Unable to Complete Initial Setup - Apple

If setup screens freeze, buttons don't respond, or you can't proceed past account creation, try these troubleshooting items.


1. Ensure All Permissions are Granted Manually
     Even if prompted, check Settings > Pistol Boundaries > Enable all toggles for required features (e.g., Microphone for voice features, Contacts if applicable).


2. Clear App Cache or Offload
     Go to Settings > General > iPhone Storage > Pistol Boundaries> Offload App (this removes the app but keeps data) > Reinstall or choose Delete App and reinstall fully.


3. Check Internet during Setup
     Setup often requires online verification. Ensure strong Wi-Fi.
      If using cellular, confirm data is enabled. Go to Settings > Cellular > Cellular Data.


4. Avoid Multitasking during Setup
     Close all other apps via App Switcher before starting.


5. Reset Network Settings if Freezes Persist
     Go to Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPhone > Reset > Reset Network Settings. This clears Wi-Fi passwords and VPN configs.


5. Test on Another Device
      
If possible, try setup on a different iOS device to isolate if it's device-specific.
