I know this is an old thread, but I'd like to share my solution with you guys.

I needed to detect when an user navigates from Desktop Safari (Because we're in middle 2017, and Apple hasn't give any support for input[type="date"] YET...

So, I made a fallback custom datepicker for it) . But only applies to safari in desktop because that input type works fine in mobile Safari. So, I made this Regex to only detect desktop Safari. I already tested it and it doesn't match with Opera, Chrome, Firefox or Safari Mobile.

Hope it may help some of you guys.

if(userAgent.match(/^(?!.*chrome).(?!.*mobile).(?!.*firefox).(?!.*iPad).(?!.*iPhone).*safari.*$/i)){
  $('input[type="date"]').each(function(){
    $(this).BitmallDatePicker();
  })
}
