Frequently, my Firefox (on latest iOS, iPhone 7) loads what appears to be blank pages ... until you try scrolling, and bits of the website appear and disappear. This was happening constantly using Google as my search engine so I tried DuckDuck Go and ... well, it sort of works except for the options bar which sort of floats around on the middle of the screen as you scroll. What the heck?

Here’s an example of the weirdness on DuckDuck Go. It’s doing something similar on this page as I type this.

  • Did you try to force Firefox app to close? From the Home screen, swipe up from the bottom of the screen and in the middle of the screen. Select Firefox, than swipe up to close Firefox.
  • Are you running Firefox for iOS version 23?
  • If you are still unable to load DuckDuckGo.com correctly , you can also try to delete "Cookies and Site Data". Go to Preferences > Cookies and Site Data > Clear Data...
