Basic troubleshooting tips

1. Update Khan Academy Kids: Check that the app is running the latest version from the app stores on your device. If it's not running the latest version, please update the app. 
2. Update device: Ensure that your device is running its latest mobile operating system.
3. Power off: Reboot/restart your device. Please ensure you power the device all the way off before turning it back on. For Apple devices, follow these tips => https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201559. For Android devices, try forcing a restart by holding the power button and volume button at the same time. Hold them down until the phone goes ‘blank’ (finally powers off). Then, start the device again. 
4. Check the network: Try the app from a different network. Sometimes there can be intermittent connectivity issues on certain types of networks that impact the app's performance. There can be network firewalls on school networks that prohibit connectivity to the app, or VPNs on personal routers that conflict with Khan Kids. To test, please disconnect your device from your current network connection, and reconnect to a secondary network such as a public hotspot or a cellular data network to see if you get the same error.
5. Check connection speed: Test the speed of your download connection at www.speedtest.net to verify that the download speeds exceed 1mbps.
6. Check device settings: Try clearing cache and checking/clearing application storage on your device settings. 
7. Enable device permissions: Check your device settings to ensure access to the microphone is permitted for the Khan Kids app.
8. Reinstall Khan Academy Kids: Try deleting and reinstalling the app. However, this will erase artwork in the app's Gallery, so export artwork if possible before deleting it. 
9. Check school network: If you are a teacher or network administrator trying to access the app from a school network, there could be a firewall in place. Check these steps to resolve this issue.
