Safari on iOS 16 is packed with new and exciting features that can help developers take their apps to the next level. However, some of these features are still experimental, meaning they may not be fully tested or optimized for production use yet. Despite this, enabling these features in your app can give you a competitive edge by allowing you to offer unique and innovative experiences to your users.
1. Multi-View Tab Switching
Multi-view tab switching is a feature that allows users to view two or more tabs side by side on the same screen. This can be especially useful for users who need to quickly switch between different websites, such as developers who are testing multiple prototypes at once. To enable this feature, go to Settings > Safari > Tabs > Side Tab View.
2. Custom Fonts and Typography
Custom fonts and typography allow users to personalize the look and feel of their browsing experience by choosing from a wide range of font options. This can be especially useful for users who have visual impairments or prefer specific font styles. To enable this feature, go to Settings > Safari > Fonts & Colors > Custom Fonts.
3. Tab Groups
Tab groups are a feature that allows you to group together multiple tabs and organize them into separate categories. This can be especially useful for users who have a lot of tabs open at once, such as researchers or students. To enable this feature, go to Settings > Safari > Tabs > Tab Groups.
4. Split View
Split view is a feature that allows you to split your screen into two separate windows, each running a different app. This can be especially useful for users who need to multitask, such as developers who are working on multiple projects at the same time. To enable this feature, swipe up from the bottom of your screen and tap on the split view icon.
5. Password Manager Integration
Password manager integration allows you to store and manage your passwords directly within Safari. This can be especially useful for users who have a lot of login credentials to remember, such as e-commerce sites or social media accounts. To enable this feature, go to Settings > Passwords > AutoFill & Security > Password Manager Integration.
6. Picture in Picture
Picture in picture is a feature that allows you to minimize a video or image to a small window while still being able to interact with the rest of your screen. This can be especially useful for users who need to multitask, such as students who are watching lectures while taking notes. To enable this feature, tap and hold on any video or image until it enters picture in picture mode.
7. Handoff
Handoff is a feature that allows you to seamlessly transition your browsing session between your iPhone and another Apple device, such as an iPad or MacBook. This can be especially useful for users who need to work on the go, such as remote workers or students. To enable this feature, make sure both devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network and sign in to iCloud on both devices.
8. Voice Control
Voice control is a feature that allows you to control your device using only your voice. This can be especially useful for users with disabilities or those who prefer not to use touch gestures. To enable this feature, go to Settings > Accessibility > Voice Control.
9. Dark Mode
