I’ve never known an update cause so many problems for example the Daily Star site won’t load pictures after the first couple of inches of the page then it just goes white and reloads then it’s a repeat cycle of that.

Here is another disgusting bug that the ios15.1 gave me. It is regarding my DEFAULT mail. Notice the sentence at the top of the screenshot. It says “Your network settings prevent content from loading privately “. I have no idea what that means. I have been through network settings and private settings and still have no idea how to fix it other than tapping on the blue link which then opens the content. I should add that I had opened the content before I took the screenshot.

I’m getting the same problem on the Daily Mirror site now it loads the top of the page then white screen and reload in a loop.

 

[Querty]

Load page.

scroll down an inch

Scroll down another inch

Then it reloads

I look at quite a few UK newspapers each day, although neither of the above, and I have not had this problem. It may not be iOS but the newspaper code: just a thought.

Btw, you could try PressReader, with free access if you have joined a library.

Both the Mirror and Star were fine the day before I updated.

I’m using iOS15.2 beta 2 on an iPad Pro, and I’ve just looked at the Daily Star and Daily Mirror websites and all pages on both are loading fine for me.

I have just tried both and they are slow to load, but then both have a lot of pictures: Lirium app shows an awful lot of cpu use, which will drain the battery. I do not get the reload you mention, and this on my my now ancient ipad air 2 using Safari.

(Further comment on PressReader, in case it is of interest to others. The newspapers and magazines are worldwide and not just in English)

 

[Aerofly]

I agree with NSquirrel, they are both pretty slow to load, even on an iPad Pro but do load after a short while.

 

[Querty]

Really appreciate the help guys

To Geezerbill, it sounds like you’re referring to the ‘new’ Private Relay feature which was introduced in iOS15 and iPadOS15 for all iCloud users who qualify for an iCloud+ account, but is still in Beta at present.

It needs a little explaining, but luckily there is an Apple Support note which does just that…….
