Q: Safari doesn't add items to reading list
Frequently when I try to add an item to the Safari reading list on my iPad Safari fails to do it. I never have this problem with OS X Safari.
Anyone else have this problem? Is there a fix?
Thanks,
iPad, iOS 9.1

Hello EricWeir,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
I see that you are unable to add a webpage to the Safari reading list on your iPad. I use this feature quite often to save links so I can read offline. I'm happy to help you find the best resolution to this issue.
First, force close the Safari app, restart your iPad, and then try to add an item to the reading list again and see if you get the same result. The following resources will help:
Force an app to close on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
Then, I see that you are running iOS 9.1. Please use the following articles to backup your iPad's important data, and update to the latest iOS software version:
