For the last several hours, thousands of Android phone owners are complaining that the many apps including Amazon, ESPN, and others are randomly crashing soon after opening the app.
It has to be noted most of the complaints are from Samsung phone owners, particularly those who own premium models such as Galaxy Note20, S20, and A70 series, among others.
Many took to Reddit, Twitter, and social media platforms to vent their anger on the South Korean company and also sought a solution to the annoying issue.
Samsung has responded to one of their customers on Twitter. It has asked to remove the WebView update and restart the phone.
Go Settings > Apps > tap the three dots in the top right corner > show system apps > search for Android System WebView > select Uninstall updates.
Even Gmail and Chrome in other Android phones were facing a similar crashing issue, Google has a similar solution for the Gmail crash.
"We have resolved the issue with WebView that caused some apps on Android to crash for some users. Updating Android System WebView and Google Chrome via Google Play should now resolve the issue,” Google Spokesperson told DH
