Startup time iPad apps?

Hello everyone,
Can you please share your startup time of your iPad applications.
Our app (Calculator) is taking around 3-5 seconds to load and it seems that people are complaining about it.
You can try the free version here:
http://itunes.apple.com/app/calculator-x-free/id426007025?mt=8
The paid one is taking a bit longer than the free one 'cos it has skins that we are loading on request only.
If someone have an idea of the startup time optimization please share it
All the best,
Tsvete

You can try a reset and try quitting all apps as well. Very few apps actually run in the background - but when you are seeking answers for an issue like this - try anything that you think might help.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
In order to quit or close apps - Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • New Yourk Times iPad App

    The New York Times app in the App store is not the app demoed at the iPad intro. The intro app had the full times with the crossword puzzle embedded and one subscribed to it. It was to debut on April 3. However, the one available is called the "Editors Edition." Does any one know what's going on?
    Thanks

  • NY Times iPad app refuses to update

    I have the original iPad running iOS 4.3 and continue to have a problem with getting the paid NY Times application to update. It often gets hung up with the spinning gear and never updates. Other times it says it's update but still displays the previous day's news. The only way to fix it seems to be either to cycle my iPad OR to delete the app and reinstall it.
    Yes, I'm logged in with a valid, paid account, and yes, everything else on my iPad works flawlessly. Is anyone else having this problem? Has anyone figured out how to escalate this to the NYT to get their attention, especially since now this is a paid application.

    I had similar problems. I think that the problem is that their new system for providing access to subscribers and limiting it for others has been shaky.
    Yesterday or the day before I reached a point where I couldn't do anything. But a dialog popped up which asked questions that apparently was enough to prove that I have a paper subscription. And then things worked again. Also there is a new version of the app which may be related to their new $ model.
    good luck,

    We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    Have you tried closing all apps via the iPad's multitasking bar and then doing a soft-reset and seeing that helps ? To close all apps :
    iOS 7: double-click the home button to open the taskbar, and then swipe or drag each app's screen from there up and off the top of the screen to close it, and click the home button to close the taskbar.
    iOS 6 and below : from the home screen (i.e. not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    Soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Is there any way to lock an IPAD app? by lock, I don't mean password protect.  My toddler is constantly scrolling out of her apps and this causes frustration as she spends all her time bringing the IPAD back to me to get back in to the app she was playing

  • Slower Startup and Slower app launch time

    Hi, ever since i upgraded to lion, my app launch times and laptop startup times have gotten much slower. Please Help!

    Re:I have noticed more frequently since the 4.3.2 upgrade is a longer delay when I launch the "Settings"  App.
    (in response to Bruce Caucutt)
    I have noticed the same response since I upgrade to 4.3.2 - I have reset the phone after shutting down all the Opened Apps, no change. Checking this out a bit more I found that the 4 sec. White screen only appears if you are Launching the Settings App first time, there after it appears almost instantly. It seems it just taking a little longer to launch in the first instance.

  • Had iPad apps on iTouch and they ran fine. synced several times

    I have a new iPod iTouch. I have downloaded several  iPad apps on iTouch and they ran fine. I synced several times with not a problem.  Now the iPad apps have disappeared off my iPod ITouch. I have not deleted them and the iPad apps remain in my library.  Not sure why they have disappeared and I can't get them to download back to iTouch. I have deleted the iPad apps from my library and re-downloaded but they won't sync.  I had a previous iOS and updated to iOS6.1.3 version.

  • After syncing a replacement iPad for the first time, my apps have a "waiting " on the screen I can access them but not on opening screen

    After syncing a replacement iPad for the first time, my apps now have a"waiting" message . I can still access from settings but not on the opening app page

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
    If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

  • IPAD App for SAP without Middleware

    Hi experts,
    I am new about mobility topics and I am involved in a new project that consists in developing iPAD apps using data from SAP ECC and saved into the tablet.
    In my business scenario there will be about 1.000 users that need to synchronize data from SAP ECC with the following characteristics:
    Volumes
    Basically there are 2 type of data to store into the iPAD:
    Clients assigned in Portfolio (about 1500 clients per User to download)
    Static data (i.e. configuration table/parameter)
    Let's assume that the size of data exchanged is about 3 Megabyte
    Frequency
    The initial upload has to be made once a year and thereafter once a day it should be checked for updates
    At the very present time we are supposing to use web services calling SAP ECC in order to retrieve and store data.Is there any particular drawback in doing it without a Middleware?
    I have heard about Sybase, but I cannot find the real advantage since it seems to be another database where data can be replicated into it. As for the device management console, my client is adopting yet AirWatch.
    I have also heard about SAP Netweaver Gateway but I cannot catch the real advantage into using it.
    Thanks
    E.

    Hi Emanuele,
    In your case, SUP would provide the development tools, framework and APIs to easily handle the authentication, synchronization etc. You wouldn't need to define your own synchronization mechanism, it's in the product. Now if the updates are only sent from the server to the mobile devices, this shouldn't be to difficult to handle even without SUP.
    You could easily create REST Web Services using Gateway and then consume them using the mobile devices. You don't want to consume SOAP Web Services using a mobile application, trust me. You could do this using the ICF (Internet Communication Framework) to  achieve this but again it would be easier with Gateway.
    You don't necessarily need SUP or Gateway to create only a simple mobile application. But then if your customer is happy with their first mobile application, they'll want more. And then products such as SUP or Gateway can make the difference. These products prodvide a standard development environment, tools to manage the apps and the users etc. With multiple mobile apps connected to multiple back-ends with more and more users, you'll need a middleware to manage all this and make sure the performance is great.
    Usually people don't use SUP or Gateway for their first mobile application but then they start to see the benefits of mobility and they want more. And then they start to realize the benefits of these products and they understand that a real mobile strategy has to be defined etc.
    Regards,
    Pierre

  • IPad app won't download and can't delete it

    An iPad app I have previously installed had an update which I went to install as usual.  The download  is stalled on "waiting" and won't progress.  I can't delete the app because when I hold it down it wiggles but the "delete x" won't show.  The App Store keeps telling me there's an update but the app just won't move on from waiting.

    Have you tried a reboot? Press and hold the home and power buttons simultaneously until you see the Apple. Release the buttons and let the ipad restart. Many times this clears out whatever is hanging the app.

    http://ipadacademy.com/2010/11/ipad-frozen-how-to-force-quit-an-app-reset-or-res tart-your-ipad
    If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.
    If that doesn't work:
    •  Log out of your iTunes store account.  Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
    • Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
    • After restart, the Waiting should be gone.
