Hi there! I see you're running into an "unable to parse preferences proto" error when trying to enter a shot in the Shotsy GLP-1 Tracker. To start, could you tell me if this error happens every time you try entering a shot or just occasionally? Also, have you tried restarting the app or your device yet?
This error message usually means the app is having trouble reading some saved settings (preferences) on your device. Here’s a step-by-step approach to try and fix it on your Android 10 device:
1. Restart the App: Close the Shotsy app completely (remove it from recent apps) and then reopen it to see if the error persists.
2. Clear Cache: Go to your device Settings > Apps > Shotsy > Storage > Clear Cache. This can remove temporary data that might be causing the issue.
3. Update the App: Make sure you have the latest version of Shotsy installed from the Google Play Store. The app’s developers have released fixes for crashes and bugs like this in recent updates.
4. Clear App Data: If clearing cache didn’t help, try clearing the app data (Note: This may remove any locally saved data, so make sure your shots are synced or backed up if possible). Go to Settings > Apps > Shotsy > Storage > Clear Data.
5. Reinstall the App: Uninstall Shotsy and reinstall it fresh from the Google Play Store.
If after these steps the error still appears, it might be an issue with the app’s data migration or preferences parsing that needs an update or fix from the developers. In that case, consider contacting Shotsy’s support through their app page or website.
Would you like me to guide you through any of these steps in detail? And before we go further, have you done any of these already? That way I won't repeat any steps you've tried.
Thanks for confirming the error message again. Since the "unable to parse preferences proto" error points to the app having trouble reading saved settings on your device, and you didn’t mention having tried any fixes yet, let's go through a focused set of troubleshooting steps tailored for your WebKit browser on Android 10:
1. Refresh the Browser Cache: Since you’re using a WebKit-based browser to access Shotsy, try clearing the browser cache: - Open your browser's settings. - Find Privacy or Storage settings. - Clear the cached data and site data for Shotsy’s web app if possible.
2. Reload the Web App: After clearing cache, close and reopen the browser, then reload the Shotsy web app and try entering a shot again.
3. Check for Browser Updates: Make sure your WebKit browser is up to date via the Play Store or your device’s app manager to avoid compatibility issues.
4. Try Incognito Mode: Open a private or incognito browser window and access Shotsy to see if the problem is related to stored cookies or local storage.
5. Try a Different Browser: If possible, open Shotsy in a different browser like Chrome or Firefox for Android to check if the issue is browser-specific.
If none of these steps help, it could be a deeper issue with how the web app’s preferences data is saved or read on your browser or device. In that case, reaching out to Shotsy's official support with details about your browser and OS could expedite a fix from their side.
Let me know if you want help with any of these steps or want to try another approach! Are you satisfied with this plan so far?
