Top 12 Ways to Fix Safari Not Working on iPhone and iPad
Apple’s ingenious web browser, Safari, was developed in 2003 and received many praises. However, Google responded with Chrome and many migrated to it as Safari had bugs . Although it has improved a lot over years, sometimes the web browser stops working. If you’re facing this issue, here’re twelve fixes for Safari not working on iPhone and iPad.
Following are some of the most common methods that have worked to troubleshoot Safari. We recommend you try every method, except the Reset iPhone option which should be used as a last resort. We have provided detailed steps for each method, but let us start with the basics.
Why Is Safari Not Working On iPhone and iPad
Safari might not work for a lot of reasons, but the most common issue is the app not being able to connect to the internet. This is probably because you are not connected to a good internet connection, or there are a few misconfigurations on your iPhone settings that are preventing Safari from doing so.
Fortunately, there are a few effective methods to fix the issue. As you start reading the next section of this article, you will find a detailed procedure to fix Safari on your device.
How to Fix Safari Not Working on iPhone and iPad
Below are twelve easy methods to fix Safari. Most of these will resolve the issue within a few steps only, and therefore will not consume a lot of time.
We also came across a lot of users across forums suggesting toggling a few features off/on to fix the issue. So, let us take a look at all of these methods in detail. We can start by simply trying to restart the device
1. Restart iPhone or iPad
Simply trying to restart your device will fix most issues, and it can probably fix Safari not working as well. Here’s how you can restart your iPhone or iPad.
Step 1: First, shut down your device.
- On iPhone X and above : Press and hold the volume down and the side button.
- On iPhone SE 2nd or 3rd gen, 7, and 8 series : Press and hold the side button.
- On iPhone SE 1st gen, 5s, 5c, or 5 : Hold the power button at the top.
- On iPad : Hold the power button at the top.
Step 2: Now, drag the power slider to turn off the device.
Step 3: Next, turn on your device by pressing and holding the power button on your iPhone.
If it’s a software issue, restarting the device should fix your Safari not working issue. If it doesn’t, try tweaking a few settings shown in the next few fixes and see if they help.
2. Turn off Safari Suggestions
We’re not entirely sure how this fixes the issue, but a lot of users reported that doing this restored the functionality of their browser. Here’s how you can turn off Safari Search Suggestions on iPhone or iPad.
Step 1: Open the Settings app and open Safari
Step 2: Toggle off ‘Search Engine Suggestions’.
That is how you can disable Search Engine Suggestions. If the issue persists, you need to check if Safari is limited by any Screen Time settings.
3. Edit Your Screen Time Settings
To provide digital well-being controls to the user, Apple has an option to set a limit to the duration of any app being used. If you’ve enabled Screen Time for Safari , it cannot be used once you exhaust the set limit. Here’s how you can remove the limit to ensure Safari works as usual on iPhone.
Step 1: Open the Settings app and select Screen Time.
Step 2: You need to select App Limits.
Step 3: Safari will show up in this list if there is a limit for it. Tap on it, and select Delete Limit.
This ensures that you do not have any limits set on using Safari. You now need to check if there is a network limit set on Safari.
4. Check Cellular Settings for Safari
If you have turned off cellular data access for Safari, and are trying to use Safari on mobile data, it won’t work. Therefore, you need to remove the restrictions. Here’s how you can do it.
Step 1: Open the Settings app and select Cellular.
Step 2: Scroll down to find Safari. Turn on the toggle to give Safari access to cellular connectivity.
If the issue persists, perhaps it is time you now try and clear all browsing data from Safari.
5. Clear Safari History and Data
If you have been using Safari for a long time, it will accumulate a lot of website data. This can slow down Safari and affect the web browsing performance. Hence, it is a good practice to clear browsing history and cache from Safari every fortnight. Here’s how you can do it.
Step 1: Open the Settings app and select Safari.
Step 2: Tap on ‘Clear History and Website Data’ and select ‘Clear History and Data’ to confirm. This will delete your browsing history, stored cache, cookies, and saved passwords.
6. Check Network Connectivity
As mentioned earlier, a major reason why Safari does not work on iPhone and iPad is due to a lack of connectivity. Here’s how you can ensure that you are connected to a good network on your device.
Step 1: Open the Settings app and select Wi-Fi.
Step 2: Now, check if the Wi-Fi network you are connected to has full strength, and does not show errors like ‘Not Connected to Internet’ or ‘Weak Security’.
If you are operating on mobile data, the connection needs to either be on 4G or 5G running on strong signal strength.
Step 2: Ensure the toggle is on for Cellular Data. Also, ensure that the network is connected to 4G/5G and has a good signal strength.
Step 3: If you can’t connect to a 4G or 5G network despite having a plan for the same, tap on ‘Cellular Data Options’.
Step 4: Now, tap on ‘Voice & Data’. Select 4G or 5G as your default network.
7. Turn Off Hide IP Address From Trackers
The ‘Hide IP Address From Trackers’ option ensures that your IP address is not provided to any browser trackers. To know more, you can read our article on trackers on Safari . However, this causes a few issues that might cause Safari to not work on iPhone and iPad.
Here’s how you can disable this feature.
Step 2: Tap on ‘Hide IP Address’.
Step 3: Select Off, if not already.
Another feature on Safari that might cause a few errors are extensions. Here’s you you can disable them to fix Safari not working on iPhone and iPad.
8. Check Safari Extensions
While Safari extensions on iPhone help expand functionality, not all extensions are stable and some might cause issues with your web browsing experience. Here’s how you can turn off an extension.
Note : The extension we are using to show you the steps is just an example. By no means we are stating that this extension is causing issues.
Step 2: Now, tap on Extensions.
Step 3: Now, select the extension, and toggle it off.
This is how you can turn off extensions to ensure they are not the means of any problem. However, sometimes disabled JavaScript can also affect Safari. Let’s understand this in detail in the next section.
9. Enable JavaScript
JavaScript is a crucial element in websites that enables interactive content. If you disable it, you won’t see any images, videos, or other media content on a website. Thus, it can prevent Safari from responding on iPhone. Here’s how you can turn JavaScript on.
Step 2: Scroll down and tap on Advanced.
Step 3: Ensure to turn on the toggle for JavaScript.
That is how you enable JavaScript and ensure all kinds of websites work fine on Safari. If this does not work too, you need to check if your device is connected to a VPN network and if this prevents Safari to operate normally.
10. Disable VPN
VPN is a private network that hides your IP address while browsing the web. However, if you don’t connect to a VPN using a reliable service, you will face low speeds while browsing on Safari. Therefore, you can turn off the VPN connection.
Step 1: Open the Settings app and select General.
Step 2: Tap on ‘VPN & Device Management’ and ensure that the VPN status remains ‘Not Connected’.
If none of the above methods work, you can try some generic methods that help resolve most issues on iPhone and iPad, you can check if there is any software update for your iPhone.
11. Update Your iPhone and iPad
Apple ensures to fix issues faced by a lot of users through a software update. Therefore, it is best to remain on the latest version of iOS. Here’s how you can do the same.
Step 2: Tap on Software Update and select Download and Install. This will download and install the latest iOS update for your iPhone and iPad.
If this does not work either, you can probably try and reset your iPhone or iPad as a last resort.
12. Reset All Settings
Resetting your iPhone has a good probability of fixing any issue, and it goes the same for Safari not working as well. Here’s how you can Reset your iPhone.
Step 2: Tap on Transfer or Reset.
Step 3: Select Reset.
Step 4: Now, you can select Reset Network Settings to restore all original settings related to the network, i.e Wi-Fi settings, cellular Settings, saved passwords, etc.
If that does not work, you can select Reset All Settings. However, this will restore all your iPhone settings to default. This will not erase any of your data.
Step 5: If this does not work too, you can try to completely erase your iPhone and start afresh. You can tap on the ‘Erase All Content and Settings’ option on the reset page.
Now, follow the on-screen instructions to erase and reset your iPhone. However, since it wipes your phone, we suggest you take a full backup of your iPhone and iPad .
This, as mentioned earlier, should only be tried as a last resort as you’ll have to set up your iPhone or iPad as a new device.
Get Safari Working Again With these methods
That is all you need to know about trying to fix Safari not working on iPhone or iPad. We hope you found these methods helpful. Realistically speaking, it will most probably be an issue with your network connectivity, or from the website’s end. We hope your Safari is up and running soon.

