Netflix app on my iPad crashes when I attempt to search. I have an ipad1. I have removed and reinstalled the Netflix app with no luck. I have hard reset the device. No luck. I have closed all apps and launched the Netflix app, still no luck. I am running the latest iOS.
I've called Netflix several times in the past few months on tis issue. They always say they have never heard the issue before... In the ipad diagnostics, I often see a low memory crash error. I believe the issue would be resolved if they went back to the old search, which was to type into the search box, then click a button to search on the Netflix server and display a results page. I think the instant search must use too much memory for an pad 1. the instant search is ot as good either, because it only searches for titles.
I agree that the issue is with Netflix and memory. My diagnostics show low-memory conditions when it crashes sometimes. I've called Netflix a few times, but they say they have never heard of this issue before. In fact, I believe they need to code it better. I'm guessing that the issue may occur for users who have a lot of movies in their queue. They are loading up EVERYTHING into memory without checking how much they are loading. Then, when you click on the "Search" box, it tries to preload something that has no more room in memory to load. Clicking on the "Search" box should not do anything. Even typing should not do anything. We should be able to turn off instant search and just click a search button after we have typed in search words. This would be a better search method, because it would allow us to search for actors and directors, and keywords, not just movie titles.
When this happens I can double tap the home button and I can see the list of Apps that are running. I then just kill/close the netfilx app. I wait a second or two and launch the netflix app and the ability to seach is restored.
Same issue here. Both iPad and iPhone jailbroken but problem arises only on the former. Quitting app or freeing memory doesn't help. So far I've not found a solution. Have tried various options, including all the "fixes" listed here - no luck.
I have the same issue with the search. It all used to work just fine. Also it crashes when I look up info on a show then I try to change seasons. I'm on an original iPad that's NOT jail broken. Netflix claims they've never heard of this problem and just blame the iPad. No help at all! Hope somehow this gets resolved soon.
Searching is a 2018 American screenlife mystery thriller film directed by Aneesh Chaganty in his feature debut, written by Chaganty and Sev Ohanian and produced by Timur Bekmambetov. Set entirely on computer screens and smartphones, the film follows a father (John Cho) trying to find his missing 16-year-old daughter (Michelle La) with the help of a police detective (Debra Messing). This was the first mainstream Hollywood thriller headlined by an Asian-American actor.[4][5]
A co-production between the United States and Russia, the film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival on January 21, 2018. It was theatrically released in the United States on August 24, 2018, by Sony Pictures Releasing. The film was a financial and critical success, grossing over $75 million worldwide against a $880,000 budget and receiving praise for its direction, acting, unique visual presentation, and unpredictable storyline. At the Independent Spirit Awards, Cho was nominated for Best Male Lead. The film's success launched a titular film series including a standalone installment titled Run, and a follow-up titled Missing.[6]
David Kim lives in San Jose, California with his daughter Margot. His wife Pamela was diagnosed with lymphoma and died before Margot entered high school. One night, Margot attempts to call David, but he is asleep. The following day, David is unable to contact Margot. Believing she is attending her piano lesson, David calls the instructor but is informed Margot cancelled her lessons six months prior. He discovers she pocketed and transferred $2,500 to a now-deleted Venmo account. He calls the police, and the case is assigned to Detective Rosemary Vick. Accessing Margot's social media accounts, David learns she has become a loner since Pamela's death. Vick reports Margot made a fake ID and shows traffic camera footage of her car outside the city, suggesting she may have run away.
Unconvinced, David discovers Margot had been using a streaming site called YouCast and befriended a young woman named Hannah under an anonymous username. Vick reports Hannah's innocence, having been sighted in Pittsburgh at the time of the disappearance. From Margot's Tumblr account, David notices she frequently visited Barbosa Lake near the highway where she was last seen. He finds her Pokmon keychain there, and the police discover her car underwater. Her body is not inside, but there is an envelope with the $2,500. A search party is arranged, but a storm slows the process. After David has an altercation with a boy who claims to know where Margot is, Vick tells him he can no longer participate in the investigation. Undeterred, David visits TMZ, which displays the crime scene photographs, and notices his brother Peter's jacket. He discovers text messages between Margot and Peter, hinting at an incestuous relationship. Upon confrontation, Peter explains they were only smoking marijuana and confiding in each other. He chastises David for being negligent towards Margot, who is still grieving Pamela's death. Vick calls David and tells him an ex-convict named Randy Cartoff confessed to raping and killing Margot before committing suicide.
