How to FIx Apps Crashing issue on iPhone/iPad?

If you are unable to launch apps as they crash time and again, you have to reboot your iOS device.
Hold down on the Home button and sleep/wake button at once until you see the Apple logo on the screen.

Check Out App Updates
Make sure to update the apps which are crashing on your device. On numerous occasions, this trick has helped me solve the problem. Hopefully, it clicks again. App Store → Updates → Update All.


Turn off Background App Refresh
Apps keep on getting refreshed in the background using Wi-Fi or Cellular data. Turning off the background app refresh will not just save tons of battery, data but also help you troubleshoot this problem.
Step #1. Tap on Settings → General → Background App Refresh



Step #2. Toggle Off Background App Refresh.

Disable Automatic App Downloads
Do you want to automatically download new purchase ( including free) made on other iOS device synced with the same iCloud account? No. It’s better to disable it.
Step #1. Tap on Settings → iTunes & App Store.


Step #2. Toggle Off Auto App Download.

Delete the App and Reinstall It
Apps continue to pile up documents and data in the background. And over the time, it becomes so problematic that it doesn’t allow the app to function properly. In order to resolve it, simply delete the app and reinstall it.
To delete the app; just tap and hold until the app icon starts wiggling. Then tap on the cross sign and confirm in the popup.


Reset All Settings
Personally, I’ve been able to fix the app crashing issue quite a few times by resetting all settings. Of course, it’s a bit painful as you will have to enter Wi-Fi passwords again but it can do the trick. Settings → General → Reset → Reset All Settings.



If all the above-mentioned tips don’t work, then you can Restore your iPhone.
