I have an iPad air2 with 32gb....not unreasonable. However, I crash my game every 5 minutes which is incredibly annoying. Have very little else on it. Is there something I can do to make this problem go away? Thanks for any input.

I have an Android, 16GB. Dragon Story - Mine started crashing now and then this last week, when there were 2 wheels to spin. Since the Dragon Tales event was added yesterday, I'm lucky if I can stay on DS to do anything. It crashes over and over as soon as it loads. If I'm lucky enough to do one task (send a friend gold), it crashes immediately after. Storm 8, Please HELP!
Make sure you close all applications running in the background on your Ipad to see if that helps.
Check your ipad and make sure you have the most current software update.
Make sure you have the most current version of the game installed.
I have an older ipad mini and the game wont even load, it starts and crashes...I might get it to load once a day and this has been going on for well over a month. I have the most current game version and nothing else running in the background.
i have ipad air2 too with 128gb and i crash every 5 min too ;)Quote:

i often delete the apps and re-install : crashes are less then
(i don?t try to play DS on my old ipad mini : crash immediately)
Appreciate the input. I run nothing in the background, only web browser. Have latest version. Anybody else have suggestions?
It is not your device my iPhone 7 started crashing a month after I got it, go figure!Quote:

But my Skeleking is still invisible despite repeated reinstalls, restarts and using a robust wifi. ��
I have an ipad Air 2..with 64 gb...still running on ios 9.?.. Haven't updated for some time and I have absolutely no game crashing..
Heard there were game issues starting with ios 10.. Know a nbr that bought a brand new iphone with over 200 gb but it had ios 10.? On it and they had crashing issues too..
I'm also on iOS 9 and do not have any of the crashing issues (thankfully, it sounds frustrating and horrible). I almost always have multiple apps open in the background and am nearly out of available space on my iPad (only about 3GB left), and neither are causing issues with the game.
I have iPhone6 it's not your device. Dragon Story crashes & must reload often. It crashes the same with my iPhone 5 & iPad. This is a bug that needs to be fixed. I know many players that have the same issue.Quote:

Hi here is another "ongoing crashing" thread in Bugs & issues and I've seen many others. Perhaps we can get Storm8 to gather up details in hope of isolating & fixing this bug issue. ThanksQuote:

I agree crashing occurred much more often with the addition of Bingo. (Although DS crashed before that it was only a few times per day & it's both Android & iOS bug)Quote:

Seems we should be able to actually play this game with updated devices and software w/o problems but we've been asking for fixes for a very long time.

Based on my experience (Android only), RAM is a much more important factor than storage. As you level up and get more habitats and dragons, crashes will increase. At somewhere over level 100 DS was unplayable due to crashes on multiple 1 GB RAM Android devices. 1.5GB RAM device was still playable in the 180s, but some crashes had returned. 2GB RAM device has not yet had significant crashing [knocks wood]. Bingo did seem to add to the stress on the devices.
I have same experience on Android going from 1G to 2G ram. I run ok but as game data grows w all the bingo visits i need to delete game data more often cause game slows down or does odd stuff when DS internal memory reaches its limits...i get trickster popup, game is online, or inappropriate words or just booted. Then S8 adds so much more side games to mess w memory. They just don't get it.Quote:

I have an iPad mini and the game won't even open unless I delete the app off my iPad and then reinstall it. EVERY.SINGLE.TIME.
It's frustrating to have spent so much money and time building up my land, just to have it be almost inaccessible at the end.
Same...I am lucky if I can get it to load once a day trying 100 times.Quote:

I have pressed the Enter key but still the Dragon Story Spin to Win does not tell me I won anything. I am missing out on many prizes I could be winning. I wished I had touch screen now. I don't have this problem on my Android phone because I can spin with my fingers and win prizes. Please advise. HELP!! Thanks
I am sorry, but Windows 10 on a computer is not an approved device to play the games on, so you may experience issues with the games if you play on an unsupported device.Quote:

Updated my app today - still had 4 crashes within a few minutes.
Since the update I have been able to play on my iPad mini with very few crashes. This is a huge improvement from having to uninstall and reinstall the game every time I played. Thank you!
Since we had the latest update I cannot access to the Invite tab anymore. When I push on it the game crashes. Any advice?
This is a known issue. See Bug thread here.Quote:

I will not be able to finish this event and if it isn't fixed soon, I will just delete the game.
My game crashes generally when I visit either a neighbour or a community member. It is very annoying and sometimes it crashes when the spin is on and I don’t get my prize. It is so annoying it takes the fun out of playing and visiting neighbors or others a chore!
