We are currently supporting an Apple Pay-enabled card program as an issuer/issuer processor and have successfully completed In-App Push Provisioning integration within our iOS application. The in-app flow is fully operational, including issuer-side cryptographic exchange and Mastercard MDES network tokenization.
We are now looking to extend this integration to support Apple Pay Web Push Provisioning, allowing cardholders to add eligible cards to Apple Wallet directly from our web application.
We would appreciate guidance on:
-The process for enrolling in Apple Business Register (if required)
-Enabling Web Push Provisioning for an issuer profile
Required entitlements or provisioning certificates
Any additional onboarding steps specific to issuer-level Web provisioning
We understand that Web Push Provisioning requires issuer-level enablement beyond standard Apple Pay on the Web, and we would like clarification on the correct path to activate this capability.
Thank you in advance for your guidance.

Summary:
We are facing a serious issue on iPhone where multiple passkey authentication problems occur when accessing passkey-enabled login pages via shortcuts placed on the iPhone Home Screen. These issues may also occur when opening the same pages directly in a standard browser window. However, launching the login pages from a Home Screen shortcut appears to increase the likelihood of encountering these issues.
Affected Services (examples, not exhaustive):
Amazon
GitHub
Adobe
Observed Issues:
Issue 1: A passkey authentication dialog/popup shows two times without any user operation:
What happens due to this issue:
Login does not complete after the first passkey authentication.
A second passkey authentication UI automatically appears.
Completing or canceling the second authentication allows the login to proceed.
Issue 2: Login remains stuck until the user manually invokes passkey again
What happens due to this issue:
The login page does not advance after the first authentication.
The user must tap the ID/username field again to manually trigger the passkey UI.
Completing the second authentication enables login.
Issue 3: Automatic second authentication occurs, but login still fails
What happens due to this issue:
A second automatic authentication UI appears.
Login still does not complete.
Tapping the ID field no longer opens the passkey UI; instead, the password auto-fill panel appears.
Passkey login becomes impossible.
Observed reproduction steps (not guaranteed but most consistently observed):
On iPhone, navigate to a passkey-enabled login page (e.g., Amazon, GitHub, Adobe) using a browser.
Create a shortcut from the browser's share menu and place it on the Home Screen.
Launch the login page from the Home Screen shortcut.
Tap the ID/username field to invoke the passkey prompt.
Complete passkey authentication.
→ One of the issues described above occurs.

Our app connects to the headend to get a IDP login URL for each connection session, for example: “https://myvpn.ocwa.com/+CSCOE+/saml/sp/login?ctx=3627097090&acsamlcap=v2” and then open embedded webview to load the page. (Note: the value of ctx is session token which changes every time). Quite often the webview shows blank white screen. After user cancel the connection and re-connect, the 2nd time webview loads the content successfully.
The working case logs shows:
didReceiveAuthenticationChallenge is called
decidePolicyForNavigationAction is called twice
didReceiveAuthenticationChallenge is called
decidePolicyForNavigationResponse is called
didReceiveAuthenticationChallenge is called
But the failure case shows:
Filed to terminate process: Error Domain=com.apple.extensionKit.errorDomain Code=18 "(null)" UserInfo={NSUnderlyingError=0x11461c240 {Error Domain=RBSRequestErrorDomain Code=3 "No such process found" UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=No such process found}}}

If we stop calling evaluateJavaScript code to get userAgent, the blank page happens less frequently. Below is the code we put in makeUIView():
func makeUIView(context: Context) -> WKWebView
{
if let url = URL(string: self.myUrl)
{
let request = URLRequest(url: url)
webview.evaluateJavaScript("navigator.userAgent")
{
result, error in
if let error = error
{
NSLog("evaluateJavaScript Error: \(error)")
}
else
{
let agent = result as! String + " " + self.myUserAgent
webview.customUserAgent = agent
webview.load(request)
}
}
}
return self.webview
}
Found some posts saying call evaluateJavaScript only after WKWebView has finished loading its content. However, it will block us to send the userAgent info via HTTP request. And I don’t think it is the root cause since the problem still occurs with less frequency.
There is no problem to load same web page on Windows desktop and Android devices. The problem only occurs on iOS and macOS which both use WKWebview APIs.
Is there a bug in WKWebview?
Thanks,

