  • I've read all these replies, and NONE have done a thing. The problem isn't the phone, or firmware or such, but it's with the app directly. The last thing I just did was clear the cache and storage, and it worked semi-fine at first. Didn't have any issues whatsoever, until I signed back in to see if I could view cameras. The moment I was signed it, it immediately started crashing, not even allowing me to view the page with the cameras.

        Phone Model: Google Pixel 7

        Phone Version (Android): 14

        App version: 3.1.1.351

         

        Just to specify the issue, it works entirely fine overall, but it's some issue on the app itself the moment you sign into an account. I can't even force it to the settings, and the app version is according to Android itself, so I'm unsure if it's correct.

      I'm having the same issued. I've rebooted my phone and reinstalled the app 4 times. 3 times before the reboot, and once after. App opens to the home screen and immediately collapses.

        I continually try to see if you (ROKU) have figured out the problem with your app. Today I read reviews for the Roku Smart Home app before re-installing it again for the 50th time and found a way to finally use the app based on one person's review, Melanie Young 10/15/24. That is to TURN OFF APP LOCATION ACCESS AND PERMISSION. So far I have been able to use to app again but we'll see how long that lasts. It is a shame though because I still have zero confidence in your app and can not trust it enough to buy any further products.

      Starts but crashes to home screen when opening the main screen. Been doing it for 2 weeks now. Fix your app. Crashes on multiple devices. Fix your app.

      Other users here in this community are reporting the same issue. I have done all of those steps you've mentioned to no avail. It is the app. Can you please debug the app or check into the app?
