My app works fine in Thunkable Live both in iOS and Android. When I download the apk and then I install it, the app crashes. I have not been able to test it on iOS because I can not publish it yet on Apple Store.

Does someone has the same problem?

Here’s a guide on how to test your app on your iOS device:

Hard to say without actually seeing your app, but here are some common causes of crashes:

Do you have an active internet connection?  
Are there any errors in your blocks?  
Are there any duplicate/conflicting event handlers in your blocks?  
Does your version number, in your app settings, say `NaN` instead of being a number.

The problem waas solved by itself. I do not know what happened but after 5 times of building the app I was able to start it without any crash.
