So this is a new issue (iOS 26) that has never ever happened before and it’s driving me up the wall.
1. I’ll make a new tab. It’ll appear at the bottom of the list.
2. I’ll browse some sites in it.
3. I’ll go about using my phone for other things.
4. At some point, I’ll open Safari back up. It will open on that tab.
5. BUT, this tab has now been MOVED to the MIDDLE of my tab list.
I’ve got about 50 tabs open, and this tab that was at the bottom because it was the newest tab, is now in the middle of the list.
It’s not obvious that this has happened, and so any tabs that I spawn from that tab (Open In Background) are now ALSO in the middle of the tab list.
This is driving me crazy because I rely on the tab list for knowing what to go back and read. Since it’s reordering itself like this, I keep missing things that needed attention.
Anyone else encounter this and have a fix?
