What is Safari?
Safari is a web browser developed by Apple Inc. It was first released in 2003 with Mac OS X Panther, and is the default browser on Apple devices. Safari has a number of features that set it apart from other browsers, including its support for WebKit technologies, itsaddons and extensions, and its integration with iCloud.
Why Would You Uninstall Safari?
Safari is a web browser that comes installed on all Apple devices. While it is a reliable browser, some users may prefer to use another browser such as Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox. If you wish to uninstall Safari from your MacBook, you can do so through the Finder application.
How to Uninstall Safari
If you’re using a public computer or someone else’s Mac and want to make sure your browsing history stays private, you can delete Safari from your MacBook. This will remove the app and all of its associated files, so make sure you have another way to access the internet before you proceed. You can always reinstall Safari later if you change your mind.

How to Completely Remove Safari
If you’re not a fan of Safari or want to use another browser, here’s how to completely remove Safari from your MacBook. This process will ensure that all of Safari’s data and preferences are erased, and it can be reverted if needed.

2. Once Safari has been moved to the Trash, open a new Finder window and go to your home directory. In the home directory, find the Library folder (if it’s not already visible, hold down the Option key and click on the Go menu, then select Library).
3. In the Library folder, look for a folder called “Safari” and drag it to the Trash as well. You may need to enter your password to delete this folder.
