Crashing on my iPhone 14

Support
1

Device: iPhone 14
Operating system: 26.5.2

IF has crashed twice in two days whilst flying into busy Airports. I do everything : graphics low, aircraft count low to none, clear cache, restarting device before flying, etc. I have been having issues with my phone’s battery ( it has not been charging properly) so I am wondering if this is an issue. Also my storage is pretty full as you can see below which is why I am trying to empty stuff and I was wondering if this would help.

Thanks for your help.

I’m not gonna lie I’ve never understood why people would think If would run half decent on a phone vs a tablet

If your battery is in a poor condition then yes, it can definitely have an impact on performance.
But, unspecified charging issues could also be something else.

The issue you’re having sounds like a low memory crash.
Have you tried lower 3D object density as well?

These are my graphics settings. So what should I do next in order to prevent this from happening ?

When I fly with my iPhone 14 into busy airports, it usually crashes but with my older iPhone 13 with the same settings it never does ( then again I think my iPhone 13 has a better battery ).

What I mean by charging issues is that I need to put my charger into the phone in a specific position in order for it to charge.

If I move it a little bit, it stops charging.

Maybe there’s a little dirt in the charging socket.

Also, I may have forgotten to clear background apps. Can that have an effect ?

Tablets and phones are made to process background apps. That would not have something to do with it. Maybe lower all graphic settings to low and your FPS to 30 and set the people that are online to low as well.
