I tried the new iOS 27 Safari features — here's 3 settings worth using

Apple introduced a trio of handy Safari features in iOS 27 aimed at streamlining everyday browsing. First, the browser can now automatically notify you of price drops or changes on any webpage you specify. To activate this, simply open a page, tap the three-line menu, and select "Notify Me." Next, type the change you're tracking, like a price reduction, and set the checking frequency. The browser will then alert you exactly when the change occurs.

Second, Safari now lets you craft custom browser extensions without searching for third-party apps. From the same menu as the notification tool, tap "Describe an Extension" and type what you want the browser to do in plain English. The browser will generate a custom extension on the spot, whether that's a reading time badge for articles or grayscale mode to reduce eye strain.

Lastly, managing a mountain of open tabs is now easier with Safari's new tab organizer. Open the main tab view, select the three-line button in the top corner, and choose "Organize Tabs." Opt for "Automatically create topics," and the browser will group your tabs into categories using artificial intelligence. This keeps your browsing space clutter-free and organized.
