I was also a little sad that Apple withdrew Safari from Windows. How does Apple envision bookmark sharing happen for a Windows user who buys an iPhone?

- saagarjha 8y agoYou probably know the answer: Apple would rather you get a Mac. If you’re using Safari and want it on Windows, you’re in a small minority since there are many competing browsers on Windows.
- giobox 8y agoThey’ve supported this for quite some time in the absence of Safari for Windows. The iCloud for Windows client will sync your bookmarks from your third party Windows browsers, much the same way as it plugs the holes for syncing photos and documents on Windows as well. > https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201391 https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201391 > https://www.techrepublic.com/article/pro-tip-sync-bookmarks-between-macs-ios-and-windows-using-icloud/ https://www.techrepublic.com/article/pro-tip-sync-bookmarks-...
- pdimitar 8y agoI was worried as well but as a sibling comment said, The iCloud for Windows client is quite adequate. I use it to have bidirectional bookmark syncing to and from both Chrome and Firefox. Works pretty well, never made a mistake so far.
- kkarakk 8y agoLiterally everyone who is multiplatform uses Chrome/google utilities. it's undeniably better for internet workflows. i tried safari for a couple of days when i switched to mac and switched back to chrome. safari lack of feature parity isn't worth the battery savings(although i do have an android not an iphone so that probably affects my decision)
