Picture-in- Picture was one of the most exciting new features of Safari that debuted with macOS Sierra. It's extremely useful to be able to watch a video while it's floating above everything else. It is compatible with a wide range of popular video streaming websites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Safari is the fastest browser on Apple-based products, and on devices like the iPhone and iMac, Safari has access to all computer and phone resources – but that’s the problem. Safari can’t be used on other operating systems, like Windows or Android, because it’s designed to work in sync with the Apple OS only Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Apple Safari is my go-to browser when Chrome doesn't meet the bar. While I primarily use Chrome because all of my accounts are connected to it, there are times where sites don't load properly on Chrome and Safari is my go-to! I often use Safari for testing on marketing projects and it is a great tool!
I also love that bookmarks on my iPhone/desktop are shared! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
On mobile, it is easy to end up with hundreds of pages and then tabs of sites you're browsing that take a long time to close out. However, this may be a user error. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Safari pairs natively to the iOS landscape and thus syncs my preferences across platforms, which I enjoy. I enjoy the speed at which Safari allows me to navigate to the Google Chrome download page. Aside from that, the times I do have to use Safari, I've found it to be a pleasant experience. It's easy to save bookmarks and quickly navigate to saved pages and previous work. I also feel more secure in my privacy in both browsing and data collection by Apple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I tend to use a more Google-based software collection than an Apple offering, and as such, I find that Safari doesn't fit my needs when interfacing between my CRM software, Calendar, and Maps. I don't find Apple's browser to bring enough to the table for me to make the switch fully. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are numerous things that are best about Safari, we can start with the smooth integration with hardware to provide its users with a seamless browsing experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only thing which I dislike or less like is the development support. In my opinion, there is a need for improvements in the development support of Safari. We need to switch to a Chromium-based browser whenever we need to do development which is not good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Highly advanced web browing experience using Apple's Safari. It prevents tracking sites and cookies and stays up to date with iCloud tabs and bookmarks on my iPhone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is nothing to not love on Safari. Once you get the hang of it, it makes your online functionality a breeze. Since 2015, it's the only web browser I trust and use till date. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Less or No BackEnd Plugins. Safari is a very reliable tool and can hold multiple tabs without crashing the application. Unlike Chrome, Malware Attack is also prevented and Ad-wares are avoided in a pretty good manner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
In-built Extensions library is not that vast as it is for google chrome or mozilla firefox. Safari should have some extensions like Ad-blockers, Grammerly etc for UI Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like that it saves my passwords and logins and that it shares them across al of my apple devices securely Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes it is not compatible with certain sites Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Safari is possibly the smoothest browser you will use on mac or iPhone.The scrolling is the smoothest and also because of apple's force touch trackpad you can preview the pages easily and swiping back through trackpad is very smooth unlike edge or chrome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The lack of many extensions is the biggest drawback for it and we can only install extensions from app store. If they just supported chrome webstore extensions it would be the best browser. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have been using safari for almost 5 years and until now I didn't face any major issues while loading any websites. The features in both mac os and ios are similar and user friendly and better than any other browsers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Some of the websites load slow as compared to other browsers, maybe they are not well optimized for the same. When there are bugs or websites are too large it sometimes freezes and crashes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The seamless experience for internet browsing is a must in these days of work from home and it can not be well experienced in any other browser than Safari itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The operating system support of safari is significantly less than is only to Mac and iOS. In my opinion, if this support gets extended to Windows or Ubuntu as well, then this browser can outperform in the world. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
