Hi! I understand your UCLA Mindful app is frequently stalling or freezing during talks and meditations on your Android 10 device using WebKit. That can interrupt your mindfulness practice, so let’s see if we can get it running smoothly again.
To start, have you noticed if the freezing happens at specific points, like right when a meditation starts or randomly? Also, was the app working fine before or is this a recent issue?
Meanwhile, here’s a step-by-step approach you can try:
1. Close background apps: Sometimes too many apps running can slow your device down and cause freezes. Try closing all other apps before opening UCLA Mindful.
2. Clear app cache: On Android, cached data can get corrupted: - Go to Settings > Apps > UCLA Mindful app. - Tap Storage, then Clear Cache. - Restart the app and see if it improves.
3. Check Battery Optimization settings: Android may restrict background activity to save battery, which can cause apps to stall. - Go to Settings > Battery > Battery Optimization (or Special app access). - Find UCLA Mindful and set it to “Not optimized” or “Don’t optimize.” This will allow the app to run smoothly even if in the background.
4. Update or reinstall the app: Ensure you’re on the latest version from Google Play. If you are, uninstall and reinstall to clear any corruption.
5. Restart your device: Sometimes a simple reboot can refresh system processes and clear temporary glitches.
If you’ve tried these already, let me know which ones, and we can go deeper—for example, checking network stability or app permissions. Also, do you use any VPNs or security apps that might interfere?
Let me know how it goes or if you want me to guide you through any of the steps! Are you satisfied with this troubleshooting approach so far?
