Safari crashes consistently after 18.1.1 update on iPhone 15 Plus

I have cleared cache, deleted history data, and tried a bunch of online suggestions but no success. It crashes CONSISTENTLY after running for about 3 minutes, making me think it is some type of timing glitch whereby a command activates right at the same time after Safari is opened EACH TIME.  I'm using a 15Plus iPhone.

I posted this question 24 days ago now. STILL NO PROVEN FIX. And 18.2 is out with no solution apparently. Soooo: IS THERE NO SOLUTION FROM "APPLE CENTRAL" because they are IGNORING THE PROBLEM or... BECAUSE NO ONE in Cupertino, CA or AT ANY "GENIUS BAR" ON EARTH HAS FIGURED OUT THE PROBLEM YET? No one at MY APPLE STORE IN SYRACUSE, NY could help me, that I know. 


I've had to resort to substituting CHROME and I find it not nearly as easy to use, such as adding website shortcuts to the screen of my iPhone (instead of to either Bookmarks or Reading List). COME ON APPLE COMMUNITY! Certainly SOMEONE has been successful at preventing the SEQUENTIAL CRASHES ABOUT EVERY 2 min, 45 sec. 


Does that FACT give ANY GEEK ON THE PLANET a key clue into what 18.1.1 did to poor SAFARI? From the responses to my initial posting on 11/24/24, NEARLY THREE DOZEN HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUE, which RULES OUT that MY DOWNLOADING EXPERIENCE OF 18.1.1 is unique to what I had in my data, history, or cookies prior. 


THAT FACT would seem to rank THIS ISSUE AS ONE THAT "APPLE CENTRAL" SHOULD'VE FIXED BY NOW AND INCLUDED IN 18.2. WHY NOT? This is an extremely annoying problem. PLEASE FIX IT, MAYBE, BEFORE CHRISTMAS DAY A WEEK FROM TODAY?  Thank you.

Another month has passed and still NO SOLUTION TO MY ISSUE WITH SAFARI CRASHING NEARLY EVERY 3 MUNUTES AFTER I DOWNLOADED 18.1.1. No fix was mentioned in 18.1.2 nor, apparently, is one believed to be included in 18.1.3!


THIS MUST BE THE BEST KEPT APPLE SECRET OF ALL!! PLEASE FELLOW APPLE/MAC USERS: I've resorted to using CHROME and I don't find it nearly as functional. Would a couple of you "geniuses" NOT EMPLOYED BY APPLE see if you can't find what's making my--and a bunch of other I noticed--users' SAFARIs CRASH ALMOST EVERY 3 Minutes (I was told more precisely it is at 2:40-2:45 each & every time).


I mention this fact again because even after two full months, the crashes occur consistently on that schedule which suggests to me the coding problem is precisely at the same moment each time AFTER SAFARI IS ACTIVATED. I hope this helps in finding the problem. Thanks again Community. R A H


P.S. Correction once more: I'm using a 14 Plus iPhone, NOT a 15 Plus as I mistakenly wrote initially.
