This issue was reported by some users on 9.2.1 but has only become widespread since 9.3 was released on 21st March 2016. A long press on a broken link causes the app you’re in to crash, otherwise a standard tap highlights the link but nothing happens. If you haven’t got the problem – don’t install the app (read on for more info).Ī lot of users (including myself and a few friends) are experiencing links in Mail and Messages not working, and some links in Safari, like Google Search results, not opening.

A reboot sometimes temporarily fixes the issue, and turning off JavaScript gets Google search results working again. Short version: there is currently no fix for this – we’re waiting on Apple to resolve. Even reinstalling the app and rebooting doesn’t fix it – the swcd (shared web credentials daemon) crashes once it’s got corrupt data in it. Update One 13:00 March : have updated their association file – it’s now only 4KB – this hasn’t fixed the issue but should prevent new users that install from hitting the same problem. Update Two 15:00 March : it looks like it might not be the size of the association file but an issue with Shared Web Credentials – which allows apps / websites to share login info. Update Three 22:20 March : a few updates have occurred to the app, as these have appeared quicker than Apple would usually review them, my guess would be Apple is working with to try and find a workaround without requiring a whole iOS release. Apparently he spent four hours getting it working. Update Four 11:10 March : there’s a fix! There are a lot of steps, but if you really want to get back in action Wojtek Pietrusiewicz has a fix. I’ve posted a shorter fix – here’s how to fix it with an iTunes sync and Airplane mode!
