Since I’ve updated to iOS 13.1.2 for my iPad Pro, some of the apps in the dock won’t work. I can reopen them on the main screens, but not when using the dock. I’ve never had trouble accessing these same apps from the dock before. Is anyone else having this issue, and do you have any idea how to fix it?
iPad Pro 12.9-inch, 2nd Gen, Wi-Fi, Cell
Same here. Sometimes some of the recently used apps in the dock just will not activate from there. It knows you are touching it as it "darkens" when you touch it. You can even get the pop up options from it there, but it just will not open from the dock.
This has definitely got to be an ios13 bug, for sure!
Restarting my iPad also resolved the dock issue. Thank you.
Everyone just update to the latest iOS 12.2.2 update.
It fixes a bunch of issues.
I meant 13.2.2. update.
Decided to check and see if this problem was already out there. It is.
Cannot launch from temporary launch area, have to go to original app.
You can move all the apps on the right side of the divider (recently used) to the left side by using the icon “rearrange apps.” Then the divider goes away and everything in the dock works.
I had the same problem. Seems to be a memory issue. Power the device off, wait a few minutes, power on, all works fine again.
This works.
Same here with iPad Mini gen 4
Thanks this fixed it :)
This process worked for me.
Like most solutions offered here that I tried, it works for a while, but the problem eventually recurs. Still something wrong with relaunching recently used non-Apple apps in the dock.
Im still having this problem intermittently. It works if I reboot, then stops working after a day or two. It's really annoying and Apple needs to fix it.
Thank you very much, that solved the problem here.
Me too. Very frustrating.
