How to Check the Version Number of Apple Safari Browser

When you need to know which Safari you're running

What To Know

• Choose Safari from the top menu, and About Safari . The version number will be on the window that pops up.
• On iOS, go to Settings > General > Software Update . Your iOS version and Safari version are the same. (Example: iOS 11 = Safari 11)

This article explains how to find the version of Safari that you're running on a Mac and an iOS device.

Find the Safari Version Number on a Mac

To determine which version of Safari is installed on a Mac computer:

Go to the dock and select the Safari icon to open the Safari browser.

Choose About Safari under the Safari menu.

A small window appears with the browser version number.

The first number, located before the parenthesis, is the current version of Safari. The longer second number (located inside the parentheses) is the WebKit/Safari Build version. For example, if the dialog box displays Version 11.0.3 (13604.5.6), the Safari version number is 11.0.3.

Find the Safari Version Number on an IOS Device

Because Safari is part of the iOS operating system, its version is the same as the current version of iOS that you have.

To see the iOS version currently installed on an iPhone or iPad, follow the instructions below.

Open Settings .

Select General .

Select Software Update . The number that appears at the top of the screen next to iOS is the version number. For example, if your iPhone or iPad is running iOS 11.2.6, then it is running Safari 11. If your device is running iOS 12.1.2, it is running Safari 12, and so on.

Underneath the version number, you'll either see "Your software is up to date" or a prompt to update to the latest version.

As of October, 2022, the current version of Safari on Mac, iPad, and iPhone is 16.0.

First, turn off automatic updates by opening System Preferences and selecting Software Update , then turning off Automatically keep my Mac up to date . After that, either restore a Time Machine backup that included an older version of Safari, or downgrade to an earlier version of macOS .

Blazing fast. Incredibly private.

Safari is the best way to experience the internet on all your Apple devices. It brings robust customization options, powerful privacy protections, and industry-leading battery life — so you can browse how you like, when you like. And when it comes to speed, it’s the world’s fastest browser. 1

With a blazing-fast JavaScript engine, Safari is the world’s fastest browser. 1 It’s developed to run specifically on Apple devices, so it’s geared to make the most out of your battery life and deliver long-lasting power. And with Apple silicon, it’s even faster than ever before. 2

We’re always working to make the fastest desktop browser on the planet even faster.

4K video streaming

See your favorite shows and films in their best light. Safari supports in-browser 4K HDR video playback for YouTube, Netflix, and Apple TV+. 6 And it runs efficiently for longer-lasting battery life.

Privacy is built in.

Online privacy isn’t just something you should hope for — it’s something you should expect. That’s why Safari comes with industry-leading privacy protection technology built in, including Intelligent Tracking Prevention that identifies trackers and helps prevent them from profiling or following you across the web. Upgrading to iCloud+ gives you even more privacy protections, including the ability to sign up for websites and services without having to share your personal email address.

Intelligent Tracking Prevention

Safari stops trackers in their tracks.

What you browse is no one’s business but your own. Safari has built‑in protections to help stop websites and data-collection companies from watching and profiling you based on your browsing activity. Intelligent Tracking Prevention uses on-device intelligence to help prevent cross-site tracking and stops known trackers from using your IP address — making it incredibly difficult to learn who you are and what you’re interested in.

Privacy Report

Safari makes it simple to see how your privacy is protected on all the websites you visit. Click the Privacy Report button in your toolbar for a snapshot of cross-site trackers currently prevented from profiling you on the website you’re visiting. Or view a weekly Privacy Report to see how Safari protects you as you browse over time.

Customization

Putting the you in url..

Safari is more customizable than ever. Organize your tabs into Tab Groups so it’s easy to go from one interest to the next. Set a custom background image and fine-tune your browser window with your favorite features — like Reading List, Favorites, iCloud Tabs, and Siri Suggestions. And third-party extensions for iPhone, iPad, and Mac let you do even more with Safari, so you can browse the way you want across all your devices.

Save and organize your tabs in the way that works best for you. Name your Tab Groups, edit them, and switch among them across devices. You can also share Tab Groups — making planning your next family trip or group project easier and more collaborative.

Safari Extensions add functionality to your browser to help you explore the web the way you want. Find and add your favorite extensions in the dedicated Safari category on the App Store.

Smart Tools

Designed to help your work flow..

Built-in tools create a browsing experience that’s far more immersive, intuitive, and immediate. Get detailed information about a subject in a photo with just a click, select text within any image, instantly translate an entire web page, and quickly take notes wherever you are on a site — without having to switch apps.

Notes is your go-to app to capture any thought. And with the new Quick Note feature, you can instantly jot down ideas as you browse websites without having to leave Safari.

Translation

Translate entire web pages between 18 languages with a single click. You can also translate text in images and paused video without leaving Safari.

Interact with text in any image on the web using functions like copy and paste, lookup, and translate. 7

Visual Look Up

Quickly learn more about landmarks, works of art, breeds of dogs, and more with only a photo or an image you find online. 8 And easily lift the subject of an image from Safari, remove its background, and paste it into Messages, Notes, or other apps.

