Threads is crashing? No problem, you’re not alone. We’ve got the solution for you right here.
Instagram Threads is proving popular with over thirty million users in its first day of launching. Users are comparing it to Twitter with a similar set up of tweets and retweets but instead threads and reposts. However, as like the majority of new applications, there are still some issues. Here are some tips if your account is “not permitted” or if you no longer want the app and would like to delete your account.
But for now, lets focus on how to fix the Threads app if it is crashing.
How to fix Threads crashing
Fixing Threads should be straightforward and may require a simple solution. Below we have compiled an easy-to-read list on how you can fix Threads from crashing.
Check internet connection
Sounds simple but sometimes its the most obvious solution which is the most helpful. Make sure you have a strong internet connection as otherwise the application may crash.
Check server status
Checking Threads server status ensures that you know the website isn’t down and causing the crash. Do this by checking the application itself or keeping an eye on their Instagram account or IGTV.
Check device compatibility
To make sure your device with the Threads application, go ahead and try log in on another device. This way, if the problem reoccurs, you know Threads crashing is not an issue with your device.
Restart device
Again, sounds simple but it’s effective. Restarting the device helps clear any lagging issues that could be causing disruption or crashing on Threads.
Restart Threads
Same as restarting device, sometimes the application might need a refresh. To do this head to Settings > Apps > Threads > Force Stop.
Why is Threads crashing?
Threads could be crashing for a number of reasons. This is fairly normal for new applications, especially ones with over 30 million downloads in its first 24 hours. So, don’t panic if you’ve run into this issue. The most likely reasons for the Threads app crashing it because there could be an issue with the application itself or that it is under maintenance. Alternatively, the application could be crashing because of weak internet connection.
Another reason could be because the app needs updating so keep an eye out for updates on the App Store or Google Play Store.
