Recently updated to new iOS and Microsoft family app keeps crashing. Have restart phone multiple times and uninstall and reinstalled app several times. Before the iOS update, app was giving errors on the notification page. Had to keep hitting refresh button and it would finally connect to Microsoft.

Hey everyone, good news! An update is now available which resolves this issue, with the new app version implementing the fix being 1.24.3. Please update to the newest version and see if the issue is resolved.

Based on some user experience, if you do not get the update offered you may have to uninstall the app first, then reinstall to get the new version.

    They may have fixed it. Mine hasn't crashed since yesterday (and I did not do the Polish solution).

    THIS WORKED FOR ME!

    Go to Settings. Scroll all the way down to the “Family Safety” app settings. You should see “Background App Refresh” in the list. Toggle it off, then back on again. Now mine stays open without crashing!

    (This solution was originally posted in Polish.)

    Update: …and, back to crashing again. Ugh. Come on, Microsoft. Please fix this!!!
