The same is happening to me. I've updated the app, forced stop, restarted my phone, uninstalled and reinstalled the app and it's still happening. 

 

Any ideas?

Having same problem on Android phone (Samsung  s10e). Tried clearing cache, forcing stop, uninstalling and restarting phone. Only happening with exercise and via main app and widgets.

Best Answer

Android app upgraded to v. 3.19.1 today. 

It all works fine except crashes when going to view exercise.

Cleared app cache, restarted phone.  No better. 

March 1 2020 OS security patch level.

Best Answer

Same. Everything else works on the app, but as soon as you tap on the weekly exercise section to see the stats of my run, the app crashes.

 

Tried restarting phone. Tried uninstalling app. Tried logging in and out of app. None of these have any affect. 

Best Answer

Same problem here on Samsung Galaxy A8.

 

I have forced stop, unistalled, rebooted, cleared my cache.

 

When I install the app again, I can check my exercise ONCE. There are informations missing. Then, when I go check again to see if it still working, it crash.

Not overly convinced it's the latest version of the app that's the problem.  I uninstalled the latest version v3.19.1 and reverted to v3.18 using an @PK I download from a trusted site.  Same problem, crashed the moment I attempt to review my exercises.  Only thing that's changed for me today was the installation of the latest Google Android Security patch, dated April 1st.  Begining to wonder if that's the underlying cause

Just did my workout, went to check the results on the excercise tab on the Android app (pixel 3 xl) force crash. Deleted cache. Same thing. Uninstalled app. Reinstalled and the excercise tab works 1 time but upon exiting and trying again. App goes back into crashing each time excercise tab selected. Workout was updated. I can see it saying 2/5 and shows on websites dashboard. Didn't do this yesterday.

same thing is happening to me today, went for a run at lunch with my versa, pixel 2, used the connected GPS, was looking through the exercise tab after my run because the gps shorted me about 750 meters on my distance, then the app crashed on me, and has kept crashing constantly since then, I have cleared cache, data and restarted, I have uninstalled and reinstalled and restarted my phone numerous times with no success. It was frustrating enough to have the run short my on the distance, I mean it has it mapped in google maps so I don't understand why it would calculate the wrong distance and now it crashes constantly. The other interesting thing is that the workout doesn't show up on my watch when I swipe, but it does show up on the website dashboard, I don't know it doesn't make any sense to me

I think my problem may be because I did not log out whe I finished exercising yesterday, and the exercise  log was running  for almost 24 hours! 

This seems to have caused a 'meltdown' in the app?
