iOS 9.3 - Safari/Mail freezes after clicking links on iPhone 6S

The original url can not redirect correctly because the new iOS sent the os information in the url is not supported till now. You can simply solve this problem temporarily by clicking the url and find out "...9.3..." and adjust it to "...9.2..." or other versions. The website will be open instantly.

I have these issues on both my iPhone 6 (128GB) and iPad Air 2 (64G) on iOS 9.3. Funny thing is, I don't recall this happening straight after the upgrade. How can a bug like this appear days after a release? Apple really messed up this one. On the iPod 6th gen there's no issue, except it I got locked out after the update and had to restore it. That's another issue. What a mess.

Strange... This helped me PARTIALLY. With the search engine set to Bing I can now search in Safari and follow the links of the found results, but email and WhatsApp links and searches in Chrome still do not work...

This truly *****!

iPhone 6 64GB with iOS 9.3.

I don't understand what you mean by: "clicking the url and find out "...9.3..." and adjust it to "...9.2..." or other versions" If it's the incorrect version, why do some iOS 9.3 devices not have this issue? (eg: iPod touch 6th gen)

Again huge and visible mistake in Apple, What the testers are doing? To verify, if Safari is working (you are able to click on link), belongs to main testing scenarios. It looks like the ios platform becomes more and more bugy. Where is the time, when "IT JUST WORKS" works. Hopefully, Tim Cook is facing the same problem!!!

Just spoke with Apple support. As of this writing they have no fix for my iPhone 6s running iOS 9.3.

As a workaround I am using the gmail app and firefox. Otherwise my iPhone is nothing more than a cell phone.

The tech I spoke with gave no promise of how soon a fix may be released.

What is interesting is that my wife's identical iPhone with 9.3 is working fine, as is my iPad Air running 9.3.

My guess is that my phone has been exposed to some type of malware.

Could this is this first big iOS security breach?

Same problem here! I think the problem somehow related with 3D touch function because if I change the search engine from google to bing in Safari, then sometimes it wors to click on links in Safari, but if I try to press harder to open with 3D touch immediately freeze!! Please Apple try to fix this issue very soon because it is very annoying!! Using other browser, the problem is the same! Thanks for the help..

This is just the evidence, the IOS becomes unstable and apple are not able to garant the quality, because ios can behave on different HW differently.

This has just happened to my 5s using version 9.2.1....I did not upgrade to 9.3 or even attempt to, so there is something else going on here, if it is happening randomly to all i phones i pads etc. upgraded or not. It was working one minute next it went like it had a mini stroke. What ever caused it was nothing to do with any app or other setting change as I was just surfing and boom! gone........Hope the impenetrable apple software has not been infiltrated with some new type of virus. So it either seems that the big software brains have messed up and deleted the software motorway to normality and turned out the lights,leaving us to fumble around in the dark and who are we but the iPhone apple minions.Sure!.. what do we matter.

the same problem appeared yesterday and I haven't updated it to 9.3 yet. the safari crushed suddenly and I'm using a stiff google chrome now. I bought my iPhone 6 last December but it works like a 3 year old refurbished one comparing with my previous iPhone 5 which functioned pperfectly well.Feel really disappointed with Apple now. The quality of their product nowadays *****!

THis has nothing to do with 3D touch since all my phones (except the wife's phone) are affected. Everything, 5s, 6, 6s...

TO me, this seem more and more like a virus/trojan. Maybe the first big one for apple!

Hey......My iphone 6 started to have the exact same problem from two days ago even without update the system.........

Crazy....i DIDN'T update to 9.3.. what the **** is this problem suddently appeared on my iphone for no reason......

Originally you wrote "And I never upgraded my iphone 6 which is 9.2 now..."

Are you really running 9.2 or is it 9.2.1?

Hi guys , nowadays i see the iOS became more and more disappointed, I have this problem too and find temporary solution.

The solution is : Go to settings then Safari change the " Search Engine " to " Bing ".

Congrats now you can search normally and open links in search result as usually.

Bye,,,,,,,,

I am still having this problem, does anyone know when it will be fixed. just spent two hours trying to reset my phone (not very good with phones) and it still isn't working. driving me insane!!
