Android Question

Guest
Running android 5.1 here. On most web sites I go to from my bookmark what comes up is an old screen from several hours ago. I have to refresh the website before I get current information. This started happening a couple months ago.

Example if i go to www.intellicast.com the radar map will be an old one from the last time I checked it. Might be over a day old. I have to do the refresh before I get a current map.

Almost like google 5.1 is saving data by just posting the last old display.

Any ideas???

Hi

Well, you are ahead of the crowd with android 5.1 - didn't know it has been released yet!! ;)

It sound like your browser is caching websites in the same way that most PC browsers do. It speeds up access an is good for static websites, but irritating for ones that are often updated. Look in your browser app's settings and see if you can disable caching of webpages.
