Efficient usage that safari wants to remember!
I’ve been an iPhone user for quite some time, but I never knew that the buttons in Safari had a long press feature. “Tab move by swiping left and right on the tab bar” introduced in the tweet was barely discovered by myself recently, but other functions are honestly new to me.
I tried all the features that I could do with a long press on my iPhone, but when I actually used it, it was quite convenient.
Before going to bed, even when visiting the usual summary site, I used to hit the back button of the browser repeatedly to return to the article list page, but if you use this long press function, you can quickly go to the corresponding page. You can fly. In addition, if you want to see a few videos you saw before, after you’ve run through some videos on YouTube, you can quickly go back and be stress-free.
Press and hold the “Back Button” and you’ll be in no time! (The image is provided by “Ratto (@ ratracer1985)”) * Some of the images are processed by the editorial department.
From the Twitter users who saw this tweet, various comments were sent to the reply column, such as “Koyu Tech, I want to know more” and “I only knew ①②, so I will use it immediately”. Has been.
“Safari” has other useful functions!
Since the update to iOS 15, “Safari” has been able to use extended functions, but this time, in addition to the functions introduced in the tweet, we are introducing two small tricks of “Safari” that can be used immediately. like this.
The first is how to revive when you accidentally close the tab you still want to see. Impatient people like me often inadvertently swipe across tabs in a row without thinking about it.
As a method of revival, first tap the icon with two □ at the bottom right. Then, the “+” button will appear at the bottom left of the tab list, so press and hold it to see the list of recently closed tabs. It will be displayed. From here, you can reopen the tab you deleted.

The second method is to get rid of annoying ads. When I’m patrolling only suspicious sites like the author, sometimes the screen hits a site full of advertisements. In such a case, you can use the “reader display” function to hide the text and image parts other than those related to the article.
Tap the “Ah” part at the bottom right of the screen and select “Hide Reader”. Then, all the annoying advertisements will disappear and only the letters will be easier to see, so it is recommended. Not all websites support hiding, but it’s worth remembering.
What does “Safari” mean?
The web browser “Safari” is easy to use and has various functions. In Swahili, “safari” means “journey.” Why did you name your web browser “Safari”?
This is just my imagination, as the origin isn’t elaborated, but maybe Steve Jobs chose this name because he thought of users as travelers sailing the oceans of the Internet. Maybe. If so, it’s like traveling because we can access websites around the world through Safari.
I hope that all iPhone users will master the efficient use of “Safari” introduced today and continue to enjoy a comfortable Internet trip.
