For the last week or so my copy of the MGG podcast app has crashed immediately upon opening. I was attempting to listen to episode 740, and it took several - 5 or 6? - tries before it did not crash. Today, I tried to open the app again, but it again would only crash within a few seconds of launch.
I deleted the app and re-downloaded it, which I thought did the trick, but then I had to go through and mark the full list of episodes as “listened to.” About a dozen or so episodes down the list, another crash.
Am I the only one experiencing this? Is there a fix?
I just tried the MacGeekGab app, and I had the same experience. It came up, showed a list of recent podcasts, and then I was back at the iOS Springboard interface.
If I quickly tap on Downloaded, it stays up.
After that, it has stayed up even when I change back to Unplayed or All.
I've done multiple close/open cycles and it is now staying up.
I've done a power cycle, and again the app has stayed up.
I'm guessing there was something in one of the Unplayed descriptions that was causing a fault, that switching to my Downloaded tab (where I did not have anything downloaded), allowed the code to get past the issue, and set things up in a cache or some other persistent state.
Sorry about this, all. I’ve let Cory know, and we're digging into it.
Shout out to Cory and the TMO team for a great app though! I have not had any issues personally.
Why not tyring force quitting it or force restart your device? If it still meets with this issue, then you are suggested to use a third-party tool such as TunesKit iOS System Repair to fix it.
