How to Hide the Toolbar in Safari for iOS

The Website View menu includes one-tap settings that let you change text size options , request the desktop version of a website , and more. Here we're going to check out the new Hide Toolbar option.

In earlier versions of iOS, Safari hides the top and bottom toolbars when scrolling down a web page, and to view them again you have to tap the URL or swipe down on the page.

In iOS 13 though, you can get Safari to hide the toolbar completely when navigating a website, which makes for a less disruptive experience.

Simply select Hide Toolbar from the dropdown menu, and the toolbar will shrink to show just the URL. This more slimline arrangement will remain while you navigate the website, but you can re-instate the toolbar anytime by tapping the mini URL bar at the top of the screen.

Like many applications, Safari lets you tweak its interface to suit your preferences. You can customize, hide, or show the toolbar, bookmarks bar, favorites bar, tab bar, and status bar. Configuring these Safari interface bars to suit the way you use the browser can save you time and effort.

The toolbar runs across the top of the Safari screen, where the address area is. Here's how to add and remove items to your liking.

From the View menu, select Customize Toolbar .

Select an item you want to add to the toolbar and drag it to the toolbar. Safari will automatically adjust the size of the address and search fields to make room for the new item(s). When you finish, choose Done .

Try adding iCloud Tabs to easily continue browsing sites right where you left off when using other Apple devices. Select Text Size to add the capability to change the size of text on a page quickly.

Alternatively, right-click in an open space in the toolbar and select Customize Toolbar .

You can adjust a couple of other things very quickly, too:

• Rearrange icons in the toolbar by clicking and dragging them to a new location.
• Delete an item from the toolbar by right-clicking it and selecting Remove Item from the pop-up menu.

If you get carried away with customizing the toolbar, and you're not happy with the result, it's easy to return to the default toolbar.

Click and drag the default toolbar set from the bottom of the window to the toolbar.

Click Done .

Safari Favorites Shortcuts

Apple changed the name of the bar from bookmarks to Favorites with the release of OS X Mavericks . No matter what you call the bar, it's a handy place to store links to favorite websites.

Hide or Show the Bookmarks or Favorites Bar 

If you don't use the Favorites bar or want to gain a little screen real estate, you can close the bar. Simply select View > Hide Favorites Bar ( or Hide Favorites Bar , depending on the version of Safari you are using).

If you change your mind and decide you miss the bookmarks bar, go to the View menu and select Show Bookmarks Bar or Show Favorites bar.

In OS X Yosemite and later: Web page titles no longer appear in the toolbar area of the Safari browser if you have the tab bar hidden. Displaying the Tab Bar allows you to see the current page title, even if you don't use tabs.

Like other browsers, Safari supports tabbed browsing , which lets you have multiple pages open without having multiple browser windows open.

If you open a webpage in a new tab, Safari will automatically show the tab bar. If you want the tab bar always to be visible, even if you only have a single web page open, select View > Show Tab Bar .

To hide the tab bar, select View > Hide Tab Bar .

If you have more than one page open in a tab, you'll need to close the tabs before you can hide the tab bar. Click or tap the Close button (the little "X") in a tab to close it.

The status bar displays at the bottom of the Safari window. If you let your mouse hover over a link on a web page, the status bar will show the URL for that link, so you can see where you're going before you click the link. In most cases, this isn't important, but sometimes it's nice to check a URL before you go to the page, especially if the link is sending you to a different website.

• To display the status bar, select View > Show Status Bar .
• To hide the status bar, select View > Hide Status Bar .

Experiment with the Safari toolbar, favorites, tab, and status bars to find what works best for you. Generally, you'll find that having all the bars visible is most helpful, but if you need to maximize your viewing area, closing one or all is always an option.

Troubleshooting, how to customize safari toolbar on mac.

Do you use Safari to browse the web regularly on your Mac? If so, you’ll be excited to know that you can customize Safari’s toolbar just the way you want by adding or removing certain items from it.

Safari is the default web browser on macOS devices and it’s widely used by Mac users, over Google Chrome, Firefox, Opera etc. By default, Safari features buttons to go back/forward, view sidebar, share, tab overview, and of course the address and search bar. However, this can be completely changed according to the features you mostly use. For example, you can add a bookmarks option to the toolbar. Or perhaps, a print option if you often print pages from the web.

