In our earlier posts, we reported that a lot of users are posting about the crashing issue with the Twitter app on the Android platform. Some users posted that the app is not opening after updating it to the latest version on Google Play Store, while some reported that they are using the older version of the Twitter app and still facing the crashing issue.
Well, Twitter officially acknowledged the issues with the Android app of Twitter and posted an update with the official account of Twitter Support. In the tweet, Twitter also suggested its users to not update and download the latest version of the app. You can check out the official tweet below.

How to fix Twitter crashing issue -


If you are still using the older version of the Twitter app, first you need to turn off the auto-update feature in the Google Play Store. For this, go to the Play Store app then head to Settings > Auto-Update Apps > Don’t Auto-Update Apps. You can enable this feature later, as it will stop other apps on your device to download the updates automatically.
Well, if you are already using the latest version of the app and still facing the crashing issue. You just need to clear the Twitter app’s cache memory. To do this, head to Settings > Apps > Twitter > Storage and cache > Clear Storage > Clear Cache. This will fix the crashing issue, but this also reset the app data and you will need to sign-up with your account again.
If you are still facing any issues or need any assistance with the steps mentioned above, let us know in the comments section below.
Many readers commented on this post and mentioned that the app is still crashing after clearing the cache memory. Well, if you have tried this method and still it’s not working, try the method mentioned below.
You can try installing the previous version on your device. To do this, first of all, uninstall your Twitter app. And visit the link below to download the previous version Twitter APK on your device. After installing the app, you can use it normally.
If you do not want to download the app from a third-party app store, but you need to access Twitter, we recommend you to use the Twitter website on any internet Chrome browser. You can also use Twitter Lite if the app is available in your region.
Kindly share this post with your friends who might need to fix this issue.
Just in case, if the app still crashes, we recommend you to wait for the official update for the app on Play Store.

Google can now help you figure out that song stuck in your head - all you have to do is hum (or whistle) into your phone

  Google just launched its “hum to search” feature, which allows users to hum, whistle, or sing for 10–15 seconds in order to identify a song. The feature currently works in 20 languages, and Google hopes to add more. Google has finally launched the perfect feature for when a song is stuck in your head but you don’t know any of the words. “Hum to search” launched today on both the Google app for iOS and Android, according to Google’s blog, The Keyword. Users can also whistle or sing directly into the mic to identify a song. The technology works like this: the user can hum (whistle, or sing) for 10–15 seconds, and then Google’s technology takes the song’s melody and turns it into a numbers-based sequence. From there, the sequence can be used to “identify songs based on a variety of sources, including humans singing, whistling or humming, as well as studio recordings,” according to Google’s announcement. The sequence also strips away any other outside noise, like accompanying instru...

Ransomware's Dangerous New Trick Is Double-Encrypting Your Data

  Ransomware groups have always taken a more-is-more approach . If a victim pays a ransom and then goes back to business as usual-hit them again. Or don’t just encrypt a target’s systems; steal their data first, so you can threaten to leak it if they don’t pay up. The latest escalation? Ransomware hackers who encrypt a victim’s data twice at the same time. Double-encryption attacks have happened before, usually stemming from two separate ransomware gangs compromising the same victim at the same time. But antivirus company Emsisoft says it is aware of dozens of incidents in which the same actor or group intentionally layers two types of ransomware on top of each other. “The groups are constantly trying to work out which strategies are best , which net them the most money for the least amount of effort,” says Emsisoft threat analyst Brett Callow. “So in this approach you have a single actor deploying two types of ransomware. The victim decrypts their data and discovers it’s not act...
