Safari background black

Something is wrong with the Safari app on all all devices. Some sites are going black or “safe mode” it doesn’t do it on all sites just some. Here’s how the site is supposed to look it stays that way for 2 seconds.


but then..

Can you tell he what’s wrong?

Hi Drickbay,


You included some great information outlining that this occurs on multiple devices, and only impacts some sites. As such, If Safari doesn't open a page or work as expected on your Mac or If Safari isn't loading websites or quits on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch are great places to start.


You may test to see if these pages load in other browsers on your device and test in a private window (Browse privately in Safari on Mac or Turn Private Browsing on or off on your iPhone) for further isolation. It may ultimately be necessary to consult the developer of that page to ensure they have designed their site to be opened and viewed in Safari.


Regards.

i downloaded Google Chrome on my ipad and phone. they load fine on there, it just seems to be Safari having the problem. even in incognito mode too and on my other devices including the mac. Those sites always worked fine on safari until yesterday morning i started having problems. BUT not on all sites, thankfully Netflix and Youtube still load good on safari because i need them in my mac because for some reason 🤷 there’s no Netflix or Youtube app for mac. furthermore not even Google Chrome…
