Safari login me off sites every-time I close it.

Hi all
Apologies if this has been discussed in this forum. This issue is driving me bonkers and it only started with iOS 18. Every time I use Safari browser to long on different sites I have to go through the log in page to add user name/passwords, even If I only had it in use few minutes before. It is not related to only one site but to pretty much all sites that require account. Before iOS 18 I used to be able to stay logged in to these sites but now it seems to eject me out every time I close the browser. Any idea how I can make it the way it used to be, staying logged on for longer duration. Thank You

It sounds like you are using private browsing. In Safari when you see the address bar you should see an icon (bottom-right for the default with bottom tabs) that looks like two squares. Tap that - are you in a private browsing window? Another way to tell is that the address bar has a black background with white text for the private browsing window, and either a white background with black text for light mode, or a gray background with white text for normal windows.
