Why does the QuickBooks Online app keep crashing on iPhone, and how do I fix it?

Iphone QB app which is updated to the latest version on an iPhone with the latest version keeps crashing.

Phone support couldn't figure it out so they gave me two phone numbers to call that are no longer in service..

In a quest to figure this out on my own l have spent many hours.. and I did the tollowing;

Offload App to clear the app's cache and data without deleting the app itself

 

Reinstall the app from the App Store.

 

Soft reset iPhone

 

Reboot iPhone.

 

Still doesn’t work.  Total Quickbooks nightmare.  Why do you continue updating when you don’t even fix the broken code that you currently run?

 

Any suggestions?

 

Btw this forum barely works too.. please intuit, get your act together.

If the QuickBooks Online mobile app keeps crashing on your iPhone, a short list of device-level steps clears it up in most cases. If the app crashes so fast you can't even get into it to reach support, you can still get help through a browser instead. Work through these in order. Each one resolves a different common cause, so it's worth trying all of them even if you've already done a few:

  1. Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data to rule out a connection issue.
  2. Close the app completely, then reopen it.
  3. Power off your iPhone and restart it.
  4. Uninstall the QuickBooks app, then reinstall it from the App Store.
  5. Check the App Store for a QuickBooks update and install it if one's available.
  6. Update your iPhone's iOS to the latest version.

I’m glad to hear that someone else knows my pain. I have been dealing with a crashing app as well. I have followed the same steps to no avail. I called Quickbooks support and they said they don’t support the phone app and had no access to a customer support number. They said I would have to open my app to get the number that I need to call. Doesn’t do me any good if I can’t open the app. Not impressed. Maybe this will get someone’s attention.
