Apple Releases Safari Technology Preview 238 With Bug Fixes and Performance Improvements

Apple today released a new update for Safari Technology Preview, the experimental browser that was first introduced in March 2016. Apple designed ‌Safari Technology Preview‌ to allow users to test features that are planned for future release versions of the Safari browser.

Safari Technology Preview Updated Feature 1
‌Safari Technology Preview‌ 238 includes fixes and updates for Animations, CSS, Editing, Forms, Networking, Rendering, Scrolling, SVG, Web API, Web Inspector, WebAssembly, and WebRTC.

The current ‌Safari Technology Preview‌ release is compatible with machines running macOS Sequoia and macOS Tahoe, the newest version of macOS.

The ‌Safari Technology Preview‌ update is available through the Software Update mechanism in System Preferences or System Settings to anyone who has downloaded the browser from Apple's website. Complete release notes for the update are available on the Safari Technology Preview website.

Apple's aim with ‌Safari Technology Preview‌ is to gather feedback from developers and users on its browser development process. ‌Safari Technology Preview‌ can run side-by-side with the existing Safari browser and while it is designed for developers, it does not require a developer account to download and use.

Could you remind me where I can found the Private Relay setting? 🤔
Sure.

Settings > click on your Apple account (your name) on the top > iCloud > Private Relay.

I don't like to use Chrome and Firefox and Safari always worked to me but I've been having a lot of problems with Safari since release 26. These bugs only happen with full screen mode on external monitor:

- Some tabs just stop working showing an empty background. Refreshing doesn't work you need to type the address again.
- Putting a video on full screen and moving to the mail laptop screen doesn't adjust the aspect ratio of the window so controls are out of screen.
- Sometimes the ctrl+f search bar doesn't appear.
