Follow the app-recovery sequence before changing the streaming credentials: close and reopen the app, restart iPhone, then check app and iOS updates. A crash before login occurs before the player has accepted an account.
Why this happens
The app process or software compatibility can fail independently of subscription validity. Re-entering a password cannot repair an app that immediately closes.
Work through the steps
- Close the affected app and open it again.
- Restart iPhone normally.
- Check the app's update and iOS update availability.
- If removal is needed, recover the account and licence details first.
What to avoid
Deleting an app may remove local setup. Do not publish an account screenshot when reporting the crash.
Know what changed
The player should remain open at its first usable screen. Record whether the crash later shifts to account entry, category loading or a specific programme.
