Not working on iOS v12.4.8 iPad Air

6.1 is latest version for this iOS and iPad model, and ideas only crash during playback. Old videos that used to work don’t anymore.
I have pro, and this app is now useless.

No longer seems to work

It’s Playing has been my go-to app for videos on my ipad for years. Now when I try to open files it just freezes. I’ve tried reinstalling. May be a compatibility issue with iPad Pro 11, but I also see it hasn’t been updated in years. I’d now recommend something else, though I miss that I could do everything on It’s Playing until now.
