According to Statcounter, in July 2023, Google Chrome reclaimed some of the previously lost numbers. In June 2023, the world's most popular desktop browser experienced a notable decline in its customer base, going down from 65.88% to 61.16%. However, Chrome climbed to 63.33% this month, gaining 2.17 points.

Apple Safari, the only browser available on one platform, macOS, is now at a 13.13% mark, -1.35 points compared with the previous month. Microsoft Edge is third, with its now-traditional market share slightly higher than 10%—10.75%. The next is Firefox with 5.96% (-0.08 points) and Opera with 4.51% (-0.8 points).
