Out of nowhere just get a. Amazon page taken over, which I have to close.
There's no ad or link I'm accidentally clicking in sight.
Anyone else. Just the last couple of days.

45.3.5 here too. It’s literally just happened again while reading a different thread.

JustanAssistant · 13/05/2026 12:40

I’m also getting it - app 45.3.5 on iPhone. V frustrating!

RumNotRun · 13/05/2026 11:44

I'm so glad I have seen this. I thought I was being fat fingered! @KellyMumsnet my app is 45.3.5 I have checked for updates but there are none available

Morning, everyone. Sorry to hear this is still happening. Could we ask anyone experiencing this issue to check the exact version of the app you are using please? You can check this by opening the app and then opening the profile menu in the top right hand corner of the screen. You should then be able to see the version number at the bottom of the menu. If you could pop that here in the thread that might just help us work out what's going on. Thanks! Flowers

And me. iPhone.

Pernicketywishes · 12/05/2026 19:57

Me too. I’m on an iPhone.

Sunshineandgrapefruit · 12/05/2026 19:49

Glad it's not just me. So irritating.

jmh740 · 12/05/2026 19:04

Me too

PlattyCat · 12/05/2026 18:58

Still as bad as ever for me. I've had five pop during the last 10 minutes

Desperatelydoomscrolling · 12/05/2026 11:25

I have it slightly less today but I've still had it open 3/4 times in the last half hour I've been browsing. I already use Amazon loads, so it won't help them, more make them get less sales from me as I'm starting to get irrationally annoyed when I see their webpage now 😂 Will check to see if I need to update the app again.

BeckyAMumsnet · 11/05/2026 15:22

Thanks, everyone. Appreciate this is infuriating. We’re investigating now.

Tarkan · 11/05/2026 02:37

I’m getting it constantly too. On iPhone and checked the App Store and my app is up to date. Some threads it’s happening multiple times making them impossible to read because it’s so frustrating.

Dontknowwhattobelieve2 · 10/05/2026 12:56

Had it twice just scrolling through this thread.

PlattyCat · 10/05/2026 11:15

This morning I'm getting amazon pop ups when there isn't even any ads

Secretsquirrelshh · 09/05/2026 17:27

I’ve also updated and it’s just as bad. The lightest scroll opens up Amazon in a separate app (iPhone).

hellospring26 · 09/05/2026 17:20

It’s infuriating. I have updated.

Katisha · 09/05/2026 14:46

just updated and if anything it’s worse

BeckyAMumsnet · 09/05/2026 14:33

Hello everyone. Can you please check the App store for an update? Thank you.

Katisha · 09/05/2026 13:50

Still here in iPhone as well

PlattyCat · 09/05/2026 11:48

It is really bad. It might cure my Mumsnet addiction since it's so frustrating to use 😂

socks1107 · 09/05/2026 10:08

Still happening this morning unfortunately

PlattyCat · 09/05/2026 09:47

This is happening to me as well. I'm using the app on the Sony Phone. I can't scroll passed the Amazon add without it thinking I've clicked it.

youalright · 08/05/2026 15:42

Same

Tcateh · 08/05/2026 15:40