Surf safe and sound.

Strong security protections in Safari help keep you safe. Passkeys introduce a safer way to sign in. iCloud Keychain securely stores and autofills passkeys and passwords across all your devices. Safari also notifies you when it encounters suspicious websites and prevents them from loading. Because it loads each web page in a separate process, any harmful code is always confined to a single browser tab so it won’t crash the entire application or access your data. And Safari automatically upgrades sites from HTTP to the more secure HTTPS when available.

Passkeys introduce a more secure and easier way to sign in. No passwords required.

Passkeys are end-to-end encrypted and safe from phishing and data leaks, and they are stronger than all common two-factor authentication types. Thanks to iCloud Keychain, they work across all your Apple devices, and they even work on non-Apple devices.

Learn more about passkeys

Wallet make checkout as easy as lifting a finger.

With AutoFill, you can easily fill in your previously saved credit card information from the Wallet app during checkout. Your credit card details are never shared, and your transactions are protected with industry-leading security.

Same Safari. Different device.

Safari works seamlessly and syncs your passwords, bookmarks, history, tabs, and more across Mac, iPad, iPhone, and Apple Watch. And when your Mac, iOS, or iPadOS devices are near each other, they can automatically pass what you’re doing in Safari from one device to another using Handoff. You can even copy images, video, or text from Safari on your iPhone or iPad, then paste into another app on your nearby Mac — or vice versa.

When you use Safari on multiple devices, your tabs carry over from one Apple device to another. So you can search, shop, work, or browse on your iPhone, then switch to your iPad or Mac and pick up right where you left off.

Save web pages you want to read later by adding them to your Reading List. Then view them on any of your iCloud-connected devices — even if you’re not connected to the internet.

iCloud Keychain securely stores your user names, passkeys, passwords, and credit card numbers and keeps them up to date on your trusted devices. So you can easily sign in to your favorite websites — as well as apps on iOS and iPadOS — and quickly make online purchases.

Designed for developers.

Deep WebKit integration between Mac hardware and macOS allows Safari to deliver the fastest performance and the longest battery life of any browser on the platform, while supporting modern web standards for rich experiences in the browser. WebKit in macOS Ventura includes optimizations that enable even richer browsing experiences, and give developers more control over styling and layout — allowing for more engaging content.

Make Safari your default browser

Customize your start page, view your browsing privacy report, monitor your saved passwords, view your tabs across all your devices, read the safari user guide, get safari support.

How To Update Safari On Your Mac: A Step-By-Step Guide

It's no secret that Safari is the go-to browser for many Mac users . Sure, other browsers like Google Chrome have their advantages , especially if you're deep into Google's ecosystem, but using third-party browsers other than Safari on your Mac has downsides. Safari is optimized for macOS and integrates seamlessly with your other Apple devices like your iPhone and iPad by using Handoff.

If you've been a part of the Apple ecosystem for a while now, you're probably aware of Handoff, a very convenient Apple feature that allows you to begin a task on one of your devices, and pick up where you left off on another device.

Safari is no exception — Handoff allows you to start reading or watching something on your iPhone or iPad, and pick up where you left off on your Mac. This not only saves you the time of looking for a webpage but also makes jumping from one task to another extremely simple. Like any application, keeping Safari up to date is extremely important. Not only do new Safari updates come with newer features, but Apple also frequently rolls out updates to address security threats.

Now that you know it is a good idea to install Safari updates whenever they're rolled out, the real question is: How do you update Safari? Strangely enough, if your Apple device is updated to macOS Ventura or later , the only way to update Safari is to update your Mac itself.

How to update macOS

While you can't update Safari without updating macOS, you can check which version of Safari you're currently using. To do so, open the Safari app on your Mac and click on Safari from the menu bar. Now, select About Safari from the dropdown menu. Once you do so, a dialogue box will appear. The version of Safari you're currently using should be mentioned below the "Safari" text.

If you'd like to update Safari, follow the steps below to update macOS:

Click the Apple menu in the menu bar and select System Settings from the dropdown menu.

Select General from the sidebar on the left.

Click Software Update and wait for a few seconds.

Now, if a new update is available, click Update Now next to Updates Available.

If a Safari-specific update is available, you can click More Info and select Safari from the "Updates are available for your Mac" section.

To avoid having to update macOS manually to update Safari, we recommend enabling automatic updates. This way, you won't miss out on new features and can rest easy, knowing that Apple has fixed any known security threats . To do so, click the info icon next to Automatic updates and toggle on the switch next to Download new updates when available, Install macOS updates, and Install Security Responses and system files.

How to Tell What Version of Safari Is on My iPhone

The Safari app is part of iOS, so Apple keeps this mobile browser up to date with your phone's operating system. For the past several iOS releases, the Safari version number has been consistent with the iOS version number: If your iPhone runs iOS 12, you have Safari 12 installed. Look at your iPhone's settings for a general idea of which Safari version you have. If you want more detailed information about your version number and features, use an online tool to detect your browser's version number.

