I’ve a problem that’s driving me nuts 🤬 Since installing a iPad OS 26.2 software upgrade on my iPad which is a 9th generation I’m now having to log into RHP every single time I take a 5 minute break from the site.

I’ve never had to keep doing this before. Seems I’ve now got some extra privacy setting installed by iPad?

This update is awful; everything is bad about it from a user interface pov. Also there are privacy settings to change (as usual). There’s some good vloggers on YT who will walk you through it. However I have no issues logging into / out of RHP at the moment. There are reports on social media of millions of people blocking the updates since 26.1.

I don’t know what’s going on at Apple but they seem have moved away from the traditional flat clean interface to an increasingly glossy, liquidy over-complicated more style. I hate it. More clicks to perform simple functions etc. still prefer it to android though which has always been awful especially with “Bixby”.

Is there a way to revert to the previous version of iOS?

I have an Android phone where it seems the updates happen whether one likes it or not (but I mostly use it as if it were a landline phone, so it's not much of a problem for me).

In other forums I have seen that macOS updates (which seem to be at-will instead of automatic) often break 3rd-party apps until the 3rd-party vendors recompile their apps.

Hmm, but just guessing -- swipe or whatever to get to the Settings, look for Privacy, and maybe somewhere there you could adjust the screen-locking settings to bump it up from 5 minutes.

I have a newish iPad for testing, so I'll try to reproduce this.

Thank you, I’ve been rummaging around in my iPad settings to no avail however, since posting this thread it’s miraculously stopped logging me out? 🙂

Strange isn’t it? I’m convinced these devices hear what we’re talking
about in addition to what we’re searching on the internet? Very spooky 🫣

I admit, Bixby blows.

That's why I never even set it up on my Samsung.
