Consistente como un reloj, Apple lanzará la única actualización de Safari para el año este otoño cuando lance su nueva versión de macOS, también conocida como "Monterey".
Mac users can now preview this timeline by grabbing a copy of the preview that Apple just made available for Safari 15, which runs on the still-current operating system, "Big Sur." While the makers of the other browsers that dominate the web update every few weeks, Google and Microsoft will start this pace this fall with their Chrome and Edge browsers, while Mozilla's Firefox is already on this schedule, Apple is taking its time. Really take your time. This means that Apple packs more new stuff into its annual Safari update than Google, Microsoft, or Mozilla packs into half a dozen updates.
This is Tab-ville, Jake
Among the most notable changes in Safari, several are directly or indirectly related to tabs. Unsurprisingly, tabs are still one of the few user interface (UI) elements left standing after the minimalism rush sanded down, removed, and cleaned up nearly every other Chrome element around the content of the tab. the active page. On top of Safari's UI changes: a compressed toolbar with fewer visible controls. Safari 15 has a toolbar at the top of the frame that combines the address bar with the tab bar, unifying everything into one "row" so to speak. The tabs themselves have more rounded corners, and the active tab is much more visible due to its darker color. (In Safari 14, it was difficult, if not impossible, to tell which tab represented the active page you were viewing.) The merged tab / address bar means that the page content has a bit more vertical space, offset by a reduction in the horizontal capacity of your tabs. Active tab and address bar share space: Clicking on an inactive tab not only activates it, but exposes the address bar for entering a URL or search string, which may not be an interesting exchange, depending on how many tabs a user likes to leave open. .

Apple Safari 15 compresses chrome over content into a single tabbed line and address bar. Click on a tab and it will expand to enter URLs or search strings. Computerworld predicts that users will either hate the Unified Bar or like its economy. Apple is betting on the latter, repeatedly stating at its global developer conference that the layout would extend content "to all edges of the window." We are not so sure. Adding to the new: Apple has matched the color of the top of Safari's frame to the underlying website, or if this hasn't been set by the designer, then it's an important choice on the part of the browser. More of Apple's "all edges" philosophy this time around the update cycle, the effect sometimes looks as if the top area of the frame has become semi-transparent. It can be distracting and raise questions about Apple's design choices.
Even more tabs
Safari 15 also added tab groups, a feature that others, especially Chrome, have already implemented. Tab groups are, well, just that: a way to collect multiple tabs to separate them from the straw that bloats the bar at the top. In Safari, this separation is not left to tab colors or a row under grouped tabs (Chrome uses these), but instead physically isolates the collection from the left sidebar. Grouped tabs disappear from the browser's tab bar; to view them, the user must click on the group name in the sidebar. A button next to the group name displays thumbnails of the tabs in that group.

Apple Sidebar is the repository for Safari's new tab groups. Tabs in a group can be displayed as thumbnails. Banning from the sidebar is both a blessing and a curse. On the plus side, setting groups aside more clearly marks them off limits for today's brainless surfing. But it also means that they are less convenient, since you have to open the sidebar, find the desired group and click on it. Safari's approach will appeal to those who want to group a lot of tabs together. (In Computerworld's quick tests on Safari 15 in Big Sur, tab groups, and their tabs, did not reappear after restarting the browser, unlike unlinked tabs. Fortunately, the Reopen all windows since last session command in the History menu revives them .) Safari Technology Preview, currently at version 126, can be downloaded for macOS 11, Big Sur, from Apple's developer website.
