How to Download Apple Safari on Mobile and Tablet/iPad?

In the previous article where I have written about on download Apple Safari for computers, I mentioned that Apple is strictly restricting its software business only to Apple devices. A similar approach has also been noticed in the mobile segment as well.

The Apple devices are pre-loaded with Safari browser, but not available for download in Android OS. My friend just bought herself a brand new iPad and needed help with setting it up. She also wanted to install the Safari browser on it. So, she asked for my help.

Here is the screenshot of restoreBin.com opened on the Apple iPad.

In this article, we are going to learn how to download the Safari browser on mobile and iPad devices. Let get started with Safari browser for phones:

Safari App Download for iOS

As mentioned above, the Safari browser is pre-installed on iOS devices. Be it an iPhone or iPod, the Safari is already installed. Hence, there is no way to download or install the Safari app from the App Store. There is no need for the Safari app download on iOS.

However, you can only update when it is available in Software Updates under Settings > General.

Safari App Download for iPadOS

Similar to iOS, the iPadOS has the same limitation. You can neither uninstall nor download the Safari for iPadOS. You may just be able to update the Safari browser from Software updates under General settings. Hence, there is particularly no need for the Safari app download on iPadOS.

Download Apple Safari for Android

Unfortunately, there is no official Safari browser for Android OS. Apple has never developed a Safari browser for Android smartphones. It’s always been that way. I will never expect Apple to build a Safari browser for Android.

If you’re an Android person, then stick to the browser that goes well with Android.

An alternative to Safari for Mobile and Tablets

Here are a few alternatives that you can consider for your mobile phone or tablet device apart from the Safari browser:

• Download Google Chrome on Android
• Download Mozilla Firefox on iPad
• Download Microsoft Edge on Android
• Download Opera Browser on iOS

Bottom Line: Safari App Download

Safari browser is the most compatible for all the devices with iOS. If you have just purchased a new iPhone or iPad and are looking for a Safari app download, worry not! It is already available on your device. All you have to do is update it to the latest version.

The same happened with my friend who was looking for a Safari app download on her new iPad, instead, I helped her update it. I told her how all iOS devices already have the Safari browser.
