Resolved [Mobile] iPhone 6 Plus crashing after joining to multiplayer

Terrarian
Playing with an iPhone 6 Plus, crashes when trying to join either a locally hosted game on another device (iPad) or a PC hosted multiplayer server through the internet.
My game loads into the multiplayer world, and I can see my character, though after a couple of seconds the game crashes to the home screen.

Other people can join the same multiplayer worlds (Android Moto G5s, iPad Mini, iPad 5th Gen) and play without issue.

Tried the following:
Closing and re-opening Terraria
Restarting iPhone
Reinstalling Terraria (Didn't restore old data, so new characters)
Starting singleplayer world first, leaving, then joining

Your phone only meets the minimum memory requirements, so you'll need to be playing on a small world. In addition you'll want to have all other apps and browsers closed when playing the game.

So, what size world are you playing on? Does playing on a small world still crash your game?

Hi there @Stepanma01, welcome to the forums. :)

In regards to having to start new characters while you were trying to troubleshoot your multiplayer issues, I wanted to point out that the developers have allowed us to have total control over our files now, so that we can make backups and copies for safekeeping. I encourage everyone to make frequent backups of their files, just the ones you care about. This may be something that you already know about, if that’s the case, then hopefully this info can help others that are stopping by and reading this thread:

Hi,
Sorry for raising this thread up again.
With the new graphics settings update, and all graphics set to low, I can now connect to medium sized multiplayer worlds.
