            Bug ID: 227364
           Summary: iOS WKWebView findString not selecting and scrolling
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Other
          Hardware: iPhone / iPad
                OS: iOS 14
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit2
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

Since iOS 14 WebKit supports findString, but there is no documentation whatsoever yet.

However on the WWDC Sessions Discover WKWebView enhancements they mention that is a basic functionality for "Find on Page", where you can find a string and the WebView will select it and scroll to center it.

It seems very easy to use and to be finding the string as I get a result of matchFound true, but there is no selection and there is no scrolling. Maybe I'm missing something?

This is the code I have tried:

let webView = WKWebView()

// ...
// after loading a website with the desired string on it.
// ...

webView.find("hello world") { result in
    print(result.matchFound) // true
}