If you’re interested in changing the Safari Toolbar to better suit your web browsing, read on to learn how to customize it on the Mac.

Changing your Safari toolbar functionality is a lot easier than you may think. Just follow the steps below to interchange the items that show up in the toolbar.

There you have it, you have customized the Safari toolbar on your Mac.

Apart from adding items to the Safari toolbar, you can also customize your browser window with Favorites bar, Tab bar, and Status bar. To add them, simply click on “View” in the menu bar and choose to show these bars from the dropdown menu.

Another handy trick for many users, particularly advanced web users, is to make Safari show the full URL of website addresses , so that you can see the complete link of any site you’re browsing.

You can also customize the Safari Start Page if you’d like to.

Furthermore, you can take advantage of various keyboard shortcuts to quickly show or hide bookmarks, reading lists, and status bars in Safari too. If you aren’t familiar with Safari’s keyboard shortcuts, you can see some handy ones here , and you’ll also be able to find them in the dropdown menu of various options in the menu bar.

It’s worth mentioning that the ability to customize the toolbar has been in Safari for a very long time, so it does not matter which version of macOS (or Mac OS X) you’re using, the feature will be there. Some particular features are specific to newer Mac OS versions however, like the privacy report .

Did you customize the toolbar in Safari for Mac? Or do you think it’s perfect as it is by default? Share your thoughts, opinions, tips, advice, or whatever else is relevant and on your mind in the comments.

Where did your toolbars go? Here's what you can do to get your toolbars back in Chrome, Firefox, Microsoft Edge, and Safari. Since mobile browsers don't allow for additional toolbars, you cannot perform these steps on mobile. This wikiHow article shows you how to restore a missing toolbar in your computer's web browser.

Get Your Toolbars Back

• Get out of full-screen mode if you're opening your browsers in it. To do this, press "F11" or "Fn + F11" (Windows) or click the green circle in the top left corner of your browser (Mac).
• Make sure the toolbar's extension is enabled. Go to "Extensions" and check to see if the toolbar is listed there or if it is enabled.
• If all else fails, run a virus scan to make sure your system isn't buggy due to an infection.

• Windows - Press F11 (or Fn + F11 ).
• Mac - Hover your mouse at the top of the screen, then click the green circle in the top-left corner of the screen when it appears.

• Click the three-line menu icon (also called the hamburger icon) in the top right corner of your screen, then click More tools > Extensions .
• If you can't find the toolbar that you want from this list, you may first have to reinstall the extension .
• Check the " Enabled " box to the right of the toolbar extension, then check the "Allow in incognito" box below the toolbar if you want to use the toolbar in incognito mode.

• Select Bookmarks
• Click Show bookmarks bar

• You can also click Show Path Bar and Show Tab Bar here if you're missing the URL text box or the tab view at the top of Safari.
• If you see Hide Toolbar here instead, click Hide Toolbar and then click Show Toolbar to re-activate it.

• Click Customize Toolbar...
• Click and drag items from the menu up onto the toolbar.

• Windows - Press F11 (or Fn + F11 ) to exit full-screen mode.

• Click View (on Windows, press the Alt key first)
• Select Toolbars
• Click a toolbar that you want to enable (e.g., Bookmarks Toolbar )
• Repeat for remaining toolbars if needed.

• Click Customize...
• Make sure that "Toolbars" is selected in the drop-down menu at the bottom of the page.
• Click and drag toolbar options from the middle of the page to the upper-right side of the window.

• You can repeat this process for other missing or hidden toolbars by clicking the "Back" arrow in the top-left side of the menu and then selecting a different service.

How to turn on and edit the Favorites bar in Safari

A few weeks ago, I received a panicked call from my sister. "My Favorites are gone! I don't know where they went and I don't know how to get them back." The favorites in question weren't Instagram likes or Twitter stars — no, her new work Mac had come with its Bookmarks favorites bar disabled.

