    When an app or site crashes, it can be due to various reasons including bugs, compatibility issues, hardware limitations, corrupt data or insufficient resources. Here are some common fixes that you can try to resolve the issue:

    Restart the App
    Close the app completely and relaunch.

    Check for Updates
    Outdated apps might crash if they’re incompatible with newer operating systems. Regularly update apps to ensure you have the latest features and bug fixes.

    Restart the Device
    A simple restart may resolve issues by clearing your device’s memory and closing background processes which might be causing conflicts or using too many resources.

    Clear Cache and Data (Android and PC)
    Apps store temporary files and data in cache, which can become corrupt. Clearing the app’s cache can solve performance issues without affecting your data.

    Check App Permissions
    Sometimes an app may crash because it’s been denied critical permissions (like access to storage or location services). Make sure the app has all the permissions it requires.

    Free Up Device Storage
    Insufficient storage can cause crashes. Try freeing up device memory by deleting unnecessary apps, files and cache data./

    Reinstall the App
    Uninstall and reinstall the app, ensuring you’re using the latest version.

    Check for Software Updates
    Ensure your device’s operating system is up to date.

    Review App Compatibility
    If your device is very old, it might not be compatible with the latest version of the app. Check the app requirements to ensure compatibility with your device.

    Report the Crash
    If none of the above troubleshooting steps work, please contact silenthillsupport@genvid.com

    Corrupted network settings could be causing connection problems. Reset these settings on your device.

    Disable VPN or Proxy (if applicable)
    If you’re using a VPN or proxy, it could be interfering with the app’s ability to connect to its servers. Try disabling these tools to see if that resolves the issue.

    Check App Permissions
    Sometimes an app may crash because it’s been denied critical permissions (like access to storage or location services). Make sure the app has all the permissions it requires.

    Use Another Device
    If possible, try to use the app on another device. This step can help determine if the issue is with the app in general or just on your original device.
