  • 2-core processor;
  • 1 GB of RAM minimum;

So you have installed messenger on your iPhone, but the program does not start, crashes or works incorrectly. The first thing you need to do – is to restart the device and try again. Next, be sure to check the Internet connection – without it the application cannot authenticate on the server, so you will be offline. It is impossible to send message and call – you only see old correspondence and materials.
