Apple brings 3 big new features to Safari on iPhone, iPad, & Mac in initial 27.3 beta

Apple has released the initial developer betas of version 27.3 for Safari on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, bringing three significant new features. The first addition is vertical tabs, which allow for quick scanning of tab titles and save space, especially on iPhone Duo. Users can enable vertical tabs through the View menu on Mac and iPad or within Safari settings on iPhone.

Another new feature is Adaptive Dark Mode, which automatically adjusts website appearances based on the time of day and individual site requirements. Using Apple Intelligence, this feature analyzes each site visited, prompting users to enable it for sites lacking dark mode support. Finally, Siri AI receives enhanced support in Safari, providing deeper context and expanded controls across tabs and content.

Users can now ask Siri AI questions about the page, perform actions like grouping tabs, closing specific tab sets, or clearing browsing history for a given timeframe. These features are currently in beta and are expected to be integrated into the upcoming iOS 27.3, macOS 27.3, and iPadOS 27.3 updates, with Apple Intelligence devices required for Siri AI functionality.
