Today, we are excited to announce the release of Safari 16.0 for iOS 16, macOS Monterey and macOS Big Sur.

Safari 15.6 is the seventh major release of Safari since last fall’s Safari 15.0.

WWDC22 is here, and with it, a host of announcements of new web technology shipping in WebKit on macOS, iOS and iPadOS, including advancements in privacy and security – plus new features for Safari, Web Inspector and Safari Web Extensions.

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.

WebKit is the purring engine of Safari, it’s true, but it has numerous ports and many contributors.

After the feature-packed release of Safari 15.4 two months ago, WebKit’s work for this version of Safari focused predominately on polishing existing features and fixing bugs.

With over 70 additions to WebKit, Safari 15.4 is packed with new web technologies, updates, and fixes.

The internet has always been about communication and collaboration.

With the release of Safari 15 for macOS Monterey, iPadOS 15, iOS 15, and watchOS, as well as macOS Big Sur and macOS Catalina, WebKit brings significant advancements in privacy and security, improved interoperability, and a host of new features for web developers.

There’s a lot of news coming out of WWDC21 about WebKit and the web technology that’s shipping in Safari 15 on Apple’s platforms.

Safari 14.1 for macOS Big Sur, iPadOS 14.5, and iOS 14.5 brings new WebKit features, APIs, performance improvements, and improved compatibility for web developers.
