Problems with Safari on iPad since 5.0.1

Question

safari

In safari on the first ipad (ios 5.0.1), two things are very annoying:
- It unloads tabs, which, on the reverse transition, starts reloading them. This is very annoying, especially on 3g internet.
- Sticks to the anchor (www.example.com/#anchor) when the page is not fully loaded (external components are stupid, IMHO - banners for example). Those. scrolling fails - always returns back. We need to reload the page.

I really want to know if this is fixed in 5.1 or what other browser would you recommend?

Answer 1

I won’t say anything about the anchor, because there was no such thing. But reloading tabs due to lack of memory. Hardly anything will change there.

Answer 2

Updated iPad to 5.1. After the 7th open tab, the previous ones began to be unloaded.
I'm trying to use Dolphin Browser HD, but have not yet formed a solid opinion about it.

Answer 3

How is it unloaded? Tabs close or starts to load when you go? And I wonder if it's always 7, or when some heavy page like Google Reader opens, then the number of cached pages really drops?
How are the field tests of a non-default browser by the way?

Answer 4

Try installing Opera Mini
. From the pros:
-free
-compression of traffic (you just need it with 3g)
-synchronization with the desktop version, if you use it
-lack of unloading pages even after restarting.
Of the minuses:
- layout floats on some sites
- often loads mobile versions of sites (iPhone), which looks terrible on the iPad. In this case, I could not access the normal version of the site.
Personally, I prefer to use safari. I use opera only sometimes, and that is probably due to the fact that opera is my desktop browser (I sit with wifi)
