It is, in fact, Safari. As another commentor noted, it's an instance of Safari Webview, not just webkit. The only thing you control when developing third-party apps is the UI/UX.


> an instance of Safari Webview,

there is no "Safari Webview" -- GP is being pedantic but he is right here. WKWebView is not Safari, anymore than Chrome was Safari before it forked off into using Blink. WebKit != Safari


Chrome had its own build of WebKit with custom patches even before Blink - in no way comparable to embedding Apples build made for Safari.


Obviously, but I don’t see what that has to do with my comment? Browser engines are still not the same thing as browsers.
