Try These 3 iOS 27 Safari Settings to Get More Out of Apple’s Browser

尝试这 3 个 iOS 27 Safari 设置,充分利用苹果浏览器的强大功能

At Apple’s recent hardware event, the software powering its foldable iPhone Duo stood out, with translucent Liquid Glass effects and vertically stacked icons. But you don’t need to snatch a folding smartphone to reap the benefits of Apple’s iOS 27 updates. 在苹果最近的硬件发布会上,驱动其折叠屏手机 iPhone Duo 的软件脱颖而出,带来了半透明的“液态玻璃”(Liquid Glass)效果和垂直堆叠的图标。但你无需购买折叠屏手机,也能享受到 iOS 27 更新带来的红利。

When iOS 27 leaves beta on Monday, Siri AI’s standalone app and smartphone search integration will likely be the most immediately obvious change for many iPhone users. But it’s worth digging even deeper to uncover helpful additions to key apps, like Apple’s Safari browser, as well as revamps to underutilized apps, like Shortcuts. 当 iOS 27 在周一结束测试版阶段时,Siri AI 的独立应用及其与手机搜索的整合,很可能是许多 iPhone 用户最直观的感受。但值得深入挖掘的是,苹果还为 Safari 浏览器等关键应用增加了实用功能,并对“快捷指令”(Shortcuts)等利用率较低的应用进行了改进。

The version of Safari available in iOS 27 looks fairly similar to the last iteration, with a few key updates tucked away in the settings. These Safari features are powered by Apple Intelligence, which requires an iPhone 15 Pro or newer (they’re also available on iPadOS 27 and macOS 27). iOS 27 中的 Safari 版本看起来与上一代差别不大,但设置中隐藏了一些关键更新。这些 Safari 功能由 Apple Intelligence 提供支持,需要 iPhone 15 Pro 或更新机型(iPadOS 27 和 macOS 27 也支持这些功能)。

Notify Me

“通知我”(Notify Me)

If you’re shopping online and want a quick price-drop notification, you can use the “Notify Me” feature to scan a webpage on a certain cadence and look for changes. First, head to the page you want to track and tap the three-lined hamburger menu icon in the top right corner of Safari. About halfway down, you’ll see this option listed. 如果你在网上购物并希望获得及时的降价通知,可以使用“通知我”功能,按特定频率扫描网页并监测变化。首先,进入你想追踪的页面,点击 Safari 右上角的三横线菜单图标。在菜单中部,你就能看到这个选项。

“Safari can let you know when a website updates the content you’re interested in,” reads the feature’s description. Here you’ll find an open text box where you can describe what change in content you want Safari to scan for, as well as how often you want it to check. 该功能的描述写道:“当网站更新了你感兴趣的内容时,Safari 可以通知你。”在这里,你会看到一个文本框,你可以在其中描述希望 Safari 扫描的内容变化,以及希望它检查的频率。

For example, my couch is broken, so I’ve been eyeing a few different replacement options. I have two final contenders from CB2, but both are out of my price range. So, I set up a “Notify Me” for Safari to scan the pages each day for a significant discount. Whichever one goes on sale first will likely be what I decide to get, and now I don’t have to refresh the pages manually every day. 例如,我的沙发坏了,所以我一直在物色几个替代品。我在 CB2 看中了两个候选款式,但都超出了我的预算。因此,我设置了 Safari 的“通知我”功能,每天扫描这些页面以监测大幅折扣。哪一个先打折,我可能就会买哪一个,现在我再也不用每天手动刷新页面了。

While many other browsers have similar shopping features, like the price-tracking bell in Google Chrome, I appreciate how this feature stretches beyond just buying stuff. You can also use Safari to scan for ticket drops, privacy policy changes, and other content updates. 虽然许多其他浏览器也有类似的购物功能(如 Google Chrome 中的价格追踪铃铛),但我很欣赏这个功能不仅限于购物。你还可以用它来扫描票务发布、隐私政策变更以及其他内容更新。

Describe an Extension

“描述扩展”(Describe an Extension)

If you’ve experimented already with the “Describe a Shortcut” feature for iPhone automation, then “Describe an Extension” for Safari will seem familiar. It’s located under the same settings menu as the “Notify Me” tool, just a little further down. 如果你已经尝试过 iPhone 自动化中的“描述快捷指令”功能,那么 Safari 的“描述扩展”功能会让你感到熟悉。它位于与“通知我”工具相同的设置菜单下,位置稍靠下一点。

The feature asks you to type what you want the extension to do, then generates a custom option. Some of the suggested prompts in Safari revolve around boosting productivity, like “display a reading time estimate as a badge on the extension,” maintaining better focus, like “make the web page grayscale,” and more random ideas, like “show a colorful and explosive firework every time I tap.” 该功能会要求你输入希望扩展程序执行的操作,然后生成一个自定义选项。Safari 提供的一些建议提示围绕提高生产力(如“在扩展图标上显示阅读时间预估”)、保持专注(如“将网页变为灰度模式”),以及一些更有趣的想法(如“每次点击时显示绚丽的烟花效果”)。

It took only a few seconds for each of those three examples to generate. Safari also suggests pre-made extensions during the process that could fit what you’re looking to do. As I scrolled through the internet with all three of the new extensions activated, everything worked as expected. While I’ll likely only keep the grayscale one to help me focus while reading online articles, the fireworks felt whimsical in small doses. 上述三个示例的生成过程仅需几秒钟。在此过程中,Safari 还会建议一些可能符合你需求的现成扩展。当我开启这三个新扩展浏览网页时,一切运行正常。虽然我可能只会保留灰度模式来帮助我阅读文章时保持专注,但偶尔看看烟花效果也挺有趣的。

Organize Tabs

“整理标签页”(Organize Tabs)

I am a glutton for mobile tabs, especially on Safari. I’m rarely ever exiting out of anything and always just pop open something new, which leaves me with hundreds upon hundreds of loosely connected, completely unorganized tabs—until now. 我是个“标签页囤积狂”,尤其是在 Safari 上。我几乎从不关闭页面,总是不断打开新的标签,这导致我积累了成百上千个毫无关联且杂乱无章的标签页——直到现在。

This feature is in the wider browser tab view accessible by tapping the two overlapping squares at the bottom-right corner of your screen. Swipe to a tab group brimming with websites and look for the three-lined button in the top-left. Here’s where you can choose to allow Safari to “automatically create topics” based on those tabs. 该功能位于更广阔的浏览器标签页视图中,点击屏幕右下角的两个重叠方块图标即可进入。滑动到一个堆满网页的标签组,寻找左上角的三横线按钮。在这里,你可以选择让 Safari 根据这些标签页“自动创建主题”。

It takes a few seconds to organize everything after you activate this feature, but it did a great job of finding helpful trends in those 500+ tabs. For example, it grouped all the WIRED articles I had open and created a tab topic for upcoming San Francisco event pages and comedy clubs I was considering checking out. 激活此功能后,整理所有内容只需几秒钟,它在处理我那 500 多个标签页时,非常出色地识别出了有用的分类趋势。例如,它将我打开的所有 WIRED 文章归为一类,并为我正在考虑参加的旧金山活动页面和喜剧俱乐部创建了一个标签主题。
