Safari browser unsecured connection to website.

Hello thanks for reading. This is my first IPhone. I bought it new at Walmart pay as you go so nothing fancy the IPhone 7. I’ve been happy enough with Safari to use that as my browser. In fact Brave browser was horrible.


I know all about http and https when I’m on a website. I know right now this discussion.Apple is secure. Has the lock by it etc. So I know a little bit about a little. I’m not using a vpn just my home network.


I will search for something and as soon as I click on it I will go to the site and it will be a little slower and I’ll see the message not secure. Obviously I’m not connected over a secure connection. I know sometimes that happens to everyone. Happens to me a lot while surfing. Was wondering if anyone could be kind enough to let me know there thoughts on this one. Every site isn’t going to have a lock on it but the ones that say unsecured I feel like I can’t be myself in general. I like being over a secured connection while going to websites regardless if it’s this site, Facebook ( obviously) Reddit ( which is ) as well as sometimes they go from being secured to unsecured. Any feed back would be appreciated if there’s something I can do. Thank you for reading.
