IPad message app won’t open

Hi I have an iPad which has the latest software installed. I have tried all things suggested in various google searches to fix why the message app on my iPad won’t open and crashes to home screen.

i have restarted, reset settings, wifi on/off, closed the message app, iMessage on/off, signed out of iCloud and signed back in but no luck. You can reply to the message on the locked home screen but can’t open on the app. Any ideas?

Hello,


About the only other thing you can do at this point is to restore your iPad to factory settings.
