If Simply Draw is freezing, crashing, or running slowly, don’t worry - this is usually quick to fix! Try the steps below for your device. 💪
On iPhone or iPad (iOS)
1. Close and reopen the app
Swipe up from the bottom of your screen (or double-tap the Home button), then swipe Simply Draw away. Open it again and see if that helps.
2. Restart your device
Turn your device off, wait a few seconds, then turn it back on. This often fixes small glitches.
