Hi there! I see you’re having trouble with the AltitudePlus+ app crashing right when you try to open it on your iPhone running iOS 16.7.12. Let’s work together to get this sorted out.

To start, may I ask:
- Has this crash issue started recently after an update or change?
- Have you already tried restarting your iPhone or reinstalling the app?
- Do you see any error messages when the app crashes, or does it just close immediately?

While you answer, here are some straightforward steps you can try based on common causes of app crashes on iPhones:

1. Force close the app and restart the phone
- Double tap the Home button or swipe up from the bottom (depending on your iPhone model) to open the app switcher.
- Swipe up on the AltitudePlus+ app to close it fully.
- Then, press and hold the side button and either volume button until the power off slider appears. Turn off your iPhone, wait 10 seconds, then turn it back on.

2. Check for App Updates
- Open the App Store, tap your profile icon, and see if AltitudePlus+ has an update waiting. Sometimes updates fix bugs causing crashes.

3. Reinstall the App
- Touch and hold the AltitudePlus+ app icon until it jiggles, then tap the “Delete App” option. After deleting, go back to the App Store and reinstall it fresh.

4. Clear Cache (if applicable inside app settings)
- Sometimes apps have an option in their settings to clear cache/data which can resolve start-up issues. Though not all apps have this option.

If you’ve done these, or the problem persists, the next step would be checking device storage (sometimes low space causes crashes) and looking at permissions for the app via Settings > AltitudePlus+.

If none of these work, it could be a more specific bug or server-side issue with AltitudePlus+. In that case, contacting their support at [email protected] would be helpful, and I’d be happy to assist you drafting the message.

Let me know which steps you’ve tried and how it went, and we’ll go from there!

Thanks for the clarification! So the Altitude+ app on your Roku TV is crashing and won’t open. Let’s go through some steps to get it working again.

Here’s a practical approach to try on your Roku TV:

1. Restart Your Roku Device
- On your Roku remote, press the Home button.
- Then go to Settings > System > Power > System restart > Restart.
- This will fully reboot the Roku and can often clear temporary glitches causing app crashes.

2. Remove and Reinstall the Altitude+ Channel
- From the Roku home screen, highlight the Altitude+ app tile.
- Press the * (Star) button on your Roku remote for options.
- Select Remove channel, and confirm.
- After removing, restart your Roku device as above.
- Then go to the Roku Channel Store and reinstall Altitude+ fresh.

3. Check Your Network Connection
- Make sure your Roku is connected to a stable Wi-Fi network. You can also try rebooting your Wi-Fi router.
- Optionally, if possible, try connecting the Roku to a different network (like a mobile hotspot) to check if the issue is network related.

4. Update Your Roku Software
- Go to Settings > System > System update > Check now
- Make sure your Roku has the latest system update installed, as outdated firmware can cause app instability.

If you’ve tried all these and the app still crashes, there may be a temporary issue with the Altitude+ app itself on Roku, as others have reported similar problems recently. Checking official Altitude+ social media or support channels for known outages or fixes could be helpful.

Would you like me to guide you through these steps one by one? Also, let me know if you have already tried any of these so I can tailor the help further!

Thanks for letting me know that you've restarted your Roku and confirmed you have the latest Altitude+ app version but can’t find the option to uninstall or rent. That helps narrow things down.

On Roku, the process for removing apps (channels) can sometimes be a bit hidden or blocked, especially if the app is linked to a subscription or has active billing tied to it. Here's what typically applies:

1. Cancelling Subscriptions First
If you have an active subscription (like a rental or recurring payment) associated with Altitude+, Roku often requires you to cancel it before you can remove the app. You can manage this by:
- Going to your Roku account on a computer or mobile browser at my.roku.com/account
- Under Manage Subscriptions, locate Altitude+ and cancel any active subscriptions or rentals there.
- Once canceled, you should then be able to remove the app on your Roku device.

2. Removing the Channel/App on Roku
- On the Roku home screen, highlight the Altitude+ app tile with your remote.
- Press the * (star) button to open the options menu.
- You should then see the Remove channel option. If this is missing or greyed out, it's likely due to an active subscription tying it to your account.

3. If You Can't Remove the App
- Sometimes a glitch or bug can prevent removal or proper reinstallation. A workaround some users have found effective is:
- Use the Roku mobile app (if installed), long press the Altitude+ channel tile there, and try removing it.
- Perform a full factory reset on Roku as a last resort (Settings > System > Advanced system settings > Factory reset). This will erase all apps and settings, so use cautiously.

Regarding the "unable to rent" issue, some users report the Altitude+ Roku app has bugs with certain prompts or renting features not functioning correctly, which might require a fix from Altitude+ developers.

For now, I recommend these steps:
- Check and cancel any active Altitude+ subscriptions via the Roku website first.
- Then try removing the app from Roku home using the * button options.
- If removal is successful, reinstall the app from the Roku Channel Store.
- And finally, if renting still doesn't work or the app continues crashing, contacting AltitudePlus+ support at [email protected] will be the best route. They may have specific advice or fixes for Roku.

Does this help you move forward? Let me know if you want me to walk you through checking your Roku subscriptions online or have any other questions!
