Why does my iPhone 7 plus keeps pausing while I'm watching online videos?

Every time I'm on the safari app and I'm watching a video it keeps pausing. Wether on I YouTube or any website that has a video and it's quite aggregating. Usually what I have to do for a couple of seconds of more video play is to press the home button to exit safari and then get back in. What can i do to fix this issue?


I have tried to restart the phone. I tried to delete my cookies and safari history. I have tried to restore my phone but this problem keeps reacurring. I read many discussion but haven't found any forums to help me with this bug. What to do!?

Hi, I am experiencing the same problem too. Can we do something about this temporarily while confirming this issue? I know it's not my internet connection. I get a good service here and as a matter of fact I just watched a couple of movies before this happened. It really pauses automatically after playing for 5 seconds. Really odd. Ahahaha! I am using iPhone 6s by the way with the latest version of iOS.

I have the same problem but this problem only accord when I updated to latest system software.. my internet is fine.. YouTube is working fine but watching a video via browser is not fine. I regret ever updating my phones system software, it has always led to no good.. why is it every apple product only last for less than a year or two.. forcing people to buy more junk..


Give me a troubleshoot that doesn't consist of the no brainer solutions which everyone should know..