An empty-casket funeral is arranged for Margot. As David uploads photos to a funeral streaming site, he notices the website's stock photograph features a picture of Hannah. Discovering she is a stock model, he contacts her, and she reveals she does not know Margot and the police never called her. Attempting to contact Vick, he instead reaches a dispatcher who reveals Vick volunteered to take the case and was not assigned to it, despite her claims. He discovers she knew Cartoff through a volunteer program for ex-convicts. Reporting this to the sheriff, David confronts Vick, who is arrested at the funeral. Vick agrees to confess in exchange for leniency for her son Robert. She reveals Robert was using the YouCast account as Hannah to get close to Margot since he had a crush on her. Margot sent the money to Robert's Venmo account, believing he was a working-class girl whose mother had cancer. Ashamed for lying, Robert wanted to return the money in person and followed her to Barbosa Lake to reveal himself. He surprised her by getting into her car, and she ran, with him accidentally pushing her off a cliff into a 50-foot-deep ravine. Assuming the accident was fatal and could be perceived as manslaughter or even first-degree murder, Vick decided to cover up the incident, pushing the car into the lake and fabricating the fake ID evidence. After finding the keychain and the car, Vick turned Cartoff into the fall guy and staged his confession.
Vick claims Margot is still in the ravine, suggesting she could not have lived five days without water, even if she had survived the fall. David tells the police to return, remembering the storm on the third day of the search would have provided her with enough water. The rescue crew finds Margot severely injured but alive. Two years later, Margot applies for college to major in piano. David tells her Pamela would have been proud of her. Margot changes her desktop picture from one of Pamela and her to the one David sent her of the two of them in the hospital waiting room after the rescue, reflecting a closer relationship between them.
The original conception was an 8-minute short film. When Aneesh Chaganty and Sev Ohanian pitched the concept to The Bazelevs Company, the latter suggested it could be expanded into a feature film. While Ohanian was open to the offer and saw its potential, Chaganty was hesitant, since he believed a feature film would stretch the concept and feel too gimmicky. But after coming up with the intro, they felt the film would work.[7] The character, Rosemary Vick, was named after Rosemary's Baby and The Shield's character Vic Mackey.[8] Actor John Cho turned down the role of David Kim at first because he felt that the concept of a movie seen entirely through TV, phone and computer screens was not feasible.[9]
The film was shot on various devices. These include GoPro, drone (unmanned aerial vehicle), news helicopters, mini dv cameras, webcam, and even director Aneesh Chaganty's iPhone, which became the main camera.[7] The scenes between Cho's David Kim and Debra Messing's Rosemary Vick were all shot in one house, with Cho on one side of the house and Messing at the other.[9] Actress Michelle La described the filming process as a "logistical nightmare".[9]
Initially started as a joke, an alien invasion subplot was created by using snippets of news articles, Facebook comments, or hashtags and "fit into the timeline and main plot of Searching without taking away from it."[10]
The film had its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival on January 21, 2018, under the title Search.[14] Shortly after, Sony Pictures Worldwide Acquisitions acquired distribution rights to the film for $5 million.[15] It was initially scheduled to be released on August 3, 2018, but was pushed back to a limited release on August 24, 2018, before opening wide on August 31, 2018.[16][17]
On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 92% of 263 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 7.5/10. The website's consensus reads: "Searching's timely premise and original execution are further bolstered by well-rounded characters brought to life by a talented cast."[23] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 71 out of 100, based on 34 critics, indicating "generally favorable" reviews.[24] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "A" on an A+ to F scale, while PostTrak reported filmgoers gave it a 78% overall positive score.[20]
