They use a Cocoa feature called [WkWebView] (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/webkit/wkwebview https://developer.apple.com/documentation/webkit/wkwebview) which is an embedded webkit browser. Any functionality that differs from Safari is not part of the actual "browser". It's just "skin" on top of it. (Bookmark syncing, etc)
- parasubvert 4y agoWkWebView is a web renderer and partial navigator, it's not a browser. My point is that people are really stretching the term "skin". Bookmark syncing, tab & window management, history management, security management etc. all are features of a browser, and they have a major impact on the UX of that browser. They are WHY there are still users of Firefox or Chrome on iOS! They're not "skin" features, which typically imply minor look & feel related items.
