Certain websites not loading on iPhone 12 pro

Since purchasing the new iPhone 12 Pro, I have had issues where specific websites (ESPN.COM) do not load on safari. Has anyone else had this issue? When I clear my history it seems to correct the problem, but then just happen again in a day or two. Any insight into what could be causing this?

iPhone 12 Pro, 14

have spent hours with apple support have erased the phone twice and restored. Sorted all the above. The only thing that works is shutting off wifi and immediately turning it back on.

Go to Settings/Safari. Is Block all cookies turned on? If it is, turn it off.

Are you using a VPN connection? If you are, don’t.


When you erased the phone did you try to go to that site BEFORE you restored your backup?

Purchased a new IPhone 12 mini in January and am having the same issue with numerous sites not opening. It’s like they attempt to open and the get hung up partway through the connection process. Clearing all history only resolves the issue for a single new attempt at opening a site, resorting to restarting the phone fixes the issue, but again for only a single site access attempt. I have been having to restart my phone numerous times a day and it’s extremely frustrating. I have found myself trying to locate info online in urgent situations and have been caught in this dilemma. Not good Apple. Needs to be resolved!

It was very inconvenient for me to return the phone for any length of time... to do a repair that I am sure they wouldn't find an answer for as it was intermittent and someone would have to have been using it all day to get the timing of it down.

After our contract is done, if they don't come up with a fix, for the first time in 15 years, I am considering another brand.
