Q: NYTimes Crossword app won't open.

Hi, snevets2!

Thank you for reaching out in the Apple Support Communities. From your post, I understand that you recently updated the third party app, NYTimes Crossword, and it unexpectedly quits whenever you try to open it. I use a lot of different apps on my own iOS devices, so I know it's important for it to open as expected. I'm happy to help.

I recommend utilizing the steps in the following article, which will help troubleshoot apps you have installed onto your iPad when they do not behave as expected.

If an app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open

Have a wonderful day!
