Any tips on how to stabilize app?

I have an iPhone 6plus. The pogo app crashes on me about every 10 minutes of play time. Can't pinpoint any consistent thing that I'm doing so I think it's just very unstable on my phone.

I've been just living with it but it gets really frustrating when battling gyms and it crashes and then either it still thinks I'm playing so I can't get back in the gym for a few minutes or worse I get a soft ban for about 5 to 10 minutes. It can take me about 30 minutes to take down a level 3 gym sometimes. But the worse is after leveling up a high gym and I click to add my mon and it crashes and takes me awhile to get back in and by then the spot gets sniped.

I also get those blue and black screen lockups when trying to start it back up

i have tried not having any other app open but no difference. Anything I can do with phone settings?

When you play, do you kill all other apps? I'm playing on an iPhone 6 and it runs just fine. Occasional crashes but definitely not as common as every 10 mins.

Also, I went through my phone and turned off a bunch of notifications. Just eating up a lot of battery.

Don't have other apps running. What sort of notifications and how would I go about turning those off?

Thanks

Settings App -> Notification -> all your apps will be listed. Go through and turn useless ones to off

I have the same phone and same problems as you.
Gets worse if I'm at busy area.

Tried everything I could but nothing helps the crashing issue.

Hoping the next update will improve but gets worse with each update.

Don't have a solution for you but wanted you to know you're not alone.

try reinstall ur apps... if still the same... try some boost apps... for my sony i use Dorado clean,even in game, i can kill some apps without close pogo(yup abit faster)... but sorry idk about iphone if got any cleaner apps...

I have the 6 Plus as well. Been living with the crashes and loading issues for a while. Tried everything including reinstalling app. Sucks. Makes gameplay difficult with it closing all the time.

Maybe not any option for you, but I upgraded to an iPhone 7 and my crashes stopped.

Yah, definitely not an option. Yah, seems to be issue with the 6 Plus. Friends with later models don't have the crashing issue.

I have the same problems with an iPhone 6. The crashes started after the most recent iOS update, and knowing Apple it's probably their way of nudging us to get newer phones. Usually 2-3 years after iPhone releases iOS is no longer designed with older phones in mind. Since mine always crashes at more processing intensive moments, my theory is there's some code in the new iOS to the effect of "if an app is utilizing over 75% of the CPU, immediately force quit." That scenario would probably only come up on newer phones when an app is actually freezing or messing up, but for our older phones that % threshold would be reached by normal but intense processing (e.g. loading the animation for a charge move). Just a theory. But sadly I have no solution and have just been dealing with the crashes :-/

Same here, didn't realize this was a common problem... wonder if my wife will accept that as a reason to upgrade, LOL!
