Safari on IOS 18.2.1 defaulting to HTTPS again.

Prior to latest update (18.2.1) on iPhone, safari worked perfectly with http addresses.

It is now defaulting to https again and none of the prior answers seem to work.

Eventually wanders off to try http but the delay is very annoying and it is not doing what was asked as the link has http in it.

Anyone have suggestions/solutions?




iPhone 15 Pro, iOS 18

Further information: the Safari feature flag ‘HTTPS-by-default (HTTPS-First)’ setting makes no difference to the behaviour.
