How do I fix apps quitting after iOS updates?

Several apps quit working after second to last iOS. I assumed it was another Apple update screw-up so I installed today's update and three more apps stopped working. I've done the usual, restart, delete and re-install the apps.

Welcome and thank you for reaching out. 🤗


According to Apple:


Contact the developer of an iOS app:

  1. Open the App Store on your iPhone or iPad.
  2. Search for the app, then tap it. If you can't find the app you're looking for, tap the My Account button or your photo at the top of the screen, tap Apps, then tap My Apps.
  3. Tap "Not on this [device]," then select the app.
  4. Scroll to the Ratings & Reviews section of the app's product page, then tap App Support. If you don't see App Support, make sure that you're signed in to the correct Apple Account.


If you need more help, contact Apple Support directly.


Good Luck! 👋🏼😉

Which Apps?


If the developers of the apps have not updated their app(s) to work with the most up to date iOS version, the apps will not run.


The "screw up" is on the apps for being out of date.