I am using the native SwiftUI WebView and WebPage APIs (iOS 26+) and would like to implement file download functionality using the native SwiftUI WebView. However, I have not been able to find any APIs equivalent to WKDownload.
In WKWebView, the WKDownload API can be used to handle downloads. I am looking for a similar API or recommended approach in the native SwiftUI WebView that would allow downloading files.
If anyone has guidance or suggestions on how to implement this, I would appreciate your help.
Based on the "Build immersive web experiences with WebXR"-Video for visionOS there is no way to disable the consent prompts for entering an immersive experience or consent hand-tracking. For the microphone it's possible to "greenlight" specific websites for mic input, which works great.
I'd welcome it, if it were possible to add specific websites in the settings, in which those consent dialogs aren't shown each time.
In my opinion, the user interaction through a button that launches the experience would be sufficient to not disorient.
Hello everyone,
I am currently working on integrating a WebView into my macOS application, intended to allow users to browse tutorial webpages directly within the app.
Although I’ve followed an example that appears syntactically correct, the WebView does not render any webpage content.
Below is a code snippet for reference:
import SwiftUI
import WebKit
struct HelpWebView: View {
@State private var toggle = false
@State private var page = WebPage()
private var url: URL {
toggle
? URL(string: "https://www.webkit.org")!
: URL(string: "https://www.swift.org")!
}
var body: some View {
WebView(page)
.onAppear {
page.load(URLRequest(url: url))
}
.onChange(of: toggle) {
page.load(URLRequest(url: url))
}
.toolbar {
Button("Reload", systemImage: "arrow.clockwise") {
toggle.toggle()
}
}
}
}
I would greatly appreciate any insights or suggestions on what might be causing this issue or how to resolve it.
Thank you in advance for your help!
Seeing an issue in some versions of Safari (16.6, 18.3, 18.5) where an APNG converted to AVIF does not support transparency. Instead of a transparent background, the background is filled with black.
Topic:
Safari & Web
SubTopic:
General
It seems that in iOS 18.5+ built with Xcode 16.4+, there has been a breaking change since 18.4 with 16.3 within WebKit and how the navigationAction.sourceFrame property is initialized when implementing the decidePolicy delegate method.
The flow goes:
Implement a WKNavigationActionDelegate with decidePolicy
Call WKWebView.loadHTMLString("some-string", baseURL: nil)
Upon loading the HTML content, read the value of navigationAction.sourceFrame within the decidePolicy method of the WKNavigationActionDelegate
On iOS 18.4 (and below) with Xcode 16.3 (and below);
navigationAction.sourceFrame is <uninitialized>
On iOS 18.5+ with Xcode 16.4+:
navigationAction.sourceFrame is already initialized and is equal to navigationAction.targetFrame
It appears that this change was made between minor versions of Xcode and is unexpected behavior of a minor version. Not only was this not called out in the release notes for Xcode 16.4 and iOS 18.5, but it's technically also a breaking change to the WebKit API.
Can we get insight on why this change was made and what Apple's policy is on breaking changes between minor versions of Xcode/iOS?
Since iOS 18.1 launched as a beta, we've been getting reports from end users on iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max specifically. They're reporting that our WebView is unable to load our local HTML content. I'm curious if anyone else has had their app or users run into this issue?
So far I've tried installing the most recent XCode Beta 16B5014f and installed an 18.1 emulator, but our app worked fine. It's also working fine on all my real devices, but we don't have a 15 Pro to test on. I'm curious if this is related to the processor on these devices and how they are intended to support Apple's new AI coming in 18.1.
Typically, you can use the @@extension_id special string to reference the absolute path into the bundled resources of an extension, such as an image or a custom font, in a CSS file.
However, this broke with Safari 18.
Consider this section in a popup.css file:
.card-icon {
height: 16px;
width: 20px;
background-image: url(safari-web-extension://__MSG_@@extension_id__/images/card.svg);
background-size: 20px 16px;
}
In Safari 17.4, once loaded in the browser, @@extension_id is replaced with E8BEA491-9B80-45DB-8B20-3E586473BD47, and the background-image reads as so:
background-image: url(safari-web-extension://E8BEA491-9B80-45DB-8B20-3E586473BD47/images/card.svg);
But as of Safari 18, the @@extension_id just collapses to an empty string, and the background-image reads as so:
background-image: url(safari-web-extension:///images/card.svg);
and the svg fails to load with the following error: "Failed to load resource: You do not have permission to access the requested resource."
This is a regression, does to match the behavior of the other major browsers, and should be fixed.

