With iOS 13, Apple has made scrolling through pages a lot easier on iPhone or iPad. You can now grab the scroll bar on the right side of the page and use it to scroll through the page. This wikiHow teaches you how to use the scroll bar on iPhone or iPad.

Steps

Make sure you have the latest updates. This scroll bar functionality is a new feature added in iOS 13. If you do not have iOS 13, make sure to update your iPhone or iPad to download the latest version of iOS. Note: Some older iPhone and iPad models may not be compatible with iOS 13.

Open a web page or document. The new scroll bar feature is system-wide. You can use it on any web page or document that doesn't fit on a single screen.

Swipe up to display the scroll bar. The scroll bar appears as a thin line on the right side of the page.

Tap and hold the scroll bar. It's the thin line on the right side of the page when you swipe up. The scroll bar will get thicker when you tap and hold it.

Drag the scroll bar up and down. When the scroll bar gets thicker, you can drag the scroll bar up and down to scroll through the page. This allows you to scroll through large sections a lot quicker.
