dang it. :(

ok so i made a topic asking if i should buy scribblenauts on my ipod. 2 people said yes, so i bought it (yes i asked my mom). when i opened it the first time, it crashed. second time, it worked. when i passed the first level, my screen froze. i closed the app. i opened it again. it said i passed it, so i went along with it. i did the 2nd level. when i finished, it froze again. i told my mom about it, and she said maybe i dont have enough memory, or maybe its a virus. then my parents took me out for a walk. when i came back i deleted some games and photos for more memory. then i opened scribblenauts, and it crashed. opened it again, and my screen froze and i couldnt even close my ipod! i was like OH NO. then it finally closed, as if it was lagging. when i opened my ipod i saw that the apps i deleted were back for some reason. i opened scribblenauts again and the same thing happened to me again! i told my mom and she said its probably a virus, and to delete before my ipod is broken. i said "but it cost 99 cents!!!!" and she was like and it'll cost more to buy you a new ipod. i was like "okay. " i deleted it, and as i felt so sad. i dont get a lot of chances to buy an app, and one of the few apps i got to buy was a virus.
i feel so sad now. :(i just wasted 99 cents+tax. *sigh*
i know this sounds silly but im 10. even a penny is worth something to me.

That's weird because I have that same exact game it works fine on my ipad and ipod. I don't think the game actually did that also the apps that you deleted you might have done the download automatically option. Otherwise you need to reset your ipod. Also any paid app you delete you can get it right back from the purchased option in the app store.

my mom says sometimes someone puts a virus along with the app so only some people get it. i dont know if its true. also, where is the purchased option in the app store? i dont see it.

i don't know much about apple products, but have you tried turning off and turning your ipad back on? that always works for my computer and (android) phone so i guess you could try that? if it doesn't work, sorry about that :c

You could definitely try to contact apple and see if they can give you a refund or something?

well when my screen froze i kept pressing the close button. when it finally closed, i opened it again. but i deleted it already.  it still says install when i go to the app but im not sure if it means im getting it for free since i already paid. i wanna try downloading it again and see if it still happens. but i have to ask my mom if its free because a already paid. dont want to waste another 99 cents.
@castiel, how do i contact apple?

On android, if you buy an app and uninstall it, you could go back to the play store and it will have a "Purchased" button allowing you to install it again for free since you already paid. I'm pretty sure Apple would do that too, but I don't know much about apple products.

Try sending an email to the staff or going to an apple store.

it's probably a bug. it happened to me, then they updated.
what iOS version do you have on your iPod?
