Memory problem
Now, sometimes when we don’t restart our Galaxy S6 for a while, the apps start freaking out. They freeze and crash for no reason. It’s like they’ve lost their minds. But don’t worry, we can fix it. Try turning your Galaxy S6 on and off. Sometimes that’s all it takes. But if it doesn’t work, here’s what you need to do:
- From the Home screen, tap on Apps.
- Swipe left or right until you find Manage Applications and tap on it.
- Find the application that keeps crashing and tap on it.
- Finally, tap on Clear Data and Clear Cache.
It’s due to a lack of memory
Oh no! It seems that some of your apps aren’t getting enough memory to function properly. The solution? Uninstall any unused or rarely used apps and delete some media files to free up some space in your phone’s memory. Trust me, it’ll make a huge difference.
So there you have it! These are some of the solutions that should help you fix the freezing and crashing problem on your Galaxy S6. I really hope they work for you. If not, don’t give up. There are always more options out there. Good luck!