It's not uncommon to see this in new OS X Yosemite Macs; Safari's default view sports as few buttons and switches as possible, so as to immerse yourself in the Web browsing experience. But it's an easy fix to reenable the Favorites bar and even edit it.

How to turn on and edit the Bookmarks bar in Safari

Turning the Bookmarks or Favorites bar on is a relatively simple process.

• Open Safari .
• Select the View menu
• Find Show Favorites Bar

(If you like keyboard shortcuts, you can also use Command-Shift-B to show or hide the bar.)

How to add new sites to your Favorites bar in Safari

Once your Favorites bar is visible, there several ways to add new sites and folders to it.

The easiest way to add a website is to drag its icon from the status bar to the Favorites bar; you'll see a green plus button to let you know it's safe to drop it onto the bar.

You can also add or edit favorites by doing the following:

• Click on the Sidebar icon in the upper left corner of Safari.
• Select the bookmarks icon .
• Open the Favorites section by clicking on the arrow.
• Click Edit .

Inside the Bookmarks editing screen, you can add folders to group bookmarks together, or simply drag bookmarks from their current location into the Favorites toolbar.

How to quickly edit your Favorites bar in Safari

If you'd prefer not to launch the full Favorites editor, you can tweak your favorites in a few different ways.

Rename them or their website: Want a different name for your new bookmark or need to update the address? Control-click (or right click) on a bookmark in the Favorites bar and select Rename Bookmark or Edit Address .

Delete: Don't want a bookmark on your Favorites bar anymore? Just drag it off the toolbar and it'll disappear in a cloud of pixel smoke.

Copy for later: Need to share an address with someone? Control-click on a bookmark and select Copy to save it to your clipboard.

Top 6 Ways to Customize Safari on Mac

He has over five years of experience and has covered 1,500+ articles on GuidingTech and Android Police. In his free time, you will see him binge-watching Netflix shows, reading books, and traveling.

With macOS Big Sur and Monterey, Apple positions Safari as the true alternative to Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge . With each iteration of macOS, Apple adds a good amount of new features and customization options to Safari on Mac. Here are the top six ways to customize Safari like a pro on Mac.

Not everyone is a fan of Safari’s new tab management, boring white background, or a simple home screen. With Safari’s personalization options, you can easily tune the Safari experience to your liking. Follow the methods below and make necessary changes to the Safari browser to make it truly yours.

1. Try New Tab Design

With macOS Monterey, Apple is offering a different way to organize your tabs. You can either keep your tabs separate (the default option) or use the compact layout.

Step 1: Open Safari on Mac and click on Safari name in the menu bar.

Step 2: Go to Safari Preferences.

Step 3: From the Tabs menu, select Compact.

You will quickly see the current tabs changing the position to the top with extensions and other items. This is useful for those who want to utilize more space in Safari on Mac.

As for us, we find it quite a busy arrangement when dealing with dozens of tabs, so we moved back to the Separate option.

2. Enable Color in Tab Bar

This is yet another addition Apple added with the macOS Monterey update. You can now enable color in the tab bar. Safari will extract color from the website and show it across the tab bar.

Step 1: Open the Safari Preferences menu.

Step 2: Go to Tabs.

Step 3: Enable Show color in tab bar option.

Again, when you have multiple tabs opened in Safari and are switching among them, you might have a hard time constantly changing colors in Safari tabs. From the same menu, you can revert to the previous method.

3. Customize Toolbar

This is one of the oldest methods to customize the Safari experience on Mac. Open Safari and right-click on a space in the top space. Select Customize Toolbar, and it will open a dedicated toolbar menu.

You can use the toolbar menu to drag and drop relevant functions to the toolbar. Users can even add Flexible space to the Safari toolbar.

We mostly keep the extensions from the left side of the address bar and the Download, Share and Add Tab on the right side.

4. Apply Background Wallpaper

Introduced with macOS Big Sur, Apple allows you to change the default background in the Safari start page. Follow the steps below to change wallpaper in Safari on Mac.

Step 1: Open Safari and click on the hamburger menu at the bottom.

Step 2: Use the scroll bar at the bottom and glance over the default wallpapers to apply in Safari.

