I Went to a website which then locked my screen and put up an error code: https :// iOSerror alerts.com
due to a third party application in your phone, iOS is crashed contact support for immediate fix +1-844-880-6772 toll free
I Then did 2 hard shut down but safari is locked. Please help!
iPad, iOS 8.3
Double-tap on the home button to bring up multi-tasking. Find Safari and swipe upwards on the thumbnail to force closed the app. Then go to Settings>Safari>Clear History and Website Data. After that, open Safari again and it should be alright. Whatever you do, do not call that number or provide them with any information. It is a scam, phishing attempt.
Assuming you are using an iDevice:
Double tap the Home button, then swipe upwards on the Safari preview.
Go to: Settings - Safari - Clear History.
Restart Safari.
Thank you Chris. It worked! I am all set.
You're welcome.
My safari is locked. I went to a website and it came back with an error message and locked it.
