Shuts Down automatically

The app has been shutting itself down for a week once I only write a word to translate, really annoying. I tried uninstalling, I have the newest version of both app and IOS. I turned the Ipad down. I hope someone will do sth about it. I have been using the app for more than a year and there has never been such a problem. At the same time, I do not have this problem on my Iphone.

Это был один из лучших немецко/рус переводчиков, после множества обновлений приложение превратилось в помойку, сейчас постоянно вылетает ошибка на любых языках, и ничего не переводит.

Problem mit iPadOS 26.4

Ich mag die App, aber jetzt, nach einem OS-Update, stürzt sie immer ab. Auch De- und Neuinstallieren/ Neustart half nichts.
