macOS Safari是否使用与iOS Safari相同的WebKit版本（假设macOS和iOS Safari的版本相同）？

Question

For example, does macOS Safari 10.2 use the same version of WebKit as iOS Safari 10.2?

I know that the WebKit revision number included in a release of Safari isn't publicly available , but if there's a WebKit bug that I know is fixed in macOS Safari 10.2 can I also assume that it's fixed in iOS Safari 10.2?

Answer 1

The answer is no, you cannot assume they are using the same version. Maybe they sometimes match up but thats not a guarantee.

Source: I checked wikipedia for the OS X version of Safari https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safari_version_history agains my iPads/iPhones versions. They don't match up at all.

• iOS 10.2.1 - Safari 10.0 - WebKit 602.4.6
• iOS 8.1.3 - Safari 8.0 - WebKit 600.1.4

Even if they would, don't you think you should support all sorts of browsers and versions?