Hello,
In iOS 26 beta, we are seeing an unexpected behavior when using SwiftUI WebView (or a custom WKWebView via UIViewRepresentable).
When an alert is presented above the WebView, the WebView immediately reloads to its initial page. The alert itself also disappears instantly, making it impossible for the user to interact with it.
This issue occurs both with the new SwiftUI WebView / WebPage API and with a wrapped WKWebView. The problem was not present in previous iOS versions (iOS 17/18).
Steps to reproduce:
Create a SwiftUI view with a WebView (pointing to any URL).
Add a toolbar button that toggles a SwiftUI alert.
Run the app on iOS 26 beta.
Tap the button to trigger the alert.
Expected behavior:
The WebView should remain as-is, and the alert should stay visible until the user dismisses it.
Actual behavior:
As soon as the alert appears, the WebView reloads and resets to the initial page. The alert disappears immediately.
Minimal Example:
struct ContentView: View {
@State private var showAlert = false
var body: some View {
NavigationStack {
WebView(URL(string: "https://apple.com")!)
.toolbar {
ToolbarItem(placement: .topBarTrailing) {
Button("Close") {
showAlert = true
}
}
}
.alert("Confirm close?", isPresented: $showAlert) {
Button("Cancel", role: .cancel) {}
Button("Close", role: .destructive) {}
}
}
}
}
I'm using Xcode Version 26.0 beta 7

Our app, VitalSource Bookshelf, is an EPUB reader that uses a WKWebView to display book content.
The EPUB content format is XHTML and uses namespaces (for the epub:type declaration).
On beta 4, the webkit process repeatedly crashes when loading our content. The crash appears to be in the XML parser. Here's what's at the top of the stack trace:

10 WebCore 0x1909521e4 WebCore::CachedRawResource::notifyClientsDataWasReceived(WebCore::SharedBuffer const&) + 268
I was able to reproduce this in Safari on beta 4 just by opening the following trivial xhtml file from the file system - it does the same thing it does in our app, which is reloads and crashes several times, followed by the "A problem repeatedly occurred with..." error message.

I've also filed a feedback. But posting here just to raise the visibility - this is critical for us. I think it was introduced in beta 4; that's at least when we first noticed it. It was working in the earlier betas, I just don't remember if I tried beta 3 or not.
It happens on iOS, macOS, and iPadOS.
This has never been a problem in any earlier release of macOS / iOS.

It seems fetch() does not include credentials (cookie) even when credentials: include is used and Safari extension has host_permissions for that domain when using from a non-default Safari profile.
It includes credentials (cookie) when using from the default profile (which has the default name Personal).
Is there anyone who has this problem?
I try to request in popup.js like this:
const response = await fetch(
url,
{
method: 'GET',
mode: 'cors',
credentials: 'include',
referrerPolicy: 'no-referrer',
}
);
and it does not include the credentials (cookie) from host_permissions.
I already posted https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/764279, and opened feedback assistant (FB15307169).
But it is still not fixed yet. (macOS 15.4 beta 3)
I hope this is fixed soon.
After App uses Network.framework PrivacyContext Api, dns has been encrypted, that is good.
But when using wkwebview to load web page, wireshark captures normal dns request sent by wkwebview.
Does wkwebview use DoH to resolve domain? if can, how to config params?
If can not, is there anyway to stop wkwebview sending normal dns, such as local proxy.
TLDR: I’m searching for a possibility to allow the usage of passkeys and hardware keys for any website in a wkwebview

