Hi! I understand your Idle Lumber Empire app is crashing on your iPad 9th gen. Let me assist you in getting this sorted out.

To start, can you share if the app crashes:
- Immediately on launch, or after playing for some time?
- Does it crash consistently in a certain part of the game?
- Have you already tried any steps like restarting your iPad, reinstalling the app, or checking for updates?

In the meantime, here are some common steps that often resolve this crash issue on an iPad:

1. Restart your iPad
Sometimes a fresh start clears temporary glitches. Hold the power button, slide to power off, then turn it back on.

2. Update iPadOS and the App
Make sure your iPad is running the latest iPadOS version available for 9th gen (which you can check and update in Settings > General > Software Update). Also, check the App Store for any update to Idle Lumber Empire and install it.

3. Force Quit the App and Restart It
Swipe up from the bottom of the screen and hold to view running apps, swipe Idle Lumber Empire off the screen to close it completely, then open it again.

4. Clear App Cache if possible
If the app settings offer a cache clear option, use it. If not, deleting and reinstalling the app can achieve this (just be sure your game progress is saved to your account).

5. Disable Background App Refresh
Go to Settings > General > Background App Refresh. Turn this off for Idle Lumber Empire to reduce background activity that might cause instability.

6. Check Storage and Free Up Space
Ensure you have enough free storage on your iPad, as low space can cause apps to behave erratically.

If you have tried these already or if the crashes happen specifically under certain conditions, let me know those details so we can look deeper into the issue. Sometimes, app crashes could also be due to bugs in the app version itself, in which case a fix from the developers might be pending.

Would you like me to guide you through any of these steps? Also, please share any other symptoms or error messages you have noticed.

Are you satisfied with this starting point of the solution?

Closes unexpectedly all the time on iPad 9th.

Thanks for clarifying that the Idle Lumber Empire app crashes frequently on your iPad 9th generation. I want to help you get this fixed. Since this is happening all the time, let's try a more targeted approach beyond the basics.

Here’s a step-by-step tailored plan:

1. Update iPadOS and the Idle Lumber Empire app
Make sure your iPad is running the latest iPadOS version available for 9th gen and the app itself is fully updated. Sometimes compatibility issues arise with older OS versions or app versions. Go to Settings > General > Software Update and check the App Store for updates.

2. Free up Memory and Storage
The iPad 9th gen has 3GB RAM, which some games can strain, causing crashes. Close all other apps running in the background: swipe up and hold, then swipe each app off the screen. Also, check available storage in Settings > General > iPad Storage. If storage is low, delete unused apps or large files.

3. Reinstall the app
Delete the Idle Lumber Empire app and reinstall it to clear corrupted data or cache. Before uninstalling, confirm your game progress is saved through your account or cloud saves to avoid losing progress.

4. Disable Background App Refresh and Notifications
Go to Settings > General > Background App Refresh, and turn it off for this app. Also, disable notifications for it in Settings > Notifications. This can reduce background activity and potential interruptions that might trigger crashes.

5. Reset All Settings
If the problem persists, reset all settings (this does not delete your data but resets preferences and network settings): Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings. This can clear hidden conflicts causing the app to crash.

Some users also report occasional crashes on iPad 9th gen due to the 3GB RAM limitation when playing resource-heavy games, which might be mitigated by ensuring as few apps as possible run in the background and keeping the app updated3 4.

If these steps don't resolve the issue, it may be worth checking if the developers have released any patches addressing iPad 9th gen stability or contacting them directly for support.

Would you like me to guide you through any of these steps? Also, please let me know if the crashes happen at a particular point in the game or after specific actions.

Are you satisfied with this plan for fixing the persistent crashes?
