The company has a more direct incentive to provide you with a browser that works well with other Apple products.Īs a sign of this good faith, Apple regularly introduces new privacy protection measures to Safari.
Apple’s software is mostly free, but only for Apple customers, and is only valuable as much as it makes Apple hardware more attractive to the customer. In contrast to Google, Apple’s business model is primarily based on selling its hardware to you. If that sounds a little Orwellian, Chrome on macOS probably isn’t for you. While you can tweak your Google settings to protect your privacy to some degree, you’ll never be completely safe with a company whose business model is built on obtaining your data. Safari uses the same buttons and symbols as the rest of macOS, which leads to a more seamless experience. Obviously, it’s less than ideal to force a user to learn an entirely separate workflow and user interface when they’re used to one already. Thankfully this is no longer the case, but it was a huge pain for far too long. Chrome used its own notification setup, that didn’t integrate with the Notification Center on a Mac. The old notification system was also a mess. But Chrome didn’t follow this feature until March 2019-half a year later. For example, macOS Mojave introduced Dark Mode in September 2018, which Safari supported out of the gate.
Similarly, most Mac apps have their own preferences window Chrome uses a website in a tab for that.Ĭhrome is also slower to catch up with new macOS features than Safari. For example, most Mac apps close instantly when you hit Cmd + Q Chrome, by default, makes you hold the combo down for a few seconds before it quits (though you can turn that feature off by clicking Chrome in the menu bar and disabling Warn Before Quitting).
