Apple’s Safari browser is specifically designed to work well with Apple Devices. However, sometimes it bothers users with “Problem occurred with this webpage so it was reloaded” message.
Problem Occurred with this Webpage so it was Reloaded
Although, “Problem Occurred with this webpage so it was reloaded” message does not prevent you from browsing, it is annoying and indicates browser or network related problems on your device.
In most cases, this message is due to iPhone being out of Random Access Memory, but it can also occur due to clogged up Safari Browser Cache, Incorrect Network Settings and other reasons.
1. Restart iPhone
The simplest way to clear up memory on iPhone is to close running apps and terminate stuck processes on your device.
1. Go to Settings > General > scroll down and tap on Shut Down.
2. On the next screen, use the Slider to Power OFF iPhone.
3. Wait for iPhone to Power OFF > After 30 seconds Restart iPhone by pressing the Power Button.
After iPhone restarts, open Safari browser and see if it is now working properly.
2. Clear Safari History & Website Data

1. Go to Settings > Safari > scroll down and tap on Clear History and Website Data option.
