As far as I can see based on pwa.gripe data, between 26.3 (my version) and the newcoming 26.4 Safari on iOS gains support for five new APIs:
— Offline support
— Media capture
— Picture-in-picture
— Storage
— Speech synthesis
As well as five more APIs with caveats:
— Installation
— Notifications
— Web Push
— Barcode detection
— Speech recognition
Even taking into account that it also evidently loses support for one (audio session; I wonder if that that has to do with potential for fingerprinting), framing this feature differential between two minor(!) releases as “intentional crippling of Mobile Safari continues” strikes me as somewhat loaded.
- rejhgadellaa 7mo agoDo you have a source link for this? I don't want to sound snarky, but this list doesn't make sense to me. Offline support has been available (and buggy, YMMV) for a long time. Web Push has been available since 16.4 (with a lot of caveats) I haven't heard anything about installation (but I may have missed something)
- strogonoff 7mo agoMy source is TFA, as I stated. This is what I see in the table when I follow the link. For example, in the column for my current iOS version offline support is crossed out, and for the upcoming version it has a check mark. If the claim being made is that pwa.gripe is a bad source, I can only assure I have nothing to do with the site. If they misinform visitors about Safari’s capabilities with regard to PWAs, you should post it as a top-level comment.
