The first and foremost change that Apple has made in their new updates is that they want iPhone users to be discouraged from using Google Chrome or any third-party browser. Apple wants to build their own security, privacy, and ecosystem within their devices. This is armful and probably damaging and outcomes for individuals, microscopic and otherwise; it also does not reach to developers and enterprises. Why is this becoming so important, and what will this mean for you?
Privacy and security—Apple's First Importance
Apple has always professed itself to be "Privacy First." Further, since it is built into iOS, user data will be considerably less open to exploitation in its possession.
Google Chrome has other sides, for instance, sustaining Google's advertisement ecosystem that interacts with the user's browsing data and behavior. Consequently, Apple would have an incentive to shrink that data and push for the use of Safari.
Performance and battery life favor Safari
The iPhone's Safari browser is built on the WebKit engine optimally designed for Apple hardware. So, it offers some benefits in terms of faster loading of web pages, lesser battery drain, and the device getting heated up less.
Unfortunately, everything mentioned above is not found in Chrome or any other browser that might want to offer performance on iOS while keeping to WebKit. For Apple, because Safari gives the fastest experience, it should be the primary browser in the minds of users.
Blocks Tracking and Advanced Privacy Features
There is Intelligent Tracking Prevention (ITP) in Safari. This feature simply prevents any spying from third parties or tracking activities. Thus, certainly, no data of yours leaks to some unwanted company.
Chrome has private browsing, but by default, it is high on data collection.
The New Updates from iOS Build The Power of Safari
Apple never fails to present new features in Safari at every major upgradation of iOS, like -
* Advanced password exposure
* Quicker handling of tabs
* Functioning on the device
* Protocol fortification-enhanced tracking
All these improvements make Safari, according to Apple, their ‘Most Secure and Efficient’ browser.
Why does it matter?
If you are an iPhone user, using Safari is much more rational because it provides the fastest browsing experience possible along with the protection of your data, battery, and less ad tracking. Chrome is still a pretty solid browser but certainly not as optimized for the iPhone as Safari is.
Conclusion
Thus, it can be said that Apple is persuading iPhone users towards making Safari their most visited browser. Safari is really fast, safe, and builds an environment very strong and secure for the entire Apple ecosystem. Hence, adopting this brand will ensure a terrific boost in the journey taken by an iPhone user.
