Force Safari Page to Reload on iDevices

Sometimes Safari on iPhone (and iPad) refuses to display a new version of a web page. You might notice this particularly if you are a web programmer. It looks like changes which have been made don't exist. There is no simple command to force a reload, like there is on the desktop version of the app, so use this workaround:

Turn ON AirPlane mode.
Turn OFF wifi.
Refresh the page (it will fail; that's what we want).
Turn AirPlane mode back off.
Refresh the page to get the updated version.

This fixes a number of issues; it seems to fix Airdrop problems as well.



I usually write a blog post about once a week. The latest post can be viewed here: Manufactured Outrage: We might be beginning to win some battles, but the war is far from over.
