This demonstrates an issue with SwiftUI's WebView on iPadOS.
To repro, testing on iPad Simulator OS 26.2, macOS 26.2, Xcode 26.2.

Download and unzip this project: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1z3MobjDf_RvvOtriXtinXvrJ7rGHwZRs/view?usp=share_link
-
Set up Signing and Run the swiftui-webview App target on simulator (I'm using iPad Pro 13-inch (M5 simulator)
-
Tap/click the fullscreen [ ] button in the bottom left corner of the webpage.
-
Tap/click the 'X' button in the top left, to exit fullscreen.
Result: The WebView exits fullscreen, but there is no content loaded, just a white background. It's also now not possible to visit other URLs - the WebView appears to be unresponsive and not repaint.
This does not appear to affect macOS 26.2, just iPadOS.
