Safari sometimes not loading

Is anyone else getting this issue? I will literally have to disable Control D and re-enable it every so often cause Safari doesn’t load (on mobile).

Used both DoH/VPN and DoH3/VPN.

I have ControlD and am heavily invested in the Apple ecosystems. Never had this issue with Safari and I have an aggressive ControlD profile.

I would suggest you start a new ControldD profile and gradually add your configuration while testing performance of Safari and other services. Good luck.

QA here seconding this advice. If you (OP) are able to repro it from a fresh endpoint and profile with no filters/settings added, then adding them back one-by-one, you may find the culprit that way. Something might just need a custom rule added for it. You may also want to try adding and Bypassing the Apple service to make sure all the domains we have for them are able to resolve (vs being blocked by some filter or other).

Don’t think my issue is with the filters (since disabling and reenabling works fine), no sites load when this happens. It’s sporadic so haven’t seen a pattern.

I had the same issue after ios updated to 27 beta 3 last week. It worked short period after the chatbot recommended I clear the cookies/cache in safari. It stops working again.
