The ios_saf/10.0 format is not parseable by ua-parser-js. But a simple regex is sufficient to handle those cases.

| Support data only exists for the most common browsers (e.g. Chrome, Firefox, Safari, ...). To map any user agent to a list of needed polyfills you need to normalize the user agent to one of the known browser families and their corresponding version. | ||

| Since the `@financial-times/polyfill-useragent-normaliser` package was deprecated you might need to provide your own solution. |

I wish we could provide a solution here. I think it will be difficult for another organization to provide this library, given that the list of normalized families and versions is so tightly coupled to polyfill-library.
What if we publish our own normalizer? At first, it could just be a wrapper around @financial-times/polyfill-useragent-normaliser (thus avoiding users of polyfill-library depending directly on it), and then we can decide whether we want to fork it or transition to another normalizer.
