Mar 12, 2016 8:16 AM in response to poacher68by Geertmae,Also exactly the same problem here since early February. No links work on any of mu iOS devices with programs freezing and crashing: iPad Pro, iPad Air 2, and iPhone 6 Plus. I have been in 2 lengthy sessions with Apple customer support and they cannot provide a solution. They only thing that helped was a complete new installation, but that only helped for a few days until exactly the same problems appeared.
Apple please take this seriously!!
I had to install Google Chrome to click and hold on the reply button to this post and then select 'open in new tab' to be able to write this...

Mar 12, 2016 8:27 AM in response to Geertmaeby radam10,Apple, if these serious complaints are being monitored, please note there have been over 2,420 views on this malfunction. So far, no one has found any solution that reliably works nor has the deficiency been advised as being corrected in the iOS 9.3 beta releases to date. URL links work on my iPad Air 2 while they don't work on my wife's iPad Air 2 bought the same time, and upgraded at about the same time. Anyone reading can imagine how well that goes over in my house! I have decided to wait until iOS 9.3 is released to see if this annoying issue is corrected, but I definitely plan to write complaint letters, many, if it's not corrected. This issue, and the lack of any acknowledge or information about correction, reflects poorly on Apple!

Mar 12, 2016 9:31 AM in response to radam10by Geertmae,So far I have no hope that this will be solved soon as I am a beta user with iOS 9.3 public beta 6 on one of my devices with exactly the same problem.

Mar 13, 2016 2:14 PM in response to Mrs C Spainby valterfromrimini,Unfortunately this incredible malfunctioning iOS 9.2.1 along with an iPhone 6S camera that only creates watercolor images, make it disappointed a very old Apple user like me.

Mar 14, 2016 10:45 AM in response to radam10by NicTuttle,Seconded. iPhone 6S and iPad Air 2 here both with this issue. Both started happening recently and definitely after the 9.2.1 update.

Mar 14, 2016 11:01 AM in response to Geertmaeby gabriele2606,Correct. Even with the latest 9.3 update of yesterday the problem persists.

Mar 15, 2016 10:43 PM in response to Mrs C Spainby sfbay123,I'm experiencing the same thing on my iPhone 6 with iOS 9.2.1 and no internet hyperlink work in text messages, safari, chrome. It's horrible. It makes my phone nearly useless for internet purposes.

Mar 16, 2016 1:48 AM in response to Mrs C Spainby cdhanks,I am experiencing this problem on my iPhone 6s. I was previously running 9.2.1 and have since upgraded (including a wipe and restore from iCloud backup) to iOS 9.3b7 with the issue persisting.
My observations:
Messages app -> Any URLs sent to me do not open. The app eventually gets stuck and hangs.
Safari -> Any search results from Google have URLs that do not work. Strangely, Bing and DuckDuckGo are unaffected.WhatsApp - > Same as Messages app.
Mail -> Same as Messages app.
I've tried disabling/enabling any number of different preferences for Safari, wiped local caches, disable iCloud sync, etc. Basically every possible permutation to the issue, with no change in effect.
For comparison, I have an iPad running the beta, and an iPhone 6s Plus running 9.2.1 that do not exhibit this issue.
This needs to be addressed, as it is a silly, show stopping bug.

Mar 16, 2016 9:54 AM in response to Mrs C Spainby philipkohn,Same problem: links returned from Google don't open, attachments and links in mail don't open, both freeze after enough link taps.
Here is what fixed it for me: in Settings > Safari > Advanced > JavaScript OFF.
I wasn't sure anything would work these days without JavaScript, and maybe a lot won't, but google links now open, same for mail.

Mar 16, 2016 10:07 AM in response to philipkohnby gabriele2606,Unfortunately that hasn't worked for me .......

Mar 16, 2016 10:11 AM in response to Mrs C Spainby xilvestre,that hasn't worked for me too, if I disable javascript from safari, I can open links from google results in safari app, but, when I try to open links from mail it freezes as usual
