Hi Donal, Not sure if this is the best or only way, but here's how I do it. 1. Launch Safari. 2. Enter the desired default URL in the address bar and go to that page. I use the standard about:blank. 3. Open the Safari Utilities menu and choose Add to Home Screen. You will be prompted to supply a name for this shortcut and once you're done, you'll have a new icon on one of your home screens that will always open to the same page you specified.
