The share page with function on the iOS app rarely works properly. It constantly tries to share the previous webpage or two that you were on instead of the current address. More often than not, I have to copy the link from the URL bar instead of using the built in function. Very annoying.

### Description:
Sharing a URL for the current page, using the same tab that was used to previously share a different page’s URL, will result in the original URL being shared.
### Steps to Reproduce
1. Open the three dot menu from any page
2. Tap “Share with...”
3. Either share the page or close out of the share window
4. In the same tab, navigate to another website
5. Using steps 1-3, attempt to share the page
6. Observe the link being shared
**Actual result:** Link shared the second time is the same as the first link.
