App suddenly shuts down and closes

[AlliJackson]

Hi. I've had an issue with this app randomly shutting down and closing in the middle of me typing or reading threads/information on here. My app is up-to-date. When the app closes on me, it goes back to the main homescreen when I reopen it, instead of where I was reading when I was interrupted by the app randomly shutting down and closing. It is very frustrating. Love the app, other than this issue. Thanks!

Did you check the stay logged in box?

Yes

Which app (iphone or android)?

Also, please let us know which OS and browser versions you are running.

A reminder that we've been allocating more of our resources (time and money) into making the web-based browser version of BYC work seamlessly on all devices / browsers (of which there are millions of combinations), so the apps have been a lower priority.

I don't understand the app. All it does is take waaay longer to open byc than my browser. I didn't see any advantage to having it and deleted it after a couple of days.

I also have this issue on my Android.

App doesn't work with my android phone. It would not even let me log in.

Use the Progressive Web App if you're on Android, not the broken app that can be downloaded through the Play Store.

Thank you. But the drop down menu where the download button should be found, does not appear on my phone. I am using Firefox.