Hi, I have a 2019 iMac 21.5 inch and after updating to Big Sur, I have the same issue in safari - but only in YouTube site. It just won't scroll down smoothly in the comments section. Only pulling down the 'thin bar thingy' on the right end of safari helps me get down the page. I don't find this problem in other websites. I got my new M1 MacBook Air delivered just now - same problem. It must be something to do with YouTube site....

It's exactly the same for me with stable Safari ver. on facebook. But not with Safari TP R116 14.1.
Yes its certainly less smooth on Big Sur
This seems to be a bug in Safari other apps. The scrolling lags and jumps, I have clean installed twice on my rMBP 2018 i9, deffo a bug.
It's easy to fix. System Preferences/Accessibility/Pointer Control. Then click either Track Pad Options or Mouse Options (depending on if you use a track pad or mouse) and make sure there's a checkbox next to Rolling. Also change the popup menu for Rolling from Traditional to intermittently . Please note that the two underlined words might be a little different in you system since I use a non English system and did a Google translation from my language. The above instructions will fix your problem.

Hate digging up an old thread, but I decided to use Safari instead of Chrome on my new 14" MBP and the scrolling SUCKS. None of the options mentioned above seem to exist in Monterey at least. I would have thought Safari would be configured to show off the Pro Motion display, but it's chunky as hell, at least when using a mouse (Logitech MX Anywhere). Scrolling with the trackpad works fine. I'll see if there is some Logitech software that might solve the problem. Same mouse in Chrome gives me buttery smooth scrolling, but it's chunky in Finder. So something isn't right with Montery and Logitech mice.

