Re: Safari reopening pages
I just tried it, and it's not just like that. If it kept the little window open for you to close all the tags you liked until you clicked Done, it would be Ok. But it closes and pulls in the next page, not out of history, but off the connection. Thisis the most irritating misuse of your limited bandwidth. An Edit type interaction where you go down, tab them all, those you want to close at least, and then a button to Close(##) would work a treat.

Re: Safari reopening pages

Re: Safari reopening pages
The best I can say is - above centre, well left though not at that edge. But it is a small button to hold the focus on.

Using the close button as you have described it below is a bit slow and kind of a pain for me. Again, for me, just me. After experimenting, I did find that using my swiping technique is faster and results are more consistent and easily replicated. 1. I launched about 10 Google searches using Siri. 2. I then went about closing each webpage. 3. I placed my finger right above the Home button then swiped to the right to the pages button. I double-tapped on this Pages button. 4. I once again placed my finger right above the Home button on the screen and slightly to the left (11:30 o clock), and I landed on New page. 5. I swiped 3 times to the left until I landed on Close page button. I double-tapped on this Close button. the webpage closed. 6. I once again placed my index finger right above the Home button, and I swiped to the left 3 times. I double-tapped on Close button. 7. I repeated steps 5 and 6 until I closed all remaining webpages. 8. I know all webpages have been closed because I do not hear new page, I now hear Utilities whenever I place my finger right above the Home button. Thanks for sticking with me and showing me your technique. In this case, I get better results swiping. :) Joseph - Original Message - From: David Chittenden dchitten...@gmail.com To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Saturday, August 24, 2013 7:40 PM Subject: Re: Safari reopening pages On my iPhone 5, the close button is a small button just below the address line which is between the two images.

Re: Safari reopening pages
Once in the pages area, I only have to double-tap repeatedly on the close page button. Knowing where the close page button is on the screen is a very big benefit. The power of the touchscreen is that one gets a two-dimensional view. This is very effective when a person explores the screen rather than just relying on flicking. The pages control window remains open until closed.

Re: Safari reopening pages
Is there anyone else who can replicate the claim below? I like to think I have good visual/spatial abilities,, but I can't easily nor quickly find the close button to double-tap it in an effort to quickly close all pages in succession as David described. Even when I do find the Close button and it closes a page, I'm then placed on a spot on the webpage where I have to once again have to flick to hunt down the close button as I stated in my previous message. In short, I cannot double tap repeatedly in an effort to quickly close 10 pages one after the other. I'm using latest version of IOS on my iPod Touch 5th gen.

Re: Safari reopening pages
Your reply demonstrates that I am not communicating properly. When you are flicking through a page, you are not locating the button's actual physical location on the touchscreen. If you know where the button is physically on the screen, you just need to touch that spot again to be on the button again. Placing your finger on the actual physical location of the button uses spatial orientation. Flicking to the button utilises serial computer navigation, not physical spatial orientation.

Re: Safari reopening pages
Well, I stated as clearly as I could that one can't easily find the close button so one has to resort to swiping to locate the close button when using Safari. I have very good success placing my index finger on or very close to most items within the Settings menu without having to swipe to locate the item. (In short, I don't know what question you are trying to answer.) At this point I'm going to let it go because I can't make my point any clearer. No one else has stated that finding the close button is at pixel X and Y (Exaggeration), so I'm going to assume I'm not alone. (Smile).

Re: Safari reopening pages
On my iPhone 5, the close button is a small button just below the address line which is between the two images. The close button is on the left side, indented a little, about one third down the page.

Re: Safari reopening pages
Ok David, figured out what you were trying to convey. Using the close button as you have described it below is a bit slow and kind of a pain for me. Again, for me, just me. After experimenting, I did find that using my swiping technique is faster and results are more consistent and easily replicated. 1. I launched about 10 Google searches using Siri. 2. I then went about closing each webpage. 3. I placed my finger right above the Home button then swiped to the right to the pages button. I double-tapped on this Pages button. 4. I once again placed my finger right above the Home button on the screen and slightly to the left (11:30 o clock), and I landed on New page. 5. I swiped 3 times to the left until I landed on Close page button. I double-tapped on this Close button. the webpage closed. 6. I once again placed my index finger right above the Home button, and I swiped to the left 3 times. I double-tapped on Close button. 7. I repeated steps 5 and 6 until I closed all remaining webpages. 8. I know all webpages have been closed because I do not hear new page, I now hear Utilities whenever I place my finger right above the Home button. Thanks for sticking with me and showing me your technique. In this case, I get better results swiping. :) Joseph - Original Message - From: David Chittenden dchitten...@gmail.com To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Saturday, August 24, 2013 7:40 PM Subject: Re: Safari reopening pages On my iPhone 5, the close button is a small button just below the address line which is between the two images.

Re: Safari reopening pages
On iOs double tap the pages button at the bottom of the screen, then double tap the close button on all pages displayed. Eventually you will see a screen with untitled, the address bar, the search field, etc. On 23/08/2013 10:44, Adrienne Sinclair Chalmers wrote: Hi Can anyone tell me if there is a way to stop Safari reopening all the pages you had open in your last session?
