About Safari

Safari is a popular web browser developed and maintained by the Apple Inc., and available for macOS, iOS, and iPadOS. It succeeded Internet Explorer for Mac as the default web browser for Macintosh computers. Yup, you got that right! Earlier macOS used to have Internet Explorer, but Safari changed that.

The Safari browser is considered to be the best way to experience the Internet through an Apple devices. It brings robust customisation options, powerful privacy protections, and industry-leading battery life—so you can browse whenever and however you like. And no browser is faster than Safari.
