Hi - slightly different problem here. My daughter is running Minecraft 11.1.3 on her 5th gen iPad (iOS 12.3). About a week ago the app started freezing on the white load screen with one bar remaining. Now the problem has ... evolved? We are able to get to the menu screen, but after approximately 5 seconds the screen freezes. No clickable buttons, no response, no anything. We have tried Rune S’s workaround (connecting via my iphone’s Hotspot using data) and nothing changed - restarted/updated everything. The only thing we haven’t done is delete the app because a) it doesn’t seem to work, from what I’ve read online? and b) losing all of her worlds would make my kid cry. Help?
Thank you, Pam, that’s very helpful! I’ll give it a try.
