Minecraft 26.51 crashes immediately after the Mojang logo on iPad 7th

Minecraft Bedrock Edition 26.51 crashes immediately after the red Mojang logo appears. The game never reaches the main menu.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open Minecraft.

2. Wait for the red Mojang logo to appear.

3. The screen changes briefly, and then Minecraft closes automatically.

4. The main menu never appears.

Expected result:
Minecraft should finish loading and display the main menu.

Actual result:
Minecraft closes automatically before reaching the main menu.

Troubleshooting already attempted:

• Restarted the iPad.

• Confirmed the iPad has available storage.

• Confirmed iPadOS is up to date.

• Confirmed Minecraft is updated to version 26.51.

• Reinstalled Minecraft using the iPad’s “Offload App” option and then reinstalled it.

• The crash still occurs immediately after the Mojang logo.

• The issue occurs without using mods or third-party tools.

A crash folder is also created in Minecraft’s files, containing .dmp crash dump files and session files from the crashes.

This issue occurs consistently every time Minecraft is opened.
