Hi Tony,

I will go ahead and lock this thread as it has been resolved. Please feel free to come back to the forums if you have any other issues, questions, or just want to create a discussion to talk to fellow gamers.

Hello Tony jansen,

Can you try to uninstall the app from his Ipad, enable the "Join multiplayer games" setting and download it from the App Store again please?

It is possible that the game is not updating properly the settings, and thus crashing.

Please update us on the issue.

Great. This resolved the issue idd. I also noticed that you have to wait some time before the changes are active. Most likely because they have to replicate I presume.

Many thanks

Please, let us review if all these options are enabled:
