App Crashing

Device: iPhone 13
Operating system: IOS 26.6.1

IF crashed whilst on departure from KDFW. First time this happened to me on 26.4. Please help to avoid this from happening again.

Hi @IFlyer ,

Any further details about the flight? What are your graphics settings? Airplane count? Anti-Aliasing? FPS? Software Cache? Wi-Fi or mobile data?

Could be a memory overload. I have a 13 and sometimes will crash at busy airports with a high airplane count.

Settings low and medium respectively. Aircraft count low. I was flying in DFW which was quite busy.

I cleared cache before the flight as I do everytime and my Wi-fi was stable. I also restarted my phone before flying as I do every time as well.

Help anyone ?

Hello!

What do you need help with in addition to what’s already been said? :slight_smile:

Well because I had already done all of the things above and the app still crashed.

App crashes can happen for a million other reasons too. One app crash doesn’t say much and isn’t really something that’s generally worth investigating or even think about unless it becomes a recurring issue :slight_smile:

Hi @IFlyer

I used to have loads of app crashes back then because of the big events my tablet just couldn’t cope .But after that I just got a new device with better performance, and I’ve never had any problems since, even with the bigger events on higher graphics settings.

The iPhone 13 only has 4 GB of RAM. That’s probably a compatibility issue.

I also use 3GB device. I remember when 26.1 beta was released; I could not even spawn a flight because of contiuous crash. But, the developers keep improved app crash and thanks to devs, I have enjoyed this sim without any crash before 26.4.

What we have to do is just be patient and believe the devs. I am also experiencing app crash but the devs will find answer as always they have done.

I have been experiencing same app crash type of problem. What makes this so frustrating is that i deliberately updated my device to newer apple ipad gen 9 with 3GB ram imagining it would run the game no problems, but most of my gaming experience have been flushed down the drain with app crashing. Settings high or low doesnt matter the app crashes anyways. Couple updates back i would be able to fly longhaul LAX-CDG noproblem, but now if i even think about departing any larger hub airport with more than couple players, my app says byebye. Yeah its nice to have autosave for longer flights and it restores little bit of my hope for the app, but when i have to do multiple restarts before im done with my flight seems bit hilarious.

I have been playing infinite flight for 10+ years and its sad that i have to let go of this beautiful community because these days it requires so much from my device. I do also really hope that developers work something out for us “3GB” people that do not have the newest +1000€ devices on hand because end of the day this is MOBILE GAME.

I have same device - After lowering Online Airplane count to None and 3d Object to low - I faced no crash as far as for climbing and descents goes, as I use AP+ for long haul, try this. But still I haven’t done any flights with A21N, as it always crashes my device. I hope devs optimise 26.4 for us soon.

A reality you need to accept is that your device is weak 3 gb is below minimum for most flight simulators on mobile currently this a reality one most come to terms with.

No objection towards Infinite flight understanding every game have different process and code but on 3gb ram devices RFS works on high settings, Aerofly FS work on high settings, Xplane work on high settings. Just saying iPads are very capable devices, even older ones

Not true as an iPad 9 owner RFS and Aerofly FS will all crash when flying for extended periods of time or out of nowhere

The point is current flight simulators on mobile cannot run without the possibility of a crash on 3 gb devices

I get your point and I accept 3gb ram is not sufficient for high fidelity gaming but then, if not continuous complaining on IF forum about ram what’s your opinion on - What should be we do in order to play IF or any other sim ?
