Thanks for reporting! I am aware of this issue, but not sure how to handle it. Could wrap it in a try/catch but since I think it's a promise in of itself we could use a .then() and a .catch() to catch the error and surface console information for debugging:

 window.navigator.share({
      title: root.title,
      text: root.title + "\n" + window.location.href
    })
    .then(() => alert('The page was shared'))
    .catch((e) => console.log(e))

What do you think?

This looks good to me. I just tested on my end and it works as expected in Safari, logs the error, but still working and toggling properly.
