The standalone version of Norton VPN crashes on iOS 18.5. Specifically, when the network environment is poor, launching the application results in the screen remaining stuck on the yellow logo interface for approximately 20 seconds before an automatic crash. Previous versions also exhibited this issue, but users could access the main interface by disabling the network. However, the latest version crashes immediately upon launch.
Can you describe what you mean by the “network environment is poor”? Any VPN needs a steady internet connection to function. If you have a connection that drops out and in, it will affect the operation of the VPN app.
Do you also have Norton 360 iOS installed? If so, does the VPN function in 360 also behave the same way?
