Safari Browser Extension Development

Safari extensions are different from Chromium-only workflows: Safari Web Extensions ship inside a native app wrapper, are built and signed with Xcode, and are distributed through App Store Connect on macOS and iOS. We help you design, implement, and ship extensions that follow Apple’s model and perform well on WebKit.

Our Safari Development Services

Comprehensive development services tailored to your business needs

Safari Web Extension architecture

Structure extension logic with web technologies inside a Safari Web Extension target, wired to a macOS or iOS app host with clear separation between native shell and web content.

Xcode, signing & entitlements

Configure Xcode projects, capabilities, entitlements, and team signing so your extension builds cleanly and passes App Store review requirements.

App Store Connect & distribution

Prepare listings, versioning, and submission assets for macOS and iOS Safari extensions, aligned with Apple’s guidelines for extension apps.

Popovers, toolbars & options UI

Build toolbar items, popovers, and options experiences that feel native to Safari while keeping your UI maintainable and accessible.

Cross-browser porting (where it fits)

Port or share logic with Chrome- or Firefox-oriented MV3 extensions where APIs align, and isolate Safari-specific behavior behind clear boundaries.

Permissions, privacy & review readiness

Minimize host permissions, document usage, and harden messaging between native code and the web extension for better privacy posture and fewer review surprises.

Why Choose Safari?

Discover the advantages of our development approach

Apple-native delivery

We work in the model Apple expects: native host app plus Safari Web Extension, ready for TestFlight and App Store distribution.

WebKit-first engineering

We respect WebKit capabilities and limits — no “Chrome-only” assumptions that break on Safari.

Clear upgrade path

Documentation and structure so your team can ship updates as Safari and Xcode evolve.

Security-conscious design

Thoughtful use of native messaging, storage, and permissions to keep user data safe.

Our Development Process

A proven methodology that ensures successful project delivery

01

Scope & platform plan

Define macOS vs iOS targets, required capabilities, and parity with other browsers if needed.

02

Build & integrate

Implement the web extension and wire it to the Xcode host with correct entitlements.

03

Test on Safari

Exercise popovers, content scripts, and native bridges across supported OS versions.

04

Ship & iterate

Submit via App Store Connect and support post-launch updates and reviews.
