There's another facebook SDK issue that lead's to our iOS app to crash on launch again along with major apps like Spotify & Pinterest@fb_engineering — Peter Juras (@peterjuras)July 10, 2020
Facebook already issued a statement regarding the issue and said to be fixing it already.
"We are aware and investigating an increase in errors on the iOS SDK, which is causing some apps to crash," said the firm.
Well-known app developer Guilherme Rambo shared on The Verge that Facebook has been doing this trial since day one. And that's where the problem lies.
"Facebook really pushes developers into installing their SDK, likely because they want the very rich data they can collect on those app's users," said Rambo in May. "The SDK is offered as a convenience for both developers and marketing teams since it can also be used to track the conversions of ads run through Facebook."
How to fix the iPhone crash?
If you're still struggling to know how to fix the iPhone crash on your device, here's an advice fromThe Vergeand9to5mac.
The main key to fix the bug is through closing and blocking all the apps from accessing the Facebook domain. Since iPhone users usually connect their apps to Facebook, the root of the problem starts there. Here are the steps you need to make.
- First, install Lockdown Apps
- Launch the app
- Decline any trials being offered
- Click the Firewall button
- Say 'yes' to install the VPN profile
And that's it! Lockdown apps, as per The Verge, is a firewall and privacy protection app for iOS users. It uses VPN to block any trackers that can be used from Facebook.
Remember that these steps are just a temporary solution to the problem. Since Facebook nor Apple are not yet giving any opinions or tips about the problem, this is the best fixer-upper we've got.