Hi, I couldn’t really find documentation or forums posts on how to implement Webauthn for signin or hardware security keys for a second factor. Or rather where those events are triggered to be handled. In Safari you have that popover, that lets you either authenticate through Passwords or with a security key.
When I visit webauthn.io for testing and click either register or authenticate I get
Told not to present authorization sheet: Error Domain=com.apple.AuthenticationServicesCore.AuthorizationError Code=1 "(null)"
ASAuthorizationController credential request failed with error: Error Domain=com.apple.AuthenticationServices.AuthorizationError Code=1004 "(null)"
If I add
func webView(_ webView: WKWebView, didReceive challenge: URLAuthenticationChallenge, completionHandler: @escaping @MainActor (URLSession.AuthChallengeDisposition, URLCredential?) -> Void)
and
func webView(_ webView: WKWebView, authenticationChallenge challenge: URLAuthenticationChallenge, shouldAllowDeprecatedTLS decisionHandler: @escaping @MainActor (Bool) -> Void)
it doesn’t seem to change anything.
I found something about the ASWebAuthenticationSessionWebBrowserSupported entitlement, but by my understanding this is used so a browser can get opened upon some other app calling a ASWebAuthenticationSession.
Has anyone some guidance for me? I feel like webauthn and yubikey support are important security measures for our users.

My iOS app uses a WKWebView with a WKUIDelegate method (webView:createWebViewWithConfiguration:forNavigationAction:windowFeatures:) to handle popup windows. This works for most cases, but during OAuth flows on certain sites (e.g., canva.com), the popup WKWebView attempts to send results back to the main WKWebView using JavaScript like window.opener.postMessage(...). However, window.opener is always null in the popup, preventing the message from being posted and blocking login completion.I've researched this and found suggestions that it's by design, as WKWebView instances are isolated for security reasons. Has anyone encountered this and found a reliable workaround (e.g., bridging communication between the main and popup WKWebViews without relying on window.opener)?
Hello WebKit Team,
I’m writing to ask if iOS provides a native way to intercept AJAX (XMLHttpRequest or fetch) calls inside WKWebView.
On Android, this is handled via:
shouldInterceptRequest(WebView view, WebResourceRequest request)
but iOS currently seems to have no equivalent.
We’ve tried:
WKURLSchemeHandler → works only for custom schemes
URLProtocol with WKProcessPool → unreliable for AJAX in WebView
JavaScript injection → partial and unofficial
Could you please clarify:
Is there a recommended native approach to intercept AJAX requests?
If not supported, is it planned for future releases?
Any official workaround or guidance?
This is critical for debugging, analytics, and compliance in hybrid apps.
在 iOS 平台使用 WKWebView 通过file://协议加载本地 HTML 文件时,存储在localStorage中的数据会在 App 后台切换、进程重启后偶尔丢失;但相同代码在安卓 / 鸿蒙平台无此问题。
现在的文档
仅明确了「默认数据存储(defaultDataStore)可将网站数据持久化到磁盘,非持久化存储(nonPersistent)仅存内存」的基础规则;
未提及「file://协议内容即使使用默认持久化存储,也会被归为临时内存存储」这一关键场景限制;
仅在WKURLSchemeHandler关联说明中隐含「自定义 URL 协议可处理 WebKit 原生不支持的 URL 方案」,但未直接关联file://的存储问题。
我找不到如何处理这个问题的官方文档,仅仅有其他的博客说需要增加http/https加载就没有这个问题。
请提供给我官方文档或者官方回复 关于出现这种file:/加载html出现问题的处理办法

Hi all,
Managing Safari usage in an enterprise environment and I’m looking for ways to disable or restrict the QUIC protocol to enforce network-level security policies (e.g., content filtering).
Does Safari offer any settings to disable QUIC, or is there a known workaround to prevent Safari from using it?
Appreciate any insights or guidance.