How to disable smooth scrolling when pressing the arrow keys in Safari for Mac
Did you know you can disable smooth scrolling in the Safari browser on your Mac? Doing so lets you scroll pages line by line with the arrow keys on your keyboard.
Apple added support for smooth webpage scrolling to Safari 16.4, which was released for macOS Monterey and Big Sur. This behavior is also present in Safari for macOS Sonoma, the latest Mac operating system.
With some digging, you can revert to scrolling pages line by line when pressing directional arrow keys on the keyboard. For that to happen, you’ll need to tick off a setting in Safari’s hidden Debug menu, as instructed in this tutorial.
How to disable smooth scrolling in Safari for Mac
To stop Safari’s smooth scrolling behavior, you must toggle an option in Safari’s hidden Debug menu. But first, you must reveal the menu if you haven’t already. You can do so through Terminal, but you’ll need to give the Terminal app permission to access the whole file system on your Mac.
1. Enable Full Disk Access for Terminal
Click the Apple menu and choose System Settings , then select Privacy & Security in the sidebar and click Full Disk Access on the right. Next, slide the switch next to Terminal to the ON position. If Terminal isn’t listed, click the + (Add) icon, navigate to the Applications/Utilities folder on your Mac and double click the Terminal app.
If asked, authenticate with Touch ID, your macOS password or your Apple Watch.
2. Reveal Safari’s hidden Debug menu
With that done, we can now turn on Safari’s hidden Debug menu. Open Terminal from the Applications/Utilities folder, paste the following command into the Terminal window and press Return or Enter to execute it:
With the Debug menu turned on in Safari, we can proceed to the final step.
3. Turn smooth scrolling off
Now open Safari , click the Debug menu and select WebKit Internal Features > EventHandler driven smooth keyboard scrolling . Doing so should remove the checkmark from the option, deactivating smooth scrolling.
With smooth scrolling disabled, pressing an arrow key on the keyboard will no longer scroll a page continuously until you release the key. Instead, the page will move one line at a time.
To reactivate smooth scrolling, toggle the Debug menu option to add a checkmark. When done, you can safely hide the Debug menu again with this Terminal command:
Hiding the Debug menu will not change your smooth scrolling setting.
Which scrolling type are you: Smooth or jumpy?
Smooth scrolling isn’t a biggie as long as you don’t use the arrow keys. But if you’re like me and prefer to scroll an article one line or page at a time using the keyboard, you may want to switch back to the good ol’ jumpy scrolling method.
It would’ve been far better had Apple put this toggle in the Safari preferences, so we could change the scrolling type with a simple checkbox instead of digging through hidden menus. Be that as it may, now you at least have the option to change Safari’s scrolling method in case you’re not a fan of smooth scrolling.

Scrolling Issues on Safari/Chrome iOS
Hi, I'm having issues with scrolling on iOS (web). I have a web app that when you click on different pill shaped menus scrolls to the appropriate/related element on the page. When I click a different pill menu when scrolling is happening I get glitches on iOS browsers (safari/chrome) whereas everything is fine on Chrome Android. The wanted behavior is that when you click on the pill the scrolling goes to the needed item with no glitching or pause. I use jQuery's animate to scroll to the needed element and the scroll listener to detect whether the page is at the right position to illuminate the right pill (make it active).
Is there any advice/recommendations to fix this issue?
Accepted Reply
For anybody having this issue or unnatural scrolling behavior, this css line on your body or concerned div should fix it: -webkit-overflow-scrolling: touch

Statement from President Joe Biden on Iran’s Attacks against the State of Israel
Earlier today, Iran—and its proxies operating out of Yemen, Syria and Iraq—launched an unprecedented air attack against military facilities in Israel. I condemn these attacks in the strongest possible terms.
At my direction, to support the defense of Israel, the U.S. military moved aircraft and ballistic missile defense destroyers to the region over the course of the past week. Thanks to these deployments and the extraordinary skill of our servicemembers, we helped Israel take down nearly all of the incoming drones and missiles.
I’ve just spoken with Prime Minister Netanyahu to reaffirm America’s ironclad commitment to the security of Israel. I told him that Israel demonstrated a remarkable capacity to defend against and defeat even unprecedented attacks – sending a clear message to its foes that they cannot effectively threaten the security of Israel.
Tomorrow, I will convene my fellow G7 leaders to coordinate a united diplomatic response to Iran’s brazen attack. My team will engage with their counterparts across the region. And we will stay in close touch with Israel’s leaders. And while we have not seen attacks on our forces or facilities today, we will remain vigilant to all threats and will not hesitate to take all necessary action to protect our people.
Stay Connected
We'll be in touch with the latest information on how President Biden and his administration are working for the American people, as well as ways you can get involved and help our country build back better.
