Turn Private Browsing on or off on your iPhone - Apple Support
What are you not seeing that you expect to see?
If your device is owned, managed or controlled by someone other than you, you might not be able to use Private Browsing.
Apologies, I sent you the link for a previous iOS version. Try this one:
Browse the web privately in Safari on iPhone - Apple Support
Then... please describe what you are unable to do, referencing the corresponding step in that Apple Support document so that we can follow along.
I don’t see the option to open a private browser, like there is nothing there for a private browser but in my setting everything that is for a private browser is on. I’m the only person who owns my device
Someone else was able to help me fix it. But thank you a lot for information in case this happens again, I hope you have a wonderful day!
This helped fix it, thank you a lot! I’m not sure how it turned on, when I was able to use private browsing the night before, but nonetheless I am greatful. I hope you have a wonderful day!
Glad to hear it. Thanks for the update!