Step 3: If you are not satisfied with Apple’s built-in wallpapers, you can click on the + icon and apply a wallpaper from the Mac storage.

Make sure you don’t end up using a funky wallpaper that makes it difficult for you to read text on the Safari home page.

5. Enable iCloud Tabs

This is useful for those switching between Apple devices frequently. If you have Safari tabs opened on iPhone or iPad, you can easily access them from the Safari home page on Mac without going into the History.

Step 1: Go to Safari and click on the hamburger menu at the bottom.

Step 2: Enable iCloud tabs, and you will see the Safari tabs appearing on the home.

From the same menu, you can enable Privacy Report as well. Privacy report states the amount of harmful trackers Safari is blocking during your browsing sessions.

6. Change Search Engine

By default, Safari uses Google to answer your queries. However, Safari isn’t limited to Google only. You can easily change it to Yahoo or DuckDuckGo from the Preferences menu. Here’s how.

Step 1: Open Safari on Mac.

Step 2: Use command + , keys and open the preferences menu.

Step 3: Go to Search.

Step 4: Select the Search engine.

Step 5: You can change from Google to Yahoo, Bing, DuckDuckGo, or Ecosia.

If you are not satisfied with the new search engine, you can always go back to Google from the same menu.

Personalize Safari Experience on Mac

Users can also go ahead and uninstall Safari extensions on Mac. Safari remains our top choice to browse the web on the Mac. If you miss your favorite Chromium extensions, you can consider checking out Chrome or Edge on the Mac . We recommend going with Safari and making relevant changes based on your preferences for the rest of the crowd.

In iPadOS 15 , Apple left the new Safari tab bar design turned off by default, but it's already installed when you upgrade to iPadOS 15 or later. If you'd like to experiment with the new "compact" tab bar design, it's easy to enable in Settings. Here's how.

First, open Settings by tapping the grey gear icon.

In Settings, tap "Safari" in the sidebar.

In Safari settings, navigate to the "Tabs" section, then select "Compact Tab Bar" until it has a check mark below it.

Next, launch Safari and open several websites at once. Previously, with "Separate Tab Bar" selected, you'd see a dedicated tab bar just below the address toolbar. Now, with "Compact Tab Bar" selected, the toolbar at the top of the screen takes up less space. That's because the tab bar has merged into the address bar.

To see or edit the current URL address while in "Compact Tab Bar Mode," tap the current tab button, and it will expand into an address bar. To open a new search box to type in a search term or a new web address, tap the plus ("+") button in the right side of the tab bar.

If you change your mind and want to go back to the old tab bar style, just open Settings again and navigate to Safari, then select "Separate Tab Bar" in the Tabs section. You can make a similar change on the iPhone if you're not happy with the new Safari design in iOS 15. Happy browsing!

EEOC Sues Three Employers for Workplace Harassment

WASHINGTON –The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) filed a trio of lawsuits alleging that discriminatory mistreatment in the workplace created illegal hostile work environments in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

“Employers have a duty under federal civil rights law to make sure all of their employees are treated with dignity by managers and coworkers alike, and that if anyone is made to feel unsafe at work because of their national origin, race, sex, or other protected characteristic, the situation is taken seriously and investigated thoroughly,” said EEOC General Counsel Karla Gilbride. “As the EEOC’s recent harassment guidance explains, hostile environments based on any trait covered by federal anti-discrimination law are illegal, and the EEOC will remain steadfast in enforcing those protections.”

Today the EEOC filed:

