What's New in Regex for Safari

1.3.2

August 22, 2025

New features: 1. Added dark mode support. 2. Non-blocking search, even on a large page while the previous search has not finished, adjust or cancel it anytime you need. 3. Added Chineses localization. 4. Regex input persistent: valid or not, your typed-in regex string will stay in place till current tab is closed. Improvements: 1. Case-insensitive is now kept in search history, same regex string with different case-insensitive settings are considered 2 different search, hence 2 records in history. 2. Better match result: text in shadow DOMS can be matched now. In human words: more texts on page can be matched. 3. Better keyboard shortcuts responsiveness(when connected): keep pressing Enter/Shift+Enter, selected match will keep bouncing. 4. Better scrolling: when changing selected match, auto scrolling should work better to scroll the selected match into visible area. Bug fixes: 1. Copy matched texts functionality. This should work every time, plus no more empty lines in copied text! 2. Input regex won't be modified sometimes.

Does the thing, but not gracefully

First of all, the fact that this exists and is functional is excellent. 4 stars for showing up and working!

There are a couple of areas that I would love to see improvement. First, the history should stay open if it was open for the previous page. It currently closes randomly. Second, there should be a way to rerun the previous search values on the next page visited. That would save loads of time.

Works Great

非常好用

mixed

"Content script was not loaded" for
file:///..... urls;
a little odd if you mix this search
with page changes -- in my case, I deleted
messages while displaying the gmail inbox.

Some day, maybe.
