Scratch 3.0 is broken for mobile

Whenever I try to use scratch on my iPad which is how I access scratch it just crashes. I can’t check my friends projects, I can’t make projects, and I can’t edit my projects. I never had this problem with 2.0 and also when I try in my computer it also crashes.

The only way to access Scratch 2 on an ipad was to use a special browser

Try using Google Chrome and see if it works.

If it doesn't - publish a link to a project that's not working for you

Thanks for sharing. We’ve heard a number reports of projects not loading or crashing. Sorry to hear that you’re experiencing this! We’re working hard on a fix for this.

In the meantime, does your project have any large assets — like audio files?

No matter what I do, it won't work.

Scratch 3.0 does not work on tablets as they have an unsupported browser. It does however work on phones that are modern enough.

I'm unsure where you have gotten this information, but check out the FAQ for what is supported.

We do have more work to do to make the mobile experience better, but most projects and aspects of the site should work.

That said, I just checked out that project and I saw the issue as well. I've seen this on a few other projects and I'm not entirely sure what it is that causes it, but it's filed in our system.

Sometimes, when I'm using Scratch on my IPad, it unexpectedly crashes onto a brick wall. (u no what i mean)
Also, when I'm trying to type something, the website freezes and breaks. We totally need a Scratch app.
