I am having the same problem! Ever since I updated Minecraft PE to 1.6.0 it is unusable. It is the same issue of crashing when you load the world and reverting back to the home screen.

I have been playing MInecraft since the original version and have never seen such a BAD bug!

I have cancelled my Relms account since it is impossible to play on the IOS.

I have contacted customer service and have received no reply hence why I went here.  Still no solution.   This is extremely frustrating.

I am unhappy that this bug issue has been logged as resolved.  It has not been resolved.  My students still can not access their world.  They have followed all the steps you asked and none work.  They are using personal iPads and do not have realms or accounts.  They use the iPad Pocket edition and have had no issues until this update. Please look in to this further.  Thanks.

I agree this issue has NOT Been resolved.

Not only does it now affect my iPad six generation but it is also affecting my sons iPad as well. I’ve gone through all of the stops and none of them help. I have even deleted the app and reinstalled it and that does not help.

I now have that is basically useless. Please Mojang resolve this issue !

I'm happy to reopen the ticket but unfortunately without steps to reproduce the issue there could be any number of reasons as to why the worlds are crashing - The good news however is that the majority of crashes are logged automatically, and we have a number of stability fixes lined up for a future update that will address some of these (no specific date can be provided).

If you are able to include a copy of the world save that is having the issue you've described we might be able to try and reproduce the problem.

I have the same issue on an IPad, since upgrading the game is very slow and stutters. This appears to get worse before the game freezes and requires re-starting or I'm returned to the home screen.

Hello Mega_spud,

 I will be glad to provide you with any information that would be helpful to resolve this bug. What exactly what I need to do to send you a copy of the game?

If you want to upload a copy of the world that is causing issues you will need to locate the save folder, which will probably mean using a file explorer of some kind. (Please only do so if you know how, at your own risk)
The world save files are located in the minecraftWorlds folder (Device storage > games > com.mojang > minecraftWorlds)

If you want to upload a copy either here or to a file sharing site I'll happily take a look and see if there's anything specific that could be causing the issue.

As mentioned though, we are working on an update that has several bug and crash fixes, which may resolve the issue you have been experiencing (no specific date can be provided, sorry!).

I can confirm that on an iPad Air 2, I'm experiencing the same issue. Here's an example save which crashes.

Making a new world seems to not produce the same crashes.

Thanks!

My world is crashing within a couple of minutes over and over. I’m happy to upload it but it’s 2.3 gigs. If you confirm you’d want such a large one I can upload it. Or, tell me if crash logs can be retrieved from the iPad. I’m conversant with imazing to retrieve anything that is retrievable. Cheers. 

I have the same issue.  I play on an iPhone 8 Plus.  After the 1.6 update I would get booted after 20 minutes or so, as time has gone on my playable time has gotten smaller and smaller to the point that now it crashes as soon as it opens.  I have noticed today while trying to open my world that the file size seems to get larger even though I am unable to do anything, such as collect or place items.(as I am booted immediately)

I've  been experimenting with this and firstly it seems to be less crashy with Pocket rather than Classic as the interface. Secondly, more reliably, the number of nearby mobs has a direct relationship with the crashing. More mobs (eg busy village, animal pen), the quicker the crash. I killed off most mobs in one area and it didn't crash for a good couple of hours (but as villagers bred and numbers went back up, crashing came back).

Wow, ok. Given what Jason has commented about mobs and play time I tried setting my game to peaceful and I was able to actually play. This is great cause I was getting booted immediately, it’s bad cause now there are no hostile mobs.  What’s strange to me is my world consists of a large island approximately 500 x 600 blocks with ocean in all directions for hundreds of blocks.  I have lit the caves on the island really well so just surface mobs are spawning.  Are the surface mobs alone enough to crash the game?  For what it’s worth I do occasionally stumble across a particular pocket of water packed full of drowned.  Maybe 10-20 of them at a time. Gonna convert that area to a mob trap of some kind so I haven’t bothered lighting it up.

I hope they're still working on this because it's still happening. The iPad mini version still crashes upon going into the game & my daughter has worked super hard on her worlds. If I have to reset the game or uninstall it she's going to be so upset. It's all because of this stupid 1.6 update 2 weeks ago. Before that everything was fine.

The recent 1.6.1 hotfix included several crash and performance fixes - please could you let me know if the update has resolved the crashing issue for you now?

I’ve played for about an hour after the 1.6.1 update with no problems. I’ll update this ticket as necessary with my experience going forward.

I updated to 1.6.1. and it didn't fix the problem, the world is still crashing.

