Safari is an internet browser that allows you to access the internet and all applicable websites. There are many browsers that are available for download, but Safari happens to be one of the most popular. It has some unique benefits and is a surprisingly sophisticated browser that many people love.

Main Features

Safari is a browser that you'll need to use to access websites. On the surface this looks like nearly every other popular browser. The user interface is simple and doesn't get in the way. You can easily enter websites, run searches through search engines and access both your history and bookmarks.

There are some unique features as well. For example, Safari uses a Nitro Engine that loads websites faster than many other browsers. This loads the easiest elements first so that the website quickly comes up on your device. Safari also has many customization options in the background. This allows you to make changes so that your browser experience is exactly what you want it to be.

Surprisingly Sophisticated

Many people think that Safari isn't that sophisticated because the user interface is in the background. If you never check the tools and features, then Safari seems like a very simple browser. This all changes once you look into the background.

Safari was one of the first browsers to support HTML5. This means that the browser is frequently updated to keep up with new coding and programming languages. It also has very strong privacy features that many people will love. While not quite as good as having a virtual private network, or VPN, this can be good for those who want a measure of privacy while they browse.

Enhanced Battery Life

Many people know that browsing the internet uses up battery life. The processor has to run to load websites and your screen stays on the whole time. What you may not know is that each browser impacts your battery life differently. Some browsers really chew through your battery life.

Safari is very lightweight in this regard. You will notice that your battery life won't be as affected as when you're using other browsers. This ensures that you can browse longer without your phone dying as quickly.

Some System Bias

Safari is a versatile browser that can be used by nearly every system. While it can be installed on nearly any device or computer, there is some system bias as Safari has more features available to Apple users. That being said, other users can still access the vast majority of tools and features.

  • Conserves your battery life so that your device stays alive longer
  • Highly sophisticated with a large array of tools and features
