IPad Seemingly Locked Onto One Product Page

Refreshes Every Few Minutes

[RedBar]

Can an iPad refresh a page if it has been bookmarked / saved?

My time 02.10 until 07.40 Monday and then again this morning with the page refreshing every 2-4 minutes.

It's not causing me any problem other than making it the most popular product page, the url is example.com/specific-product.html.

Checking my logs this iPad has now visited nine times from Los Angeles using Icloud Private Relay.

Could an iPad bookmark / save cause this?

Apart from blocking that entire IP range and changing / removing the url, what else can I do?

If a person drags your icon to their device it can be a bookmark and if they share it with others, it might be shared using their iCloud account. Unless it is causing excess bandwidth issues, I would not block the range.

No bandwidth issue. I am "assuming" that it is someone logging-in at 17.00 LA time for their afternoon / evening with that specific page being constantly updated every few minutes to the cloud by Apple's always-on connection.

I have seen similar massive bandwidth usage by iPhones here and having to be turned off by people with limited data plans however I'm pretty sure that this is the first time I have ever seen this for a specific page of mine.

i know people who have fifty tabs up and never close them down, which would drive me nuts. i suppose safari might refresh them in the background every time they open the browser
