      Apple also maintains their own browser engine, but that’s Apple.

          Ah, I guess I read over the first bit to where you mentioned the rebrands, which didn’t include Safari.

          To still add some useful information: all browsers on iOS are rebranded Safari, because Apple only permits their own browser engine.

          (The EU ruling may change this, however)
