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.

    Hello Jeremy,

    I’m an Independent Advisor and Microsoft user like you. Thanks for posting the query here at this forum.

    Could you please let me know if you're using the latest version of IOS (16)?

    There are no existing bug reported with IOS version of family safety app and I have verified with IOS version of 16.1.2.

    As you have tried to reinstall multiple time, could you please try to refresh the device using factory reset option? Apologies for inconvenience.

    I don't see any particular workarounds for IOS devices in below link. https://support.microsoft.com/account-billing/e1fb76e6-a320-4496-beeb-bb363378c6d8

    If enabling notification details, please refer below link. https://support.microsoft.com/account-billing/e8274003-c159-4d64-9891-b67721c8c011

    Hope this information would be useful to you. Please feel free to get back if you need any additional info.
