    Greetings JeffWlx,

     

    Thanks for your post. I see that when you use Safari in landscape mode on your iPhone the “No Shared Links” area is showing and taking up half the screen. I know the point of having it horizontal is to see more on the screen at once and this keeps that from happening. I’ll be happy to help. 

     

    What you’re seeing on the left side is the area for bookmarks, the reading list, and shared links. There are three tabs there to choose what to see. To hide this, make sure you’re at the top of the webpage so you can see the address bar at the top. To the left, next to the forward and back buttons, you should see a blue book icon. Tap that, and it will deselect, and hide the shared links pane. 

     

    Take care!
