"a secure connection could not be established" error (iPhone, updating)

[trixie11]

Same phone for years, same Android OS for years, no changes at all to any phone or security setting AT ALL. Have gradually seen this problem affect one - then two - then more and now as of last week - a lot more websites that I had been able to load with zero problems in the past. It now includes all of my local news and local TV websites which was a major problem during a recent major snow storm where I really relied on the phone to know what was going on in the area.

It does not matter at all if I am on data or wifi - and it doesn't matter what wifi I am on either. I have deleted everything, cleared everything out, reset everything, etc....and nothing works. It appears as if this is a change that the websites are making on their end - so my question is - is there any way to fix this problem on my end or do I just have to get a new phone?

Thanks.

Same phone. Same android OS. Hmm same android OS....try updating your OS. If that doesn’t work time for a new phone. My iPhone is a two year old model. My iPad is three years old and both have no issues, but they both are running the latest iOS.

What phone and what version of Android? Newer browsers may not be fully supported by the older OS.
