Most of the browsers you use on laptop or desktop computers have pop-up blockers that are enabled by default. This prevents lots of annoying advertisements from appearing, as well as minimizing the number of windows and tabs that are open at once. Fortunately the Safari browser on your iPhone 5 has a pop-up blocker as well, which can be enabled with just a few short steps.
iPhone 5 Pop-Up Blocking in Safari
The pop-up blocker does a great job of preventing unwanted pop-ups, but it also blocks pop-ups that you might actually want. So keep the steps below in mind if you are on a Web page that wants to open a pop-up window that you want to view, as you will need to stop blocking pop-ups briefly to view it.
Step 1: Touch the Settings icon.
Step 2: Scroll down and select the Safari option.
Step 3: Scroll to the bottom of the screen and move the slider to the right of Block Pop-Ups to the On position.
