#MACOS MONTEREY WILL HAVE OLD SAFARI UPDATE#

If you still don't like the dialed back iteration, you can revert to an earlier design in Safari's preferences pane. That has also been dialed back a bit for release on both macOS and iOS. On top of the address and search bar, iOS and macOS had another big change in common: a minimalist streamlining of the interface to make it use less screen space overall. Initially, it was Apple's way or the highway with that change, but Apple added a way to roll back that change by the time iOS 15 went live to the public. The most dramatic change on the iPhone was the relocation of the address and search bar from the top of the screen to the bottom, a tweak designed to make Safari easier to use on the phone one-handed.

The Safari redesign has gone through several changes throughout the recent beta releases on all platforms (and especially on iOS and iPadOS). (It has done that with some prior releases when macOS came after iOS, too.)

Nonetheless, Apple appears to have decided to push the Safari update separately to keep the experience consistent across platforms in the meantime. The updates were timed closely with the release of new iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch models.īut last week's product launch event didn't include Macs, which are expected to get some more focused attention by the end of the year, alongside an announcement about the release date of macOS Monterey.
