Ok, when I open some web pages on my phone the page will start loading and then all of the sudden it switches over to my app center. What gives?!? 4951

EDIT: I went and searched some Apple forums really quick, and saw that it is a problem that keeps popping up. It seems that websites have found a loophole to get you to accidentally touch an ad on their page, which redirects to the app store. It was fixed after IOS 8 came out, but it seems they've found their way through again. I have never had it happen myself, but I don't use Safari on my phone that much either. Hopefully they fix it again soon because that sounds like it would be annoying.  4951

@aggiebutterfly: Mine did that today for some strange reason. Just thought I hit a wrong key. Weird, huh? Must be a system glitch.

This has happened to me as well while using chrome browser on iPhone. It's possibly a website problem or, worse yet, an iOS problem. Keeping fingers crossed that it gets fixed soon. 4951

This is the simplest explanation I've seen:Website advertisement companies have found a way to circumvent the protections introduced in iOS 8 to stop users from being kicked to the App Store because of certain cleverly-coded java-script advertisements.And this is my favorite response to the problem:Emoticon  4951

Make sure ur updates are done, system and apps. Try holding the power button and home button till the apple logo appears. If none of that works use chrome. That's what I use on my iPad. 4951

My iphone and apps are up to date and this happens to me.  These are ads that auto redirect (without you clicking on them).  I don't know how they do it but it is aggravating.  So much so, that when it happens, I stop reading and visiting that particular forum/webpage for a while.   4951
