As Safari 10 doesn't have support for WebRTC, so navigator.getUserMedia will not have any effect. Safari 11+ has support for WebRTC hence you can use navigator.getUserMedia by enabling 'Enable Legacy WebRTC API' on develop menu or navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia.

This is only supported in Safari 11: https://developer.mozilla/en-US/docs/Web/API/MediaDevices/getUserMedia

You might be able to use navigator.getUserMedia (which is deprecated so be careful here): https://developer.mozilla/en-US/docs/Web/API/Navigator/getUserMedia
