Safari still taking a beating

[jaleelhamid]

I came back to the iPhone after a year from android and oh my god Safari is still slow? It won't load facebook? Keeps getting stuck I opened up chrome loaded in secs anyone else having this issue

I find Safari to be very fast. Why not download the Facebook app? It's free?

Safari is running smoothly and fast on all of my Apple devices. You should use the Facebook app.

Very fast here. Chrome on iOS is such lagfest.

I have noticed that Safari is kind of slow too. I open the same website using Chrome, Firefox, and Safari, and Chrome and Firefox opened it rather quickly. Safari took noticeably longer to open it.

Is there a way to set a default browser in iOS?

There was an issue with Safari this morning. Apple is supposed to have fixed it.

But it's not only facebook its other sites as well. With the new chrome update speeding up the browser and reducing crashes chrome is really fast with the latest update. I want to stick with safari but it's slow ;(

I do as well. No nothing about that facebook. Do not care for that. Web pages are quite fast to load. My internet connection is close to 90 mpbs.

Seems to be working ok here also.

I wonder does Apple still force 3rd party browsers to use apples web browser API's? Essentially making all 3rd party browsers "Safari" with benefits? Things may have changed.

I don't know. But I do know when Safari fails, I can go to the Puffin browser, and all is well. Puffin rocks!

What phone/pad ? in my admittedly limited experience Safari might be Google haunted and not very tightly focused but it works.... every time.
Where on the planet are you ?
