I don’t use my iPhone much. I rarely make or receive calls on it. I’ll do the odd text, but I don’t ‘live’ on it. Sometimes though, I find myself someplace I need to kill some time and I’ll try a bit of web browsing.
Safari opens onto the last page I visited. How do I A) Set it to open up to a home page; and B) Clear history?
Thanks. I’ve cleared History.
I followed the instructions on setting the Safari homepage, and it gave me an icon on my desktop (‘phonetop’?). But when I went to CNN, closed Safari, and then re-opened Safari, it opened to CNN. I see that the new icon works (I set it to google); but is there a way to set a homescreen in Safari, such that when I just open Safari, it opens to that page?
No. The only way to do it is pick your preferred ‘home’ site, use the function in the first link to add that page to your home screen, then use the icon generated by that step in place of ever opening Safari from it’s own icon.
Ultimately, what’s the difference though? You can put your link icon where Safari was and banish the Safari icon to a never-used last page of icons and the only difference will be what color the icon is.
Thanks, beowulff and Pork Rind. I had the same question and now I have a nice, new, usable icon on my phonetop.
