The point is that most of us probably don&#x27;t use the app all that much anymore, so removing it probably isn&#x27;t a big inconvenience.<p>The article also mentions something I noticed a while ago too: mobile Safari is both faster and better on battery life than Chrome or any alternate browser. This makes sense - the alternative browsers are essentially running Safari under the hood anyway - but is still true.<p>However, I found this to be true on my MacBook Pro as well: Safari uses far less power and is significantly faster than Chrome. And while I think Chrome is far superior to Safari as far as features go, it&#x27;s also hard to justify why my browser consumes more resources than VMWare Fusion running Windows 10.
