Why won’t my SiriusXM App Connect?
SiriusXM Keeps Crashing: iOS – Restarting your device can resolve many issues, so always give that a try first. You should also check your internet connection; make sure you have an active WiFi connection or that SiriusXM has permission to run on mobile data if no WiFi is available.
If the service is experiencing any outages, that will also interfere with your experience. Fortunately, other SiriusXM users will be talking about it, so if there’s a service-wide outage, you’ll typically be able to tell immediately with a quick search. When you’ve restarted the app, don’t notice any improvement, and already know it’s not an outage, the next step should be clearing the app’s cache.
To clear SiriusXM’s cache on iOS:
Tap the Settings app and look for SiriusXM in the list. Tap SiriusXM and look for Clear Cache. Tap the toggle to clear the cache.
Signing back in after clearing the app’s cache should solve any issues not fixed with a restart. If you’ve tried everything else here and SiriusXM keeps crashing, delete the app and give it a fresh install. To uninstall SiriusXM on iOS:
Tap and hold the SiriusXM icon. Select Delete and confirm you want to remove it. Open the App Store and search SiriusXM, Tap Install.
Open the app, sign back in, and ensure everything works correctly. If SiriusXM keeps crashing after a fresh install, your device may have a compatibility issue. You’ll have to wait for SiriusXM to roll out an update, but app developers typically fix compatibility and crashing problems as quickly as possible. However, sometimes devices are old enough that an app stops working correctly.
Can the SiriusXM app be used on multiple devices?
SiriusXM Streaming is limited to just one login at a time, per subscription. If another member of your household is sharing your login and you both like to listen often, you may want to consider adding another subscription. Was this article helpful?
