Device Information
iPhone 8, iOS 16.7.10
Description
IF beta crashes before I even reach the loading screen, I haven’t been able to open the app on my phone
Besides, on 9th generation iPad (18.6.2) the beta is especially prone to crashing in the takeoff stage. Ik it’s a beta but still very annoying
The iPhone 8 has 2GB of Ram and the iPad 9th generation has 3GB of Ram. It is a known issue for devices that have under 4GB of Ram to keep crashing. I’d advise to just stay on the regular App Store version of the app until further notice if a fix becomes available.

Not the iPhone 8 
But yeah the iPhone 8 is now eight generations old and doesn’t have the specs to support the newer versions of IF. It may be wise to invest in something newer lol

But I’m sure the devs took people with older phones into account? At least I hope so.

Unfortunately, most apps stop working on older phones as times passes. It’s just the way things work. You couldn’t run IF on an iPhone 3G in 2020.

yeah I give up, i’ll just fly on 25.1 until the next version of beta comes out (also when will it come out for iOS?)
Build release times are not shared. When the build is released, you can find it in your TestFlight app or on the Open Beta Changelogs topic.
2GB ram Is actually below the minimum requirements for Infinite Flight on version 25.1, which is 3GB of RAM, although 4GB or more is recommended.
You’re also on an old iOS version - which won’t be helping things either. Yes iOS 16.x is supported, but it won’t be relatively well optimised.
@Poxy is correct - it may be wise to think about investing in a newer device if you want to continue having a decent experience with Infinite Flight.

Performance is actually better now, but I had to go five tries before I could take off from New York yesterday. Just did three tries to take off from ICN but none have been successful, didn’t even get to cruise. But still very frustrating. This is the latest build.
I have the exact same issue, my game keeps on crashing and I cannot run beta at all, although I set settings to medium and it helped improve my fps to 30-40 which is quite a jump. New update also helped a lot is what I would say but crashing problem still occurs

i am using the latest ipad pro with M5 but still suffering the same issue when landing on final at several specific airports including WSSS LTFM etc.
I believe that degraded performance on the iPad Pros (especially the 12.9’ inch models) is a known issue.
