrame.request —- or determine if it’s nil—before Swift attempts the implicit bridging from Objective-C? Or is there an established workaround for safely inspecting this property? Any guidance or best practices for avoiding this crash would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Hi, I have an app that uses WKWebView and it's crashing on iOS 26 Simulator in places I've never had problems before. In this case it's crashing when calling WKWebView.callAsyncJavaScript, but in my other project WKWebView is crashing with some sort of EXC_BAD_ACCESS other than callAsyncJavaScript. Am I missing something? Thanks,

Hi, My app is using JavascriptCore to run the business logic in a javascript environment. We are randomly seeing crashes when users move the app back to the foreground. These crashes are reported by Firebase (I am attaching an example). I also tried to find them in Organizer, but the stacktraces don't match and I am not sure if they are pointing to the same error (I attach one just in case). I was trying to investigate a little bit about this, but I could find any explanation about what pas_reallocation_did_fail would mean. Here is our implementation: -(void) enqueueCallback:(JSValue *)callback withArguments:(NSArray *)args exclusive:(BOOL)exclusive { [self enqueueBlock:^{ @autoreleasepool { [callback callWithArguments:args]; } } exclusive:exclusive]; } Basically, every JS block is enqueued and then run by a dedicated thread specific to our JSContext. Can I get some help? Thanks in advance! Crashlytics.txt 2024-08-30_10-00-01.2572_-0400-f757f8306eda9679ec1b2ff90fbc66c4eb1fbee7.crash

I'm building a macOS extension that needs to track multi-step navigation chains (A → B → C) to adjust behavior based on where users came from. Current approach: Using webNavigation.onBeforeNavigate to detect intermediate steps, but experiencing issues in Safari that don't occur on Chrome/Firefox/Edge. Questions: Is webNavigation the right API for tracking redirect chains in Safari? Does ITP/Private Browsing affect event delivery? Any alternative approaches recommended? (Safari version 26.0.1) Any guidance appreciated!
