Safari is the second most popular web browser after Google Chrome.

According to the latest survey data conducted by analytics service StatCounter, Safari is being used as the primary web browser on 11.87% of computers worldwide, 0.87% higher than Microsoft Edge (ranked third with 11%), even though it is the default web application on Windows - the world's most popular computer operating system.

In the same period last year, Edge surpassed Safari by 0.1% mainly due to the popularity of Windows 11, a platform that Microsoft invested heavily in with the goal of "covering" the default browser Edge.

Safari web browser gains market share thanks to rising Mac sales

The rise of Safari, the default web browser on macOS systems, reflects the growth of Mac revenue globally in 2022, despite supply constraints. Increased interest in Mac models using Apple's M-series chips pushed revenue of these devices to $11.5 billion in the final quarter of 2022, up $2.5 billion from the same period last year.

In fiscal 2022, Mac computers will bring in total revenue of $40.1 billion for Apple, up $5 billion from 2021. In the fourth quarter of 2022, half of Mac buyers will be first-time users, contributing to a significant increase in market share for Safari.

Google Chrome is still at the top of the list and shows no signs of being replaced anytime soon, with a global market share of 66.13%. Thus, the total market share of the remaining browsers is still lower than what Chrome owns. In fourth place is Mozilla's Firefox with 5.65%. Followed by Opera (3.09%) and IE (0.55%). Notably, IE has been disabled by Microsoft since February 14, 2023, and users will not be able to access this software after that time.
