Why does a random text page open over my website on iPad?

When I open a website page it opens and immediately another page with text just opens over it. It’s the same company, but not the page I opened it’s only text and has no way to open anything else. I see someone else had this problem before, but don’t see any resolution. I’m about ready to throw this thing against the wall!!

As the other person said it’s on every search engine that this happens.

Are you seeing this with just the native Safari browser App, or do you see the same behaviour with other browser Apps - such as Firefox or Chrome?


For Safari, if you are seeing unexpected pop-up windows, try changing your Safari settings:

Settings > Apps > Safari > Block Pop-ups - set to ON
