dylanisabaddog 6,149 Posted February 12, 2021 Has this symbol suddenly appeared at the bottom left of any one else's screen? And on the subject of strange happenings on my phone, how do I stop it bleeping when someone posts on this site even when I'm not looking at it? At the moment I have to close all Web pages every time I exit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pete Raven 276 Posted February 12, 2021 It's supposed to disappear once you click accept but is sticking around on mobile. The web dev team are looking into it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We have two in this house both work fine with the pinkun Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BroadstairsR 2,273 Posted February 12, 2021 Just reset it and everything now ok. Slight hitch clearly. I was managing with Safari, which I prefer for Mail Online in any case as it has less pop ups than Chrome for that site. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Graham Paddons Beard 2,791 Posted February 12, 2021 You need to clear your history in which ever browser doesn’t work. Then it works . Safari didn’t now does. Started with the Blue shield thingy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nuff Said 5,973 Posted February 12, 2021 Use Firefox, and DuckDuckGo for search, unless you’re happy for Google to track your every move. It’s only going to get worse unless we stand up to them (and by them I mean all the mega-Corps that track ever more of our behaviour - Amazon, Facebook etc as well). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
