Description

It is cumbersome to use the MetaMask browser every time we need to interact with MetaMask on iOS/iPadOS

iOS Safari now supports web extensions (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/safariservices/safari_web_extensions)

It would be nice if MetaMask provided such extension that injected `window.ethereum` in the native iOS browser same as it does on desktop.

Research direction

Start by reviewing related issues #8879 and #3988, then read Apple's Safari Web Extensions documentation linked in the issue. Done means MetaMask provides an iOS/iPadOS Safari extension that injects window.ethereum into native Safari pages.