About Safari Versions and Updates

Video of the Day

Apple usually references Safari versions in general with a whole number, such as Safari 11 or Safari 12. However, as with the macOS version of Safari, the full version number of mobile Safari can contain periods and sets of numbers that semantically identify minor changes and bug fixes. For example, your computer's version might say Safari 12.01, while your phone might run Safari 12.0.

Because the mobile Safari app is native to iOS, whenever you update iOS, the browser is updated. Often, these updates offer security fixes to keep you safe while browsing, but they can also add new functionality. For example, Safari 12 added features that include an augmented reality model viewer and strong password generator for your iPhone.

Check Safari Version on iPhone

You can check your phone's version of iOS to get a general idea of which version of Safari it runs, although this won't tell you the extended version number of Safari you have. Open your iPhone's Settings app, tap "General" and then "About." The phone's iOS version is listed beside "Version" Pay attention specifically to the number before the decimal point. For example, if your phone runs iOS 12.1, then you have Safari 12. Likewise, if you have iOS 11.4, then you're running Safari 11.

Another way to check the iOS version is to connect your phone to your computer. Open iTunes and select your phone in the list of devices to see the version in the information pane on the right.

Check Safari Version Online

If you'd rather not dig through your iPhone's menus and want to know the extended version number, there's a way to check your Safari version with the help of websites such as Spiderip and WhatIsMyBrowser. Use your phone's Safari app to visit the home page of one of these sites to see information about your version of Safari, your iOS version and other browser details.

Some sites immediately list the browser version on top to make it easy to find. For others, you need to do some extra work to look for a string of text called the "user agent." This string can be long and is separated with forward slashes. Look for the browser version information near the end, where you see a version identified like "12.0 Mobile" followed by text that mentions Safari. This example means you're running Safari 12.0.

These online tools work because they get information from your browser's user agent, which is a string of text identifying your device that is sent in the request made when you visit a website. Some of these tools can inform you if your browser or iOS version is outdated or whether your browser settings can cause some sites not to work properly.

Keep Safari Up to Date

Getting the latest iOS Safari version is as easy as updating your iPhone to the latest version of iOS. If you set your iPhone to install updates automatically, the phone notifies you when an update is ready and prompts you to install it. Otherwise, open the iPhone's Settings app, tap "General" and then select "Software Update." If you see a "Download and Install" button, tap it to start updating your phone's version of iOS.

If you prefer to use a computer and iTunes for the update process, use your iPhone's USB cable to connect the phone to your computer. After you launch iTunes, click the phone's name under "Devices" in the left pane and then click "Check for Update" in the right pane. If there's an update, iTunes prompts you to download and install it.

save / bookmark your tabs because the upgrade will close all your open tabs, with no ability to auto-recover them, not even from a backup. I went as far as apple l2 support and it’s an omission by design. I had bookmarks for all but maybe 4 or 5 that I’d intended to follow up on for research but they’re long opened and will be an intensive search to get back to them.

Does this mean OS Monterey is kaput… no more? what a shame! Monterey was the probably the last real  OS designed specifically for a computer as Ventura and Somona has their flaws and lacks personality.

Yep, Monterey will not be supported after November 2024 (according to apple)

Please help, Safari 6.0.5 doesn't open anymore - Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5

Greetings reader,

I ran into a problem with Safari today. I tried to download an update through a 3rd party host; it seemed quicker at the time but now I really regret it. I'm asking for your help because I don't know how to diagnose the problem. I'm not the most technological person but I do have a few notions. Thanks in advance.

Here's the situation:

I tried to download Safari 6.2.8 Mountain Lion. The system told me that I needed to have at least iOS 10.8. I have 10.7.5.

I tried to open Safari a few times after I installed the update but when that didn't work, I deleted the application in terminal and then dragged a copy of the application from a hard drive.

Safari still wouldn't open, and this time it gave me the following prompt:

I'm not sure what to do next. I don't have a TimeMachine backup. I would like to restore Safari to a version that I can use, or at least, recover the data and bookmarks that I have cached in the application if restoring it isn't possible.

Thank you in advance,

MacBook Pro, iOS 7.0.5

There is no more separate download for Safari, so you will need to reinstall the OS.

Do a backup, preferable 2 separate ones on 2 drives. Boot to the Recovery Volume (command - R on a restart or hold down the option/alt key during a restart and select Recovery Volume). Run Disk Utility Verify/Repair Disk and Repair Permissions until you get no errors. Then re-install the OS.

Thanks for your response, but is that really the only option? I looked up some information earlier today but then moved onto something else. I wonder if the people in the Apple store can do anything... It may be a little obvious but I don't want to go through that whole process, apparently it takes hours.

Note to self: lesson learned...

Thanks again,

You are welcome. If you no longer have Safari on your computer, then you will need to reinstall the OS to get Safari back.
