And suddenly the news came that after Microsoft and Apple are planning to migrate their own browser, Safari, to the Chromium engine.

This is a false rumor circulating these days, saying that Apple is ready to abandon WebKit and adopt the same engine that Google Chrome has and that adopted Microsoft's Edge browser.

The information was originally published by Russian site iPhones.ru and slowly began to be rebroadcast on several English language websites.

No, although Apple could go to Chromium and follow in Microsoft's footsteps, the story is completely false and there is virtually no chance of seeing Cupertino-based Safari investing in Chromium.

The screenshot that Chromium-based Safari claims to show is also completely fake. Apple developer Ricky Mondello, also confirmed on Twitter that it was a false report.

Of course, Apple has not commented on the original article, but this time, it is quite clear that it is not even needed.