• EEOC v. United Airlines, Inc., Case No. 1:24-cv-2438 in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado. The agency filed suit against the airline after a manager harassed an employee who was born in Mongolia by calling him a “chink,” grabbing his arm to inspect his identification badge, and asking if he liked working for United before slapping him on the back and walking away. The harassment took place during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic when Asian Americans were experiencing increased public hostility and violence. United failed to investigate for months, which led to the worker’s resignation. “The EEOC is committed to enforcing our nation’s laws preventing race and national origin harassment in the workplace,” said Mary Jo O’Neill, regional attorney for the EEOC’s Phoenix District, which includes Colorado. “Employers need to remain vigilant in preventing their own managers from engaging in harassment in the workplace. And employers must act promptly in investigating harassment allegations and must immediately take steps to stop the harassment and take appropriate disciplinary and remedial actions, especially where the harassing incident involves both a racial slur and physical assault.”
• EEOC v. Epiq Food Hall Woodbridge, LLC, et al , Case No.: 1:24-cv-1518 in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia. The agency filed suit against the restaurant and its successor company after the owner subjected a Black general manager to numerous derogatory racial comments, telling him that he “look[ed] like [he] spoke thug language” and referring to him as the n-word; made frequent disparaging remarks about Black customers and employees—calling them “not smart,” “ignorant,” “ghetto,” and “riff-raff;” and canceled live music and karaoke events that attracted predominately Black patrons. Because of the persistent racism and lack of a complaint procedure or a human resources department, the general manager was forced to resign. “Federal law ensures that no one has to endure racial slurs from their boss in order to make a living and holds employers automatically liable for the harassing conduct of their owners,” said Debra M. Lawrence, regional attorney for the EEOC’s Philadelphia District. “The EEOC is committed to addressing all forms of unlawful harassment in the restaurant industry, where it continues to occur all too frequently.”
• EEOC v. Rivers Edge Enterprises, LLC d/b/a River’s Edge Bar and Grill , Case No.: 8:24-cv-2090 in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida, Tampa Division. The agency filed suit against the restaurant after one of its owners subjected female employees to a sexually hostile work environment. One of the restaurant’s owners, who owns the bar with two of his brothers, openly and on a daily basis, made sexually charged comments, propositioned his female employees to have sex with him, and touched and groped female employees without their consent. The other two owners witnessed the conduct but failed to take action. When a female employee complained about the harassment, she was terminated. “Sexual harassment continues to be a pervasive issue in the restaurant industry,” said Kristen M. Foslid, regional attorney for the EEOC’s Miami District. “Employers who utilize their positions of power to prey on vulnerable restaurant workers will be held accountable under the law.”

These companies’ alleged conduct violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, which prohibits discrimination, including unlawful harassment, based on race, color, religion, sex, and national origin, sex—and retaliation against employees who complain about unlawful conduct. The EEOC filed suit after first attempting to reach a pre-litigation settlement through its administrative conciliation process in each of the three cases.

Last fiscal year, the number of charges the EEOC received involving harassment jumped more than 28% to 31,354, the highest since the agency started monitoring harassment charge numbers in fiscal year 2010. Charges involving retaliation reached more than 46,000, a 31-year high . The EEOC recently issued updated Enforcement Guidance on Harassment in the Workplace with more than 70 concrete examples to help employees and employers identify workplace issues and take action.

• Safari 15's Bookmarks accessibility I've just "upgraded" to Safari 15 and I normally try to embrace new updates and try not to moan, but there seems to be schoolboy errors in the code. I use Safari full screen and the bookmarks now work differently and I can no longer have the bookmarks sidebar persistent on the start page only, so I thought I'd put "Bookmarks" on the tool bar using "Customise Toolbar" There is an Star icon called "Bookmarks" but it seems to be miss-labeled it is not bookmarks it just shows the favourites bar. Is there any way to get to my bookmarks directly, without extra clicks? or am I just a luddite wanting to have bookmarks? If I'm not missing something I'll have to have a look for an alternative browser. [Re-Titled by Moderator] 419 2

Hi jaykulkarni,

Bookmarks under the Favorite folder can be shown on the top of Safari. To show them at the top see View your Favorites in Safari on Mac:

Show the Favorites bar:  Choose View > Show Favorites Bar. A bar with your favorite websites appears below the toolbar.

For additional resources on this see:

Use profiles in Safari on Mac

Starting with Safari 17, you can use profiles to keep your browsing separate for topics like work, personal, or school. Each profile has separate history, cookies, website data, extensions, Tab Groups, and favorites.

Create a profile

Switch between profiles, learn how profiles keep browsing separate, sync profiles between devices, rename a profile, open links with profiles, delete a profile.

