so for the past couple of days I’ve been having a Spanish ad randomly play on my iPhone XS Max. It happens at random times. While I’m sleeping. While I’m surfing the web. While the phone is in my pocket. It is always the same exact ad. And it doesn’t matter if the screen is on or off, or on silent or not. I have zero clue what is causing this. And have not been able to find anything on google. Has anyone else experienced this?

What does it look like? Is it a notification? Something else?
 
Nothing. There is nothing on the screen. No pop ups. No apps running in the background. Just nothing…
 
Might be worth clearing out your Safari data and/or perhaps even something like resetting your settings.
Tried that, and it didn’t happen at all yesterday and most of today. But just happened again. I might just have to wipe and start fresh.
