Hi there! I understand your Bus Escape app is continuously opening the web browser during gameplay. Let’s get this sorted out for you. Just to clarify a bit:

- Does this happen right when you start playing, or randomly during the game?
- Are you seeing any ads or pop-ups just before the browser opens?
- Have you tried restarting the app or your iPhone recently?

Meanwhile, here’s a straightforward plan to start troubleshooting this issue on your iPhone with iOS 18.6.1:

1. Force close and restart the app:
- Swipe up from the bottom (or double-click Home if you have one) to open the app switcher.
- Find Bus Escape and swipe up to close it.
- Then reopen the app and see if the browser still opens.

2. Check for app updates:
- Open the App Store, tap your profile picture, then scroll to see if there’s an update available for Bus Escape.
- If yes, update it to get the latest fixes.

3. Clear Safari cache and website data:
Sometimes cached data can cause strange behavior with in-app browsers.
- Go to Settings > Safari > Clear History and Website Data.

4. Check app permissions:
- Go to Settings > Bus Escape (scroll down to find the app settings).
- See if “Open Links” or anything related to browser access is enabled. If so, toggle it off.

5. Disable Background App Refresh:
This can sometimes stop apps from triggering background processes causing browser pop-ups.
- Go to Settings > General > Background App Refresh > Turn off for Bus Escape.

6. Reinstall the app:
- If the issue persists, delete Bus Escape from your device and reinstall it fresh from the App Store.

If you have already tried these steps, or if the browser opens with specific suspicious links or ads, it might be a bug in the app version. Some users on forums have reported similar issues where the game tries to open a local host or browser unexpectedly1.

In that case, I’d recommend:
- Reporting the bug directly to the app developers through their support contact (usually via their app page in the App Store or email).
- Keeping an eye out for an update that fixes this issue.

Let me know how these steps go for you or if you want me to help walk through any specific one! Are you satisfied with the solution I provided?
