A bit of history
The Safari browser has not always been part of the Apple operating system. Until 2003, they were installed, unloved by many even now Internet Explorer. But when the contract with Microsoft ended, Apple had to start developing its own solution. On January 7, 2013, the newest Safari browser was announced.
Safari quickly gained a huge army of users among the Mac system, after which Steve Jobs decided it was time to share it with Windows users. 4 years after the announcement, users of XP and Vista systems were able to download and install the Safari 3.0 browser on their computers. This version was extremely unstable due to shortcomings and bugs, but this did not prevent it from gaining a fairly large audience.
Advantages of Safari
Safari launches quite compactly, not occupying the entire screen area. The window automatically resizes to fit the content of web pages.
Like many other browsers, Safari can work with multiple tabs simultaneously and can search directly from the address bar. Synchronization of address books from systems is also supported MacOS and Windows.
Especially for those who want to spend time on the Internet anonymously, the function of private web browsing has been implemented, during which cookies are not saved, browsing history is automatically erased, and data from forms on the pages is not remembered. This way, no one will notice that you have recently used the Internet.
Many users will appreciate the presence of an RSS news aggregator in the browser, as well as the scaling of the areas into which text is entered. Of course, there is a check of the entered text for errors.
Disadvantages of Safari
Like any browser, in addition to its advantages, Safari also has disadvantages that will significantly spoil the experience for many users.
Most often, Safari is criticized for the fact that pages that are optimized for Firefox and Internet Explorer do not always open adequately. Many users who are accustomed to the high-speed operation of programs will note that Safari takes a little time to launch. Also, this browser will not be able to copy the contents of the entire web page. Safari is the browser of choice for Apple product users. The disadvantages are seen primarily by people who do not use devices with the iOS platform.
