When you’re using your favorite app and it abruptly stops and you’re led back to the home screen, it can be really unpleasant.
This commonly happens when your Wi-Fi or cellular data connection is slow or inconsistent, leading apps to crash. A lack of storage capacity on your device might also cause Android apps to crash. When you overburden your device’s internal memory with large apps, this can happen.
If you want to change that, keep reading! Here are several simple options for resolving the issue:
Force Stop The Apps
The simplest solution to fix an app that keeps crashing on your Android phone is to force close it and then reopen it.
- To do so, go to Settings -> Apps and pick the crashed app.
- After that, tap the app’s name and then ‘Force stop.’
- Re-open the app and see whether it works this time.
Uninstall Updates On Android System Webview
Android System WebView is a stripped-down version of Chrome that allows you to open links within the program you’re using rather than leaving it. You can fix the crashing issue by blocking Android System WebView updates, which can be done in just a few steps:
- Go to your Android device’s Settings area.
- Go to Apps and select it.
- Locate Android System WebView and select the three-dot menu.
- Uninstall Updates is selected.
- Restart your mobile device.
Check App Permissions
Permissions enable the imposition of specific restrictions, primarily to protect data and code. Without these, code security could be jeopardized, resulting in functional flaws. Select the app from Settings > Apps. Now go to ‘Permissions’ and grant the permissions you had previously rejected.
Reinstall apps
Android apps can crash if they are installed incorrectly. You must first download the App from the Google Play Store and then use it only when it has been installed successfully and completely on your smartphone. If one of your apps suddenly stops working, erase or uninstall it from your device and reinstall it after a few minutes.
- Go to Settings > Apps to uninstall Apps from your device.
- Tap on Uninstall after selecting the app you want to remove.
- Install the app again from the Google Play Store.
Factory Reset
If none of the other ways are successful in resolving the app that keeps crashing on Android, you can attempt this last option.
When you factory reset an Android phone, all of the files and settings are erased, giving your device a fresh start. First and foremost, make a backup of your Android phone:
To reset your factory data, go to Settings > Backup and reset > Factory data reset > Restart the device.
