Leave a comment letting me know if this solved your app-crash problem. (Read Apple's official how-to if you want to learn more.) That's a reset-or, if you prefer my terminology, a reboot. Then the screen will go blank keep holding the buttons until you see the Apple logo. First you'll see the aforementioned red slider just keep holding the buttons. However, I recommend a full-on "reset," which is performed by holding down the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons simultaneously for about 10 seconds. This doesn't meet my definition of rebooting, but it may well solve your app problem.
That's done by holding the Sleep/Wake button (the one on top) for several seconds until you see the red slider, then sliding it. A "restart" is when you power off the unit and then turn it back on again. My estimate is that it'll work 95 percent of the time.ĭon't know how to reset your iDevice? First, let's clarify our terms.

Indeed, the App Store is packed to the gills with user reviews like these: This will become evident to anyone who's ever tried to figure out Notification Center or organize contacts into groups.Īnd I guarantee that at some point or another, you've installed a shiny new app, only to have it crash on you, either the moment you ran it or maybe a few minutes in.
