Mapping AppleWebKit/ from useragent string to Safari version

Based on my tests (crunching through the logs and looking at useragent) there's no 1-1 correspondence between Safari version and AppleWebKit version (sometimes the same version of Safari is observed with multiple webkit versions in the wild - I don't quite understand this), but for 95%+ of the cases, the following holds:

  • Safari 11.1 and all newer have AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (this part of UI is now frozen! ^)
  • Safari 11.0 seems to be mostly AppleWebKit/604.*
  • Safari 10.1 seems to be mostly AppleWebKit/603.*
  • Safari 10.0 seems to be mostly AppleWebKit/602.
  • Safari 9.1 seems to be mostly AppleWebKit/601.*
  • Safari 9.0 seems to be mostly AppleWebKit/601.*
  • Safari 8.0 seems to be mostly AppleWebKit/600.*
  • Safari 7.0 seems to be mostly AppleWebKit/537.*
  • Safari 6.0 seems to be mostly AppleWebKit/536.*

^ on iOS, there are two misaligned versions sigh: AppleWebKit/605.1.15 ... Safari/604.1
