IPhone Apps: AP Mobile News Crashes

Question

The AP Mobile News app (the icon is a hat) worked fine until I updated it to v1.1. Now every time I try to use it, it starts up, then reverts to my main screen. Sometimes, it even causes my iPhone to crash and restart.

Anyone else have this problem? Or, even better, does anyone know of a solution?

Answer 1

Well, Rock. I think it's safe to say we all love the new stability that 2.0.1 offered in iPhone's latest update.

I'm currently running an iPhone 3G. The problems I had with apps is that they kept crashing, be AP, NY Times or Super Monkey Ball. At first I thought the update was unstable, but it turns out that it was residual memory left from the first OS software.

Just go into iTunes with you iPhone hooked up and Restore. This should give you a clean slate, it will then sync all your music and aps you have in iTunes, and you should be fine.

Note: a clean restore on a full iPhone 8GB should take roughly an hour.
