App Is Not Working/Opening on iPhone and iPad after iOS 10 Update

“Can someone help me? I’ve just updated my iPhone to the latest iOS 10 and now my shopping app is not working on iPhone 6s Plus. I don’t know why and have no any idea. Any help would be greatly appreciated!”

Apple’s iOS 10 update brings new features but they’ve also brought some problems to owners. There is nothing worse than trying to open or launch an app on your iPhone, iPad only to find it flashed open for a second and then promptly closes, or it simply does not even respond. In most cases, the only apps that are impacted are non-native apps. These are apps which were not present on the device when it was purchased.

Why Won’t Your iPhone Apps Open?

It may be a software problem. When an app crashes, it usually doesn’t take the whole iPhone with it. Instead, you end up back on the Home screen, and the app terminates in the background. Apps don’t exist in a vacuum, either. iPhone apps usually won’t open because of a problem with the iPhone operating system (iOS), not a problem with the app itself.

One of two things is happening when you tap to open an iPhone app: Nothing happens at all, or the app beings to load the opening screen, but immediately closes. By following this article, you will be shown how to fix your iPhone iPad apps won’t open after iOS 10 update.

• Method 1. Delete The App And Reinstall It
• Method 2. Restart Your Device
• Method 3. Check For Updates In The App Store
• Method 4. Reset All Settings and Recover Data after Factory Reset

Method 1. Delete The App And Reinstall It

If only one of your apps won’t open, there’s a good chance that deleting the app from your iPhone and reinstalling it from the App Store will fix the problem:

Press the app icon for 3 seconds until it starts wiggle and an “X” signature appear against all non-native apps. Tap on “X” to delete the affected app with its all data from your device. Then go to App Store and search for the app and download it once again.

Method 2. Restart Your Device

It is a quite easy method, but uncertain if it works well on fixing unopened app on iDevice. Hold the Sleep/Wake button on the top of your device until “slide to power off” option appears. Turn off your device. Wait a few minutes and press Sleep/Wake button again to start your device.

Method 3. Check For Updates In The App Store

One of the main reasons app developers release updates is to fix software bugs that can cause problems like this one. Instead of combing through the list to find the problem app, I believe your best bet is simply to update all your apps at once.

Method 4. Reset All Settings and Recover Data after Factory Reset

Performing a factory reset on an iPhone: Go to “settings” >> “General” >> “Reset” >> “Erase All Content and Settings”. But it will remove all its data, settinga, accounts, passwords on our iPhone /iPad device. Hence, make sure that you make a backup of your iPhone’s data to your local computer.
