Mobile App Troubleshooting

Steps to resolve app crashes, freezes, or misbehavior on mobile devices.

Definition

Typical steps are force-stopping the app, clearing cache or data, updating the app and OS, checking storage space and permissions, restarting, and reinstalling. Logs and crash reports help vendors. App protection policies may also block functions.

Example

Clear an Android app's cache in Settings > Apps > Storage to fix repeated crashes.

Exam tip

Insufficient storage is a frequent cause of app failures and update issues.
