Sometimes, before an App will work correctly after it is first installed, the iPod needs to be Re-started.

So first of all, try a Re-start by press-and-holding the Sleep/Wake button and use the power off slider that appears. When the iPod has fully turned off - the whirly wheel disappears and the screen is completely black, hold the Sleep/Wake button until the iPod begins its re-start procedure.

If the App continues to crash, try a Reset - same procedure as the Re-start but hold the Home button as well as the Sleep/Wake button.

Finally, if the App still isn't happy, remove the App from the iPod and then re-install it. (Unfortunately, you will lose data from the App.) Do this by connecting the iPod to iTunes and then look on Device/Apps and un-ticking the App. Make sure you click Apply for the removal to take effect. Once the App has been removed, simply tick the box again and Apply to put it back on.
