Why doesn't Safari remember zoom levels for each website?

Safari's zoom in and out support is great! Rendering performance doesn't slow down when zoomed like firefox does.


But Firefox's implementation is much nicer since it seems to remember the zoom level for each domain you visit.


Safari seems to just store one, global zoom setting, which is annoying. Is there some hidden preference to control this? Does anyone know of an add on that manages zoom amounts better?

Hi Thomas...


There's a Safari extension called, "Zoom by Site" that might work for you.


"ZoomBySite replaces the built-in zoom in Safari with a version that automatically restores the zoom level for each site with the settings from your last visit. This relieves you from having to Zoom In a few times each time you visit those sites with tiny fonts."


Here's how to find it.


Click Safari from your Safari menu bar top of your screen. From the drop down menu click Safari > Extensions..


Select Productivity on the left.


When you find Zoom by Site click Install Now.


To access that extension, back to your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab.
