Mar 25, 2016 11:55 AM in response to Mrs C Spainby Dreex,★HelpfulHello,
I have both iphone 6s 128gb and ipad mini and both started to have the same problem after 9.2.1. Upgraded to ios 9.3 still the same on both devices. Tried all sort of disabling/enabling functions to overcome the problem. Disabling javascript worked for some hours but now not working anymore.
It doesn't make sense to me go back to factory settings and then restore both devices with a lot of config that i have on both. Who did the restore did not have success at all. Apple, please, you should address the problem.
Best
Andre

Mar 25, 2016 12:04 PM in response to Mrs C Spainby lfs.xavier,★HelpfulSame happening with my iPhone 6, 64 Gb after I upgraded to iOS 9.3. Until today in the morning it was all working alright but after my upgrade OTA links stopped working.

Mar 25, 2016 2:25 PM in response to Mrs C Spainby kbk1412,Same here. Udated Ipad Air 2 to 9.3 two days ago, now now having all the mentioned "no link symptoms". Resets do not work. Disabling Java Script helped for Google search links, but links in mails do crash the app.... Fascinating that there is no answer from Apple at all... Writing this from my Nexus5, thankful for never buying an Iphone until now.

Mar 25, 2016 3:59 PM in response to kbk1412by acama23,Hi! My wife is having the same issue with her iPhone 5S. I upgraded it to iOS 9.3 about 2 days ago and the problem just appeared today.
Turning off javascript for Safari works for links using the browser but all of her mail, calendar, and app links aren't working. This is a major problem and renders many of features of the phone useless. The only other change in the last day has been signing up for iCloud. Other than this nothing has changed. I did a "reset all settings" and it didn't change the extent of the issue.
I'm really hoping for some advice on this. My wife's phone is kind of dead in the water.

Mar 25, 2016 4:30 PM in response to acama23by Jeffrey Gullett,I have this same issue on my iphone 6 plus. But my ipad air 2 seems to be working fine. Both on ios 9.3.
This is beyond frustrating. And I simply am not going to go with the nuclear option and wipe my phone and not restore from a backup. That's ridiculous. Fix this Apple. My phone is basically crippled by this bug.

Mar 25, 2016 6:23 PM in response to Mrs C Spainby Gilean_Void,Same problem on iPad Air 2. After updating to 9.3 my Mail app freezes when I try to open a link from email. Links in Safari don't work and if i tap on them to open in a new tab Safari also freezes. I've tried to restore backup from iTunes that was made on 9.2.1. iTunes updated system to 9.3 immediately. Everything worked for some time, but problem reappeared when I redownloaded some apps and configured a new mail account. Then I tried to setup a new iPad. Again everything worked fine for some time but then problem reappeared. I'll try to clear iPad again and wait to look if problem will reappear without additional apps.

Mar 25, 2016 7:19 PM in response to Mrs C Spainby augmentium,i havent updated to 9.3, still on 9.2 on my iphone 5S and Ipad air 2 and have had this version for quite a while. The phone is fine, but the ipad started having this problem today. Safari, Chrome and Mail are affected, but Puffin browser and Outlook app which I just installed, seem to be ok for now. I wish Apple would acknowledge the issue and start working on a solution.

Mar 25, 2016 8:45 PM in response to Mrs C Spainby MikeAbramsNY,This is getting crazy... The way to quickly get Apple's attention is to make sure people like APPLE INSIDER, APPLE WORLD NEWS and other sites know and expose this horrible bug.....
When things like antenna issues etc happen and are exposed by major blogs and sites, THEN apple takes notice.. So please if anyone has any contacts at any of these lets get them on board.
I have USELESS devices without being able to access most sites with Java on web and links from email.

Mar 25, 2016 9:16 PM in response to Mrs C Spainby freshy,How annoying. I updated to 9.3 today and here I am wishing I hadn't. Please Apple give us a fix for this!
-
Mar 25, 2016 9:32 PM in response to freshyby MikeAbramsNY,★HelpfulThis has NOTHING to do with version 9.3...... It can happen on 9.2.1 or 9.3.. Mine broke on 9.2.1 and upgrading to 9.3 didnt help.

Mar 25, 2016 9:50 PM in response to Mrs C Spainby seanson,After owning every iPhone since the first one and about a dozen iPads I went out and bought a Samsung Galaxy today because I was so frustrated with this problem. This phone is ugly, but links work!!!! Hallelujah!

Mar 25, 2016 11:11 PM in response to Mrs C Spainby Neuron1234,Like those who have posted this before me, on 3/25/2016 I updated my iPhone 6 and iPad Air 2 to iOS 9.3 and the links in Safari and Mail do not work and the screen locks so I have to do a force quit. I reset and restored my iPad but to no avail. It was a waste of time. My wife's iPad Air 2 works fine after the iOS 9.3 update. She and I bought the iPads at the same time. Apple hasn't listed a timeline as to when the "fix" will be available.

Mar 25, 2016 11:37 PM in response to Mrs C Spainby bwad,I too started experiencing this a few days after upgrading to 9.3 on my iPad Air 2 128GB LTE.
Have tried restoring 9.3 via iTunes, Safari (and other apps) then work fine. As soon as I restore my backup, the links don't work anymore.I have turned off Javascript in Safari settings to get around this for now.
I can't believe this has been going on so long.
