iOS 9.3 certain web pages zoomed in when loaded

    I saw this in all the iOS 9.3 betas, and wasn't an issue with iOS 9.2.1.
    When some web pages are loaded now with Safari, they're zoomed in too much. I have to manually scale them back to fit the screen again.

    This is especially noticeable in the "talk to.." section of this site...

    Noticed it too on a few sites like soundcloud too.

    Anyone got this too?

    If I click on the link, page loads fine, but if I go into one of the sections like three or meteor that's when the pages are loading zoomed in.
    Have a look and see if it's the same...

    When I open boards, it's zoomed into the top left corner

    It happens for me too.

    I've always had this though, as far as I know it's because the talk to me section isn't optimised for mobile devices. So it switches from the touch site to the normal boards one. Don't think they have a touch enabled version for that.

    On other websites this could be the same unless they have a mobile version.

    Some websites will load zoomed when there's no mobile version, but I always found it was down to how the website was coded as opposed to an iOS issue.

    If I go to the full site and to the talk to section it's zoomed in but I always use the touch site on my iPhone.

    Get what you're saying. But before the latest update to 9.3 all was working fine, never had this issue before. Assumed Apple changed something in Safari settings behind the scenes.

    Have you tried to reset your cache setting under Settings -> Safari -> Clear History and Website Data

    The actual 'talk to' section works ok for me but clicking into one of the subforums shows it zoomed in. Suspect it's a vbulletin issue.
