I don’t like the redesign of Safari on iPhone or iPad. I’ve been using exclusively iPad and iPhone whilst moving house, and on the iPhone 13 Mini 90% of the time when managing tabs I close the app to my Home Screen when swiping up from the tabs and on the iPad if I want to ‘click’ a different tab I have to either scroll up a bit or click the small url bar which scrolls my page up to the very top to see the tabs. Both very annoying. Using the Smart Keyboard on the iPad I can use keyboard shortcuts but that’s not the point.
I find on my iPad that if I tap next to the url bar and not the very top, then that shows the tabs and doesn’t scroll right to the top. Annoying having to be so precise.