Requires Safari 17 or later*

When you create your first profile, your current history, cookies, website data, extensions, Tab Groups, and favorites become part of the default profile, named Personal. Profiles that you create are in addition to this default profile.

From the menu bar in Safari, choose Safari > Create Profile. Or choose Safari > Settings, then click Profiles.

Click Start Using Profiles. Then set up your new profile:

Name: The name will appear in the new Safari toolbar button for this profile.

Symbol: The symbol will appear in the Safari toolbar button for this profile, and in the default background of the profile's start page.

Color: The color will appear in the Safari toolbar button for this profile, and in the default background of the profile's start page.

Favorites: If you choose “Create new bookmarks folder,” the new folder will have the same name as this profile. Bookmarks saved to the favorites folder appear in the Favorites bar for this profile.

Click Create Profile. By default, Safari opens new windows and new tabs to your start page.

After you create a profile, the Safari toolbar shows a button with the name, symbol, and color of the currently used profile or Tab Group. Click the button to open a menu, then choose:

New [Profile] Window: Opens a new window in that profile. You can also open a new profile window from the menu bar: Choose File > New [Profile] Window.

Switch to [Profile] Window: Switches to another profile without opening a new window. To keep your browsing history separate, this option is available only from a window that shows your start page or an empty page—before you visit another page.

If you use Focus, you can add a Focus filter that automatically switches to a specific Safari profile whenever you use that Focus. Learn more about setting up Focus . When adding a Focus filter, choose the Safari filter, then set the Filter Type to Profile and choose the profile that you want use.

Some Safari features and settings are shared between profiles, including AutoFill information, Passwords information, Security settings, Websites settings, and Privacy settings. Others are not shared, or behave differently.

The Favorites bar is shared only between profiles that are set up to use the same favorites folder .

Private browsing windows use the Favorites bar of the default profile only.

History, cookies, and other website data

Browsing history, cookies, and other website data are not shared between profiles.

When you begin using a new profile, websites don't have the cookies or website data needed to remember you, so they might ask you to sign in again.

When you clear your history , you can clear all history or just the history of a selected profile.

Tab Groups are not shared between profiles.

Start page settings

Start page settings , as well as the “New tabs open with” and “New windows open with” settings, are not shared between profiles.

Safari extensions

Safari extensions are available to all profiles, but are managed (turned on or off) separately.

Extensions for the default profile are managed in the main Extensions tab of Safari settings. For each extension that you select in this tab, you can see which profiles are using them. You can also uninstall extensions for all profiles from this tab.

Extensions for other profiles are managed in the Profiles tab, which has its own Extensions tab for each profile. By default, extensions are turned off for each new profile.

Profiles automatically sync between all of your devices that are using Safari 17 or later, are signed in with the same Apple ID, and have Safari turned on in the iCloud section of Apple ID settings .

You can change the name, symbol, and color of any profile, including the default profile. But there can be only one default profile, and you can't make another profile the default.

From the menu bar in Safari, choose Safari > Manage Profiles. Or choose Safari > Settings, then click Profiles.

Select a profile on the left.

In the Name field on the right, type a new name.

By default, links from outside of Safari open in the profile used most recently. But you can make links to specific websites open in a specific profile. For example, you might want to open links to your company's website in your Work profile, or open links to your school's website in your School profile.

Go to the website that you want to set up for this feature.

From the menu bar in Safari, choose Safari > Settings, then click Websites.

From the sidebar, select Open Links With Profiles. A list of open websites appears on the right.

From the pop-up menu next to a website, choose the profile that you want to use for that website.

This feature works only with links opened from outside of Safari, such as links in Mail, Messages, the Finder, or other apps. The link opens in the profile you chose for that website, unless the website is already open in another profile.

When you delete a profile, all of its history, cookies, and other website data are also deleted. Favorites and other bookmarks are kept.

Click the Delete button (–) at the bottom of the list, then confirm the action when prompted.

You can't delete your default profile. If you delete all other profiles, Safari stops using Profiles.

* Safari 17 is included with macOS Sonoma or later and the latest macOS Ventura and macOS Monterey updates. It's also included with iOS 17 for later for iPhone, and iPadOS 17 or later for iPad.
