Lots of reports of apps crashing on android today.
Mrs P_F going mad because of it.
Updating Chrome fixed the issue for me. Newer versions of Android don’t use WebView and it’s disabled by default.

Ah that explains why I cannot access my email on my phone.
Mine stopped working last night too, but seems ok today. 
Thanks for that Phil. Google stopped working on my phone last night, it’s android. I’ve had a tech savvy mate looking at it this morning and he was baffled as well. I’m absolutely clueless with anything technical. Basically when I bring up google and tap on anything it just freezes for about 10 seconds then automatically goes back to screen display. Everything else is fine, Whatsapp, Sotonians etc.

One day I’m sure some forum members will visit here and understand the actual horror of that statement 
Apart from the 2 young Ladies who work in the local Notary office tbf.
And the local news presenter.

Android nightmare.
Bought phone in Dubai. My Samsung Account cannot be changed from UAE.
In 2019 I was able to change my Google Play account to Poland & download local apps.
Then. Android upgrade downloaded last August.
Reset the phone to UAE INCLUDING Playstore.
How the fvck do I get out of this mess?
Need to download the Covid app ffs

Switch between existing country profiles
Important: You can change your Play Country once per year. If you change your country, you’ll need to wait a year to change it again.
- Open the Google Play Store app
. - At the top right, tap the profile icon.
- Tap Settings
General Account preferences Country and profiles . - To change countries, tap the name of the one you want to change to.
.
General Tip: Your profile can take up to 48 hours to update.
Yeah.
The Android update that switched automatically was about 8 months ago.

But thx
My phone is bugging me to do an Android update each lunchtime.
Anyone else done it? Did it work? Any bugs?
Should I wait til I get to UK seeing I need my phone to get on the plane!
Absolutely, depends what the updates are but you don’t want to tempt fate now do you??

Ok you geniuses. Sort this.
My phone/broadband cable for cut through. (See Annoyances). Since reconnection, my BT box goes completely dead every hour or so and has to have a reboot to recover and my Bose Soundtouch happily searches my Deezer catalogue, announces the track’s loading, then fuck all happens.
Bose blame Deezer. Deezer blame Bose. Then they jointly blame the BT router. BT haven’t got a clue. An IT friend suggests it’s a portal mapping problem, whatever the fuck that means.
Please note, I am not particularly disposed to witty replies at present.
