How To Fix iPhone Apps Keep Crashing On iOS 15

Most times Apps can crash or freeze on iPhones/iPads, also on any other platform. Apple’s iOS operating system conceals app crashing on iPhone by quitting the app. Are you experiencing crashing, freezing, or buggy apps, below are tips on how to fix the problem?

Fix Crashing Apps On An iPhone Or iPad

App or Device Crash?

First, identify the problem, is it an App or Device crash? This process is quite easy; if an App you are using, suddenly closes for no reason, then that’s called an App crash. If you’re using an app and it turns out to be indifferent or unreactive whilst you can still access other apps, is a typical example of an App crash. When trying to launch an app and it keeps disappearing, the app is crashing over and over again.

If your phone becomes nonresponsive, it’s probably a device issue. A black screen will pop up on your phone or remain trapped on the Apple logo or symbol if the device has crashed. Again, if your iPhone or iPad is dilatory or tardy for no obvious reason, across multiple apps, then a device has just crashed.

Once you face difficulties connecting your wireless headphones, sending files and documents over AirDrop, or  AirPlay devices, a service used by the operating system has certainly crashed.

Troubleshooting App Crashes iOS 15

Apps are third-party software that runs on an iPhone. Despite the, “it just works,” ideology and phrase of Apple devices, a lot can go wrong while causing apps to crash; becoming unreactive, or refusing to open at all. Problems usually emanate from issues with the codes, unforeseen input, and even hardware prescriptions and restrictions. Apps are designed by humans and humans make mistakes after all.

An App can suddenly disappear if it is crashed. In most cases, reloading solves the problem. When sharing analytics with developers (more on this later), they usually receive a crash report that helps them to prevent the problem from reoccurring.

How to Kill an Unreactive and Indifferent App

An App being unreactive can be killed using the App Switcher. There’s no need to constantly and repeatedly kill apps using this process unless they’re causing issues. The app switcher can be approached using different shortcuts, depending on your iPhone model:

  • iPhone 8 and the previous models (devices with a Home button): Double-tap the Home button until a list of recently-used applications appear or pop-up.
  • iPhone X and advanced models that are yet to come (devices without a Home button): Swipe up from the bottom of your phone screen and flick to the right or Swipe up from the bottom of your phone screen and hold until you see a list of recently-used applications pop-up.

This list can be used to switch between apps raptly. Search for the application causing the issue, then tap and swipe up on it to “throw it away” and close it. The app will then be erased from the list of recently-used apps.

Restarting the App is now another step to be taken. After killing Apps this way, it then takes a little bit longer to open them than it does when they’re been suspended in the background. This is why Apps shouldn’t be unnecessarily killed.

Troubleshooting Device and IOS Crashes

iPhone and iPad make use of Apple’s iOS operating system. Notwithstanding the platform being comparatively unchanging, problems are destined to be seen occasionally. These may comprise; random restarts, software glitches, and freezes that entail physical interference and involvement.

How to Regenerate Your iPhone

Many disputes are fixed by simply restarting or regenerating your iPhone. If you’ve observed obnoxious iOS behavior, like a screen that won’t “sleep” or problems with audio playback, a restart or regeneration might do the trick.

The process used to restart the device depends on the iPhone model:

  • iPhone 8, X, XS, or XR, iPhone 11, iPhone 12, iPhone 13: click and hold Volume Down and Sleep/Wake until “Slide to Power Off” pops up, and then slide the bar to turn off your device.
  • iPhone 7 or the previous models: Click and hold the Sleep/Wake button, either at the top of (iPhone 5s and the previous models) or right-hand side of (iPhone 6 and 7), until “Slide to Power Off” pops up, and then slide the bar to turn off your device.

After your device is turned off, you can restart and regenerate it by tapping the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo surface.
