My pre-m1 iPadPro has been very slow loading pages in Safari since iPadOS 26. Seems a lot of people are having similar issues. Fixes mentioned range from clearing caches to a complete factory reset.

The solution for me was to go into Settings -> WiFi -> DNS and change the DNS from automatic to manual and configure with a decent DNS.

Unclear what changed to cause the problem (other than the great plague of ‘26) but things feel snappy again. YMMV

Related: what DNS are people using these days?

For all the years I’ve been using Apple products (39 and counting) I’ve always been one to update the OSs on my devices. I’ve usually waited for the .1 update because there’s nearly always been some weird issues, but I’ve held off on the “26” updates across the board because of all the UI problems people are talking about. I’m becoming curmudgeonly in my old age.
