How to search for text on a web page in Safari

When you are looking for specific information on the web, it is very useful that you can locate the keywords and find the information you need without having to leaf through all the entire articles. Most of us are familiar with this type of search from a desktop or laptop, but we can also search within web pages at safari. This function will be especially useful on a smaller screen such as that of our iPhone or iPod touch as it highlights the words we are looking for and allows us to quickly view the text to know if the information we need is on that website. Next, we tell you how to find text on a Safari web page something that, as you will see, is very simple.

First of all, you must open the Safari browser app on your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch and navigate to the specific page where you want attempting that information you need. Click on the «Share» icon that you see at the bottom center of the screen and that is identified by a square with an arrow coming out.
