Hi there! I see your Golf Rival app closes right as it tries to start up. To help you better, could you tell me if this started happening after an update or has it just been like this? Also, have you tried anything so far like restarting your device or reinstalling the app? This info will help me guide you through fixing it smoothly.

Thanks for the extra info! Since other games on your Android 10 device are working fine, it seems specific to Golf Rival. This often happens due to corrupted cache or app data, or sometimes due to a glitch after an update.

Let's try these steps in order:

1. Clear Cache and Data for Golf Rival
- Go to Settings > Apps > Golf Rival
- Tap Storage
- Tap Clear Cache first, then Clear Data (note clearing data resets app settings and requires you to log in again)

2. Uninstall and Reinstall the App
- After clearing cache and data, uninstall the app fully
- Reboot your device (turn it off and on again)
- Reinstall Golf Rival from the Google Play Store

3. Check for Network Connection
- Since the app needs to connect to servers, make sure you have a stable internet connection
- Try switching between Wi-Fi and mobile data to test

4. Update Your Android OS (if possible)
- Sometimes app compatibility issues arise with older OS versions
- Check for any available updates under Settings > System > System Update

If after this it still closes immediately, the issue might be a bug or device-specific compatibility problem. At that point, letting the Golf Rival support team know would be best — you can reach them at [email protected].

Would you like me to guide you step-by-step through clearing cache and reinstalling? Or have you tried some of these before?

Why is only Golf Rival crashing on my Android?

Thanks for asking why only Golf Rival is crashing on your Android device. Based on similar cases, this often happens due to issues specific to the app's interaction with your device system or certain components it depends on.

One common culprit is the Android System WebView, a system component that many apps—including Golf Rival—use to display web content inside the app. If this WebView component gets outdated, corrupted, or conflicts with the app, it can cause crashes right after startup. Some users have reported success by force stopping or uninstalling updates for Android System WebView in their app settings, then restarting the device and trying the app again1.

Additionally, corrupted cache or data within the Golf Rival app itself can cause this behavior. So clearing the app cache and data, uninstalling the app, rebooting your phone, and reinstalling usually helps resolve the crash2.

If your Android 10 OS or the app version is outdated, that can also contribute since app compatibility depends on both. Checking for an Android system update and ensuring Golf Rival is up to date can improve stability.

Would you like me to guide you through checking Android System WebView or clearing the app cache to try those specific fixes next?
