Crash after Launch on iOS
-
Hello everyone
Vivaldi started to crash on launch today.
I wasn't doing anything special when it first crashed, I was accessing a Patreon page and scrolling. Then Vivaldi froze and crashed shortly thereafter.
Since then, when I start Vivaldi, I have less than 10 s of normal functionality after which Vivaldi freezes and crashes. I've already closed the Patreon tab and a few others that I suspected.
What else can I do? I am kind of helpless here.
EDIT: Tried to open Vivaldi in aeroplane mode, to no avail. Still crashes.
EDIT 2: Managed to open the internal about page. It's Vivaldi 6.7.3335.57 (Stable channel), stable (64-bit), Revision 51f1ed3d074c..., OS iOS
Best regards
Björn

Hi,
Any way to Delete cache from the without open it? -
@Zalex108 Thanks for your suggestion. I try to tap myself into the “Clear Browsing Data” menu as quickly as I can and clearing starts (dialogue and spinner shown), but Vivaldi crashes in the process. I've tried about 10 times, but the amount of data that is shown in the menu doesn't decrease between tries.
I'd be obliged for any other ideas.

@Zalex108 I'm afraid that's not possible on iOS, at least there is no way I know of. The OS' app menu only contains items about privileges, default browser, allow XSS and version info.

Facing the same issue on both my iPad & iPhone running on iOS 15.8.2 with the specs:

Entered a bug report ((VIB-741) Vivaldi constantly crashes shortly after start), just in case someone wants to do the same
-
Consider trying the following:
- start Vivaldi and then immediate select the shield icon located next to location field
- select No Blocking (highlighted below) and then Done
Please confirm if this resolved the issue for you and I will then raise a bug report.
-
We received several reports of crash from device with iOS 15.8.2 after updating to 6.7. We are looking into it.
-
It would be great if you (whoever having the crash) could try the snapshot version of the app and see if same happens there too.
Snapshot:
https://testflight.apple.com/join/RHz7zTUBAlso, if it happens please send the crash log. Will help greatly to dig upon the issue.

I meet the same problem with Vivaldi 6.7 on my old iphone 6s running ios 15.8. Previous versions works fine. Then I tried to install TestFlight + last Vivaldi snapshot from your link above with the same results (Vivaldi crashes shortly after launch). First time I meet the Vivaldi crash was after changing option from no blocking to blocking adv + trackers.
-
@LordHelmchen Did so too. Thx for confirmation.
-
@yojimbo274064400 Thanks for the suggestion. Tapping the shield doesn't work at all, no menu etc. The symbol only changes slightly on tapping.
EDIT: Managed to speedclick through the setup menu and switch to “no blocking”. Crashing stopped, hooray! Selecting any of the two block options resumes crashing.
-
@prio Happens for me with the snapshot version, as soon as I select any active block option in the initial setup menu. I've provoked the crash several times, are the logs sent automatically? I couldn't find any menu item.
Also, thank you for your continued efforts!

@chr0n0ss @jmara Thank you so much for testing out. I appreciate it and this will helps us finding the issue since this seems to be happening on device with iOS 15.x.x version.
A couple of questions to both of you:
- When app is crashed for Snapshot, did you get any prompt to send the crash report? You should be getting one usually. Something similar to the one below.
-
Could you confirm the Snapshot version you installed?
-
Did I understand correctly that if you set up the app with No Blocking you can use the app normally without any crash until changing the blocker settings to Blocking?
-
- When app is crashed for Snapshot, no prompt to send the crash report appears.
- Yes, I have Vivaldi Snapshot version 6.3362.4 (6.8.3362.4) installed.
- No in my case. Option for blocking adv + trackers was not saved because of crash so I started with default no blocking option.
-
@jmara Thanks for getting back quickly.
We have an updated snapshot version push later last week version: 6.3370.12 (6.8.3370.12)
But, I guess you don't see that version on Testflight app? -
No, I see no newer version on TestFlight...
Can you please share link as for the previous one? -
- Also no prompt for me when snapshot version crashes
- I also tested with 6.3362.4
- Crash happens as soon as any block option is selected. For me, this is also not saved due to the crash. The block setting had only been saved on my ”normal“ Vivaldi on a previous version and thus the current one crashed constantly. After selecting no blocking the behaviour is as in the snapshot version. Also, after tapping the shield icon on the address bar, in the block menu there is a flashing item ”Applying New Blocker Settings...“ whilst no blocking is selected.
