Anyone else get this issue? Viewing stuff on iPhone 15 iOS 26.0.1 and the pages keep scrolling to the top - impossible to scroll down. I think it is something to do with embedded ads.

Just tested - iPhone16 Safari - Stuff is fine - although I'd consider your issue a feature not a bug.

I found it to be completely blank for several days last week on my iPhone, while it worked fine on my iPad - both on iOS 26, both with the same ad-blockers. But it has come right since.





iPad Pro 11" + iPhone 15 Pro Max + 2degrees 4tw!

Thought you were going to say unreadable due to the sheer number of ads....in every article its almost as if you read 2 sentences then have to scroll past a full screen sized ad...and don't forget those annoying ad popups that take up the whole screen which you need to click x to close....

Yep I have the same issue, is basically unusable,  although most of their content is rubbish these days anyway.  Radio NZ app is great,  use that instead.

It's not just Safari. Ie; I have the same problem on Android latest with Chrome since the new ad implementation.

Even most of their stories are ads!

I really don't understand that myself. I get they exist through ad revenue, but you'd think there's a balance where fewer ads equals greater customer engagement and retention.

 

I don't accept that the current state is optimal. The moment I get ads that takeover the screen, I'm gone.

It took me a long time before I used the Stuff login wall first time recently. Decided I was ok with that.. but.. after login it wants date of birth. Uh no thanks you don't need that at all.

No issue on Android... but could it be due to their blocking of long press to copy page text? I noticed this was introduced in the last couple of weeks, no idea of that causes other problems.
