Android apps not working – Samsung users report issues but Google says it’s working on a fix

ANDROID users are today reporting a series of issues with apps such as Gmail, Yahoo Mail and Google.

Apps on Samsung mobiles are reportedly crashing and having problems opening – but Google says they are working to fix the issues.

Android users have flocked to social media to discuss the app issues they’re facing as they try and find a fix.

One Android user tweeted: “Seems to be a problem with @gmail app on Android at the moment – constantly crashing for me at the moment #Gmail”.

Another posted: “@gmail Hey, your Gmail app is crashing.”

The cause behind the app crashes is said to be due to an issue with the Android System WebView that is used to display web content.

Google has said today that they are aware of the issue – and are working on a fix.

The tech giant said: “We are aware of an issue with WebView causing some apps on Android to crash for some users.

“We are currently working to fully validate the scope and a fix is in progress.”

Google also acknowledges issues with Gmail on Android on the Google Workspace status page.

The company has recommended using the desktop interface until issues are resolved.