Mine updated as well & it didn't fix the problem. The game is still crashing & kicking me back out to the home screen.

I've also seen very rapid crashes with 1.6.1, when near a mob spawner. I'll do some proper testing this evening.

Crashing began today, started with huge lag spikes and chunks refusing to load as I ventured away from my base.  I was able to close and save to get the chunks to load in but when I made it to my village that I use for villager breeding the game crashed, there is maybe 30-40 villagers there and it’s about 1000 blocks away from anything.  I have done zero lighting of any area around/under the village as I normally just sleep when it gets to night while I am there.(if that matters.) Edit: I am running 1.6.1

iPad Air AND an iPad Air 2 is crashing as well when I load a certain world. Crashes within a minute on creative mode. Haven't tried other modes. Tried saving the game files to my MacBook (which I've done successfully before), uninstalled game, reinstalled game, reinstalled game files and no luck. Restarted iPad of course, too. That was the first world that I opened up with the new update. Other worlds seem to work though. The ones that doesn't work is 1.8MB, others are more!

 I have my saved game files but how do I attach them to this thread? I click the attachment button and something named "broken save.zip" shows up and is unclickable. [Nevermind, I see the drag 'N' drop at the top. I just dumped the whole folder for the broken world in there!]

World still keeps crashing immediately on start up. World size is 103.6 mb. This is on an iPAD Pro model MP6G2LL/A with 256GB - 205GB available. I can open up a earlier copy of this same world that is 99.6 MB and a creative world of the same seed of 117 MB. Seed is 1443241656. Have removed all extra resource packs and lowered all video settings to minimum values. Have applied 1.6.1 but world still crashes immediately upon opening. I have just updated iPad to IOS 12. World still crashes. Please note that this is happening while next to a mob drop from a spawner the same as in one of the above examples.

In case it's relevant, it's not purely size (mine is 2.3 gb) and here it's more tolerant of larger numbers of mobs (eg villagers) but it still crashes frequently, and I'm pretty sure it's related to a timed action such as sugarcane trying to grow or mob spawners ticking over. But it's intermittent as my mob spawners can run for two or three minutes with me right next to them before something causes a crash.

Just a little more information...  on 1.6.0 it seemed I was able to put my world on peaceful and I stopped getting crashes, so naturally on 1.6.1 when the crashes started I switched it to peaceful and it only worked for about 10-20 minutes or so. That time frame gets smaller and smaller the more I try to play the game until the game crashes immediately upon loading(where I am now).  I play survival so The only entities I have around my are naturally spawning.  Before it became completely unplayable I was working with 30-40 villagers.  My world is only 110mb.

I have been having the same issue. I have an iPad Air 2.

I switched the game to peaceful and game started fine. I have switched back to normal mode and so far have not been kicked. It looks like entity numbers may be an issue.

I am having the same problem. World size is 29.4MB and seed 1816459899. No extra texture packs or behaviors used. Had no issues until yesterday.  Yesterday i could walk about 20 blocks and then it would crash. Now I cannot even get it to load up and it crashes. 

EDIT 18/8/18 - Sometimes it loads, I can walk 2 blocks and then it crashes, sometimes it loads then crashes straight away.

I have been having a similar problem of crashing out of the Minecraft app on my iPad Air 2 (non-server world). This happens when I am loading one of my worlds and also in another world when I move to an area of many mobs. This happens on both MCPE 1.6.0 and 1.6.1.

I just tried something on the same iPad Air 2 to see if I could reproduce in a new world (MCPE 1.6.1). I created a new world in creative/peaceful mode. Built a 7 by 7 by 4 high glass tank. Filled it with water.then started adding Tropical Fish (via eggs). When adding the 35th fish the Minecraft PE app crashed. I was able to re-enter the world, but on adding an additional 6 Tropical Fish the app crashed again. Here is a summary of attempts:

• Started new creative/peaceful world, built glass water tank, adding Tropical Fish to tank and on 35th fish app crashed

• reopened world, adding more Tropical Fish to tank and on 6th fish app crashed

• reopened world, adding more Tropical Fish to tank and on 6th fish app crashed

• reopened world, adding more Tropical Fish to tank and on 10th fish app crashed

• reopened world, adding more Tropical Fish to tank and on 3rd fish app crashed

• reopened world, adding more Tropical Fish to tank and on 12th fish app crashed

• reopened world, world starts to appear, then app crashed

• reopened world, world appears for less than a second, then app crashed

The current size of the world is 0.34 MBs.
