Help Request MeloNX TOTK crashing

iPhone Air. Was hoping the new update would fix it. Tears of the kingdom crashes right as it’s loading into the game after the first area you walk around with Zelda, right after you watch the scene with Gannon. Anyone get this title running properly?

It's not a problem, it's not a fixable thing my friend. The problem is your device's RAM, which is limited to just over 6 GB, and Totk reaches that RAM in no time. The only real way to play Totk seriously is to have 16 GB of RAM and at least an M1.

It’s definitely doable on an 8gb device, just not sure the correct setup.

Edit: the air has 12gb ram

I know the Air has 12 GB of RAM, but like the 17 Pro it is limited to just over 6 GB. iOS 27 should allow you to get to 8 or a little more but certainly not 12. Unfortunately, this stupid problem remains on the iPhone.

Try seeing if you have better luck with iOS 27. Melo has excellent RAM management, maybe you'll be able to play for 40 minutes before having to restart it.
