Game will not load on iOS

Hey everyone! I have been unable to play Mech Arena on iPad for almost 2 weeks now due to a loading issue that causes the game to crash immediately after opening. It will load the black Plarium screen and then just crash. I have tried everything from uninstalling the game to hard restarting my device, backing up my device to the Cloud, and anything else I can think of. Nothing works. I reached out to Plarium support and they said they sent my issue to the developers and to expect a response within 48 hours. It has been about a week and a half. My game worked on this exact iPad for over a year with no issues, then recently started randomly crashing, but would let me back in right away. Now it is totally broken. Anyone know what to do? Thanks!

Thank you sir for responding! I tried restarting my device and reinstalling the game again and it still crashes immediately.

Same issue here, have deinstalled, reinstalled, still not working. Crashes after the Plarium logo. Is there a second update on the way? Can't load game so can't submit details.

I've not been able to play on iPad for about three weeks now. Same behavior as described, game immediately closes at launch attempt.

I have a screenshot of my user name and player ID. Is there any way to link those without running the game?

I'm afraid to delete the app as I don't want to lose two years of progress.

But if my device is no longer supported I suppose it wouldn't matter.

Deleting the app won't help. Plarium acknowledged that there is a bug in the engine preshader on iPads primarily with A9 or A10 chips, I believe. They are working on fixes for it but uninstalling the app won't help. I read that accounts will still be secure and progress will not be lost while the game is down on iOS.
