Jen SimmonsIt’s hard to express how excited I was to get to tell all of you today about what’s in Safari 16.4 beta 1 and iOS & iPadOS 16.4 beta 1 for Home Screen web apps. This represents many, many months of work by some really amazing people, all across Apple. It’s built on foundations that took years to create, especially things like Focus — which let us get the experience of Web Push just right. I am so proud of our team. And feel lucky every day I get to work with them.
Bas van der Ploeg@jensimmons Is there a demo available to test the new Web Push in web apps?

Alessio Maffeis@jensimmons amazing news! 🙏🏻 loosely related question: do you have any plan to allow PWA install on macOS Safari too?
Nikos Maounis@jensimmons kudos to the team for the amazing effort 🤘
Nate@jensimmons great release! PWA Push Notifications means less of a need to collect a customer’s email or phone number just so you can create a seamless end-to-end customer experience.
Alberto Tuba@jensimmons This is great for the web, nice job!
Neave Interactive@jensimmons Fantastic work
samf@jensimmons Huge congrats on the release, and thanks for your (and everyone on the team’s) hard work! Safari has improved tremendously over the last 6-12 months, so great to see.
Josh Ferrara@jensimmons Many thanks to you and the entire team! Can't wait to see the kinds of things this enables.
Steve BarnesSome good stuff in there. Thank you and the team for the work (and the casual communiqués).
Ed Umansky@jensimmons 🎉 Been waiting a long time for this!

@jensimmons genuine game-changer.
Ste Grainer@jensimmons Not gonna lie, even with all the exciting news I’ve seen from WebKit over the last few weeks, this one completely blew me away! Can’t wait to play around with it. Great job, team!
@jensimmons Congrats! It's great to see investment in a more complete experience for web apps on iOS!
Dom Scandinaro@jensimmons it’s an amazing feature Jen! Looking forward to building based on this new capability.

ZS@jensimmons Well done for doing your actual job. Bravo. 🤣
Raphael Mattos@jensimmons I know everyone is happy to see WebPush, I am too and will use it immediately. But I wish I had recorded my face when I saw "Added support for ElementInternals." in the release notes. This is huge for me!
rstevens 🐳💨✅@jensimmons is it just me, or is safari on 16.4 really fast?
@rstevens I'm glad to hear you feel the speed! We are *constantly* working on performance, to insure Safari remains the fastest browser.
@jensimmons heck yeah! i live in safari of every flavor. nothing else compares.
Bill Barnes@rstevens @jensimmons come on everybody now
Slaíne@jensimmons @rstevens I’m sure that warms @donmelton heart to hear the performance focus remains all these years later. I know we certainly appreciate it
