Safari tabs suddenly disappearing on my iPad I'm just actively using safari as always, try to close a tab, and then and then none of my tabs exist in the next second. It just vanishes and all i'm left with is the starting page. I switch to a different window with other tabs, and I can literally see how the tabs on that window just completely vanish too, with only the starting page again. Pressing the add tab does not show these disappeared tabs, and there is no way, after researching, that I can find to recover them. This has happened to me several times with no notice and it's extremely frustrating because I keep a lot of tabs open for things I wish to go back to. I know that this has just removed several things I want to keep and I have no way of going back to them. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Safari automatically closing TABS A problem has prevailed for years with tabs automatically closing in safari on the iPad. Forum after forum has tried to declare that there is no problem with the software. All one needs to do is either change the settings or clear your history/data and all is well. Bull! THERE IS A PROBLEM IN THE SOFTWARE. Apple needs to stop playing games with their users and fix their issue. I am so sick of being told that the issue is my fault. I am ready to through my iPad out the window. Fix the damn problem, Apple. For me, this only happens on the iPad. iPhones and PowerBook never.

Safari Autoclosing Tabs (it's already switch to manual closing) When my iPhone 12 gives a warning that storage is full, all my safari tabs automatically close. I have my closing tabs on manual and this wasn't a problem when I was on an older iOS (the one where I couldn't customize the lock screen with the time/adding weather or widgets to the lock screen). Is there a way to prevent it from automatically closing these tabs?

Perhaps you need to change your Safari settings:

Settings > Safari > [Tabs] Close Tabs > select the setting appropriate for your needs
