- UI – It’s minimalistic, and my favorite is the compact toolbar that merges url bars into one row, saving a lot of screen on a laptop. It also has the cleanest reader mode I have ever used. Just display the article nicely without any other buttons. I also like the consistency in visual design. Since Safari is a native app, it compliments the macOS design well.
- Sync with iOS – It feels really good when I leave my MacBook, and it immediately picks up my browsing tab on my phone. It’s effortless.
- System Service Integration – This is a rather exclusive feature. It natively supports Keychains and Hide My Email and provides actions in Shortcuts, which I use heavily.
- Hate
- Slow Update – It usually updates alongside macOS, so it’s less frequent than other browsers. Profiles/ Web App/ etc., these are becoming basic for most web browsers, so I’m just glad it finally meets the modern standard. Due to the update frequency, it couldn’t have implemented something like Bing chats in Edge or redesigning browser UI in Arc and adding that to Safari.
